For this week’s #fridaytip we're sharing our know how on green manures! Now is the perfect time to sow green manures, especially if you have bare soil after harvesting.

These are plants which will improve your soil, such as vetch and clover. Their roots fix nitrogen from the air. Be sure to dig them in after flowering and before seed sets.

If you've got some spare time this #weekend why not take the opportunity to sow your green manures!

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 #greenmanures ... See more

This week's #weedywednesday comes courtesy of the Fat Hen!

Originally grown as a #vegetable, and now considered a #weed, the Fat Hen offers many benefits.

Fat Hen was eaten as a vegetable from Neolithic times until the 16th century when it was replaced by #spinach and #cabbage.

Rich in #vitamin C, it is still grown and eaten in North #India.
The seeds can be ground into flour, and it was grown as food for pigs, sheep - and hens! The leaves are a source of #ascaridole, an oil used to treat infestations of round worms and hook worms.
