I live on a 518 sqm suburban section in Auckland, New Zealand.

I didn't always have a little patch of land to call my own and I know what it's like to grow food in containers on my apartment balcony.

Today I'm blessed to have had the foresight to landscape my patch with fruit trees.

We have an abundance of fruit in the autumn that we preserve. There's nothing like eating your own produce in the winter months.

I share my plot with four lovely chickens and a bunch of bees that live in my backyard hives.

You don't need much land to drastically improve the food that you're eating every night.

Let me show you how you can enjoy fresh, organic and nutrient rich food from your urban garden. You don't need a lot of space (like I'm blessed to have) you only need 1 square metre (4x4 feet) to start growing fresh food.
