Experience the unparalleled satisfaction of cultivating your own produce, regardless of your gardening expertise. With just a handful of seeds, water, sunlight, sound advice, and a dash of patience, you'll be well on your way to a thriving garden.

Author Huw Richards demonstrates how to cultivate an abundant, organic, and cost-effective vegetable garden in a single raised bed, ensuring a harvest every month of the year. This meticulously crafted guide offers a month-by-month breakdown of tasks, pest management tips, and harvesting advice. The first year is thoroughly explored, with additional guidance for subsequent years.

Vivid illustrations depict the bed's monthly progression, whilst windowsill planting techniques jumpstart your gardening success. Maintenance instructions ensure both plants and raised bed remain in top form throughout the year. The guide also includes site assessment and raised bed construction details, along with alternative vegetable suggestions to personalise your plot.

Tailored growing plans accommodate various circumstances, from cool climates to low-effort approaches, covering salad beds, winter crops, herbs, and edible flowers. Whether you're tending to an allotment, a modest garden, or even a rooftop terrace, this book empowers you to cultivate a small yet prolific garden yielding fresh vegetables year-round.

With clear, illustrated steps, Richards elucidates every aspect of the process, from bed construction and seed propagation to planting, nurturing, and harvesting. This tome not only shepherds you through the entire gardening journey but also champions sustainable practices, resonating with eco-conscious cultivators.

Veg in One Bed serves as the perfect companion for novice gardeners and those seeking a mentor of their own generation. It expands upon Richards' popular YouTube channel, "Huw Richards - Grow Food Organically", distilling his wealth of knowledge into a month-by-month blueprint for vegetable cultivation. Regardless of your experience or space constraints, this guide enables you to savour home-grown produce throughout the year.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
