Month By Month In Our Scottish Gardens

Our gardens change beautifully throughout the year and each month brings something new to sow, plant and harvest. In this monthly series, we explore what our Scottish gardens look like in every season, highlighting the vegetables, herbs, fruit and edible flowers we are sowing and growing in different areas, from raised beds and borders to pots and our food forest month by month, sharing tips and inspiration for gardeners of all levels.
