Grow your own seeds

a bit about seed cultivation

There is no mystery to growing your own seeds since the plants take care of most things themselves. They want nothing more than to go into flower, form seeds and spread as many of them as possible. And by simple means, we can help the chosen plants and also improve our seed, through selection, year after year.

Perennial vegetables

Perennial vegetables are, just as they sound, vegetables that return year after year without having to re-sow them. There are a number of advantages to giving space in the garden to edible perennials: they are easy to care for, often rich in nutrients and they are resistant to both weather, disease and pest attacks.
