Many of us are now looking expectantly at our gardens in anticipation of a decent harvest, but there’s still more we can do to make them more productive, but also more fun too. This month we turn a compost heap into a productive space for courgettes and squash, create a mini pond and bog garden, and invest in a nectar bank with wildlife dividends for veg. We also have a comprehensive expert’s guide to aquaponics and check how scientists at the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew are making sure our gardening future is guaranteed in times of uncertainty. We also feature honey, the mysterious world of auto sexing chickens, recipes from Devon, floral essences, wild cocktails, an investigation into lesser known ‘dos and don’ts’ of cooking oil, and an easy guide to revamping your wardrobe using dyes made with basic kitchen ingredients and utensils. Our feature-packed July issue is now raring to go!
