If you only read one thing today, make it Alys Fowler's great article on why we should all be buying #organic #bulbs

Organic bulbs have been around for a while, but the choice was limited. The picture has just got a lot more colourful

We're proud to work with the Three Counties Traditional Orchard Project (TCTOP) to help protect ancient orchards in #Herefordshire, #Worcestershire and #Gloucestershire.

Charity helps preserve ancient orchards When Garden Organic teamed with the Three Counties Traditional Orchard project to help restore declining orchards, something very inspiring happened. The UK has only a small number of ancient orchards, covering an estimated 94 square miles. These beautiful plo... ... See more

It's such a beautiful time of year, how is your #autumn garden looking?

If you bring any pots into the #greenhouse or conservatory check that they aren’t diseased, making sure there is no leaf curl, mottled leaves or mites lurking.

Once you have moved your pots take off the top centimetre of #soil and replace with #horticultural gravel. You can replace this with fresh #compost next spring.🌿

If you find our information useful you could help us to continue providing this advice by donating just £2 to Garden Organic today. Please text TIPS17 £2 to 70070 to donate. Thank you 😃 #fridaytip #organicgardening ... See more

Your Organic Garden in September September sunshine is special - golden and gentle. But the growing days are shorter, with dew drenched mornings and cool evenings. Now is the time to gather your harvest before frosts threaten. And save your seeds before winter sets in. See below for advice on soil,… ... See more

As part of #RecycleWeek we have a very unique and practical way for members to #upcycle The Organic Way once you're finished with it.

Why not have a go at making these wonderful baskets and pots. This creative idea has been sent in by one of our members, Caroline Coode

Thank you Caroline, we think they look great! ... See more

#simpleswitch No.10 - If you buy one plant this year, make it comfrey.

Why? Because you can make the perfect liquid fertiliser from its leaves, by just brewing them in water. Bees🐝and other pollinators will love its flowers too.

Fantastic blog just gone up on the Agricology website written by Sally Cunningham about the value of growing non-traditional crops. We recommend you have a read!

It's the perfect time to sow chard and leaf beet for harvesting from autumn through into winter & next spring. You can find Fordhook Giant, Pink Passion and Golden Chard - all recommended by Alys Fowler - on our leaf greens page here: http://realseeds.co.uk/cookinggreens.html ... See more

Wilt it in butter, put it in a flan, turn it into a gratin… Sow now, and you could be reaping the benefits all winter

Halfway there! Not a bad days work. Our new water tower will help next spring if there's a dry spell just as we put out all the baby plants...

Here's Ian checking the first piece of our new water tower, which we're hoping to put together today. Made from local wood cut by Adrian Krakiewicz on his mobile sawmill, it will be 4m high, with a 2000l tank on top. ... See more

Very unusual pods developing on our edible chickling vetch (Lathyrus sativus). It makes small lentil-like seeds that are eaten in many countries around the Mediterranean. We always have a few experimental things on the go, and this one certainly grows well here. We'll have to wait and see how easy it is to gather the seeds before they scatter though! ... See more

It's finally time to sow Oriental Greens! (If you sow them before midsummers day they just go to flower straight away) But now we can sow all these amazing greens that have been bred for growing really fast from now until winter. These come up quick and are ready to eat cooked or raw in just month or so. Find them all at http://www.realseeds.co.uk/orientalgreens.html ... See more

"Czech Early" aubergine living up to its name! Just about ready by the end of June - not at all bad for an unheated polytunnel in Wales.

Here's experimental tomato 'Blue Fire' under trial in one of the polytunnels. It is very pretty - but not yet ripe enough to taste-test.

Beautiful summer salad - from our seeds: spinach, golden chard, pink passion chard, magentaspreen, fennel leaves, orach, 'green days' oriental green, mange-tout peas, marigold petals, violets, radish flowers and pods & chive flowers- plus elderflowers and rose petals from the hedge. ... See more

Thought people might like to see the nodules on the roots of a broad bean plant. In all 'leguminous' plants - peas, beans etc - this is where the beneficial bacteria live that fix nitrogen from the air for the plant to use, so the plant can grow in poorer soil. The plant in return provides a safe home and sugar for the bacteria to live off. It also supplies oxygen to the bacteria - if you cut a nodule open, it is pink inside. The colour is from the plants 'leghaemoglobin' - just like the haemoglobin in your blood! ... See more

A fine crop of Early Prolific Straightneck is growing in the tunnel. It's been many years since we were able to offer seed of them, so this is quite exciting. Fingers crossed for a good seed harvest this autumn 🙂 ... See more
