This book, first published in 1908, shares the incredible findings by C.D.McKay when he visited France to see how they managed to produce such beautiful produce over an extended season.

Listen in awe of just how productive hot bed gardening is as a method, learn about how hot beds fed Paris, how gardens in England started to adopt this practice, and why it is so beneficial in terms of food security.

We have had this rare and precious book truned into an audio version to help make it more accessible, and even though a lot of the content is about hot beds, there is also fantastic crop-specific growing advice that can't be missed!

It is a short book packed with so much information; a real gem!
