Growing Organic Vegetables

This website's objective is to show how nutrient dense, healthy, organic vegetables are grown sustainably in my garden. All the vegetables I grow are described including how seeds are propagated and plants grown. Pest control, crop harvesting and food preservation are described where relevant. My methods are no-dig using homemade compost as a top dressing to maintain soil health and an ideal environment in which to grow vegetables...........................John Ashworth. 29th April 2019.

The beans are at full height and are in flower. The first pods are about 60mm long and I am hoping for a substantial harvest, particularly as I have just bought a small chest freezer to preserve some of them.

This photo was taken after a day of high temperatures (38 deg C max) and drying winds. The shadecloth did a great job of protecting the whole bed using the standard timber framework for support.
