Fruit trees, courgettes and foraging on the banks of the River Tay
Nicola Singleton helps you get the very best from your growing space. We’re at Spittalfield in Perthshire to get advice on picking and pruning your fruit tree.
Nicola Singleton and the team help you make the most of your growing space, whatever shape and size it comes in, and inspire you with a weekly seasonal recipe.
We’re at Spittalfield in Perthshire to get advice on picking and pruning your fruit tree from “Appletreeman” Andrew Lear. He’s also got tips for growing courgettes, which is handy since they’re the seasonal ingredient this week. Neil Forbes, Kirsten Gilmour and Carina Contini share their recipe suggestions.
Andrew’s wife Margaret takes us foraging for food on the banks of the River Tay, and shows us how to eat hogweed and sweet cicely.
Then we visit the Beechgrove Garden where Carole Baxter and Helen Needham discuss how to grow fruit in small spaces.
