I'm featured in Kitchen Garden Magazine

I'm really pleased to be featured in this month's Kitchen Garden Magazine (KG) - July edition.

Every month, KG features a grow guide and I was approached to write this article on growing oriental vegetables for their July edition.

It is titled 'Oriental Vegetables at a glance' and covers sowing, planting through to harvesting.

There are also a few recipe ideas for Chinese green vegetables like Kai Lan, Choy Sum and Pak Choi.

I am so excited to fiiiiinally be able to tell you what I got up to this past summer.

Earlier this year, I was asked to take part in a gardening contest on a television series called The Big Allotment Challenge (Series 2)!!! Woohoo!
