Harvest year-round from your bountiful and sustainable fruit and vegetable garden.

Huw Richards’ ultimate guide to permaculture gardening, outlining the regenerative methods that make gardening easier to do while being more productive. Huw shows you how to expand your growing beyond annual staples like tomatoes and cabbage to perennial fruits and vegetables, berry bushes, and fruit trees.

By mixing your planting, gardening with the seasons, and optimizing your garden design, you will create a more beautiful and more sustainable garden that is better for the soil, local wildlife, and your crops – without costing more of your time.

The book includes:
  • What to grow: a substantial and comprehensive reference of all the edible plants and flowers you can grow – when to sow, grow, and harvest.
  • Includes perennials that produce every year, maximizing yield for effort as well as introducing new plants to your garden.
  • A permaculture approach: streamline the way your garden operates with ideas on building resilience (for example, how to store water), using vertical space, generating healthy soil, and mixed “polyculture” planting.
  • Aesthetics and environment: how to make your kitchen garden look good year-round by planting ornamental edibles and flowering crops that attract pollinators.
  • Maximizing space: a chapter on spaces helps you grow in shade or a south-facing corner and use pots and climbing varieties up walls and fences to bolster beds and under-cover growing areas.
  • A roadmap for the year ahead guides you through the key moments throughout the four seasons.
Huw Richards is a permaculturalist and digital creator based in mid-west Wales. Aged 12, he created his own YouTube channel about growing your own food. He now has over 900,000 YouTube subscribers and his videos have collectively been viewed over 100 million times. Huw sets out to make growing your own food as accessible as possible. He has already authored several books with DK: Sunday Times bestseller The Self-Sufficiency Garden (2024), Veg in One Bed (2019), Grow Food For Free (2020), The Vegetable Grower's Handbook (2022), The Permaculture Garden (2025), and How to Grow Food (2026).
