Favourite Series


  • 52 Week Salad Challenge - the year-round salad growing guide that deserves a Page all to itself
  • ABC of Chippenham - this links to my Chippenham Page which lists these posts amongst others
  • ABC of Weather
  • Easy Recipe Finder - my yummy seasonal recipe collection: much easier to look through this way than via blogsearch or my Recipes label
  • Perpetual Events Diary - 2009's monthly series of gardening and related events scooped up into a summary post listing. Most events have continued and each post's links will help to find current dates
  • Plant Profiles - my regular series looking at garden worthy plants
  • You Ask We Answer Dictionary - terms which often bemuse non-UK readers explained in a tongue in cheek way
