I've got a clear and intense memory from a couple of decades ago: I am about 6 years old, back in Transylvania, in the village of my grandparents. On a sunny morning, I am seeking ways to the backyard where they had an apiary, and they were also growing all sorts of vegetables and fruits. In this memory I finally find my path, I tear off a huge ripen tomato, and my nearly infinite joyride starts as I push my face into it. It smells so delicious as nothing else; I feel like in paradise and I chew that delicious thing until I finish. Without a thought, then I am already craving the next one. But a couple of minutes later, the idyllic moment dissipates as the bees begin to wake up and start their daily routine. The situation is getting hotter and hotter: thousands of little flying animals want to catch just me, so I realize it's time to go back to my grandparents' house.Probably this short, dream-like memory is my first anchor to tomatoes! The summer vibes, the taste and the smell of that tomato, and the idea of how I secretly embraced it, all led me to the recognition that I want to revive that moment. I must admit that the straightest way to do that is to plant and grow tomatoes in whatever circumstances. Now I am in the present again, and it happened; for years repeatedly, and I do it with greater and greater success and joy.The circumstances of the present? They are great, but not so great as they were at that time: in contrast to the huge fields of the Transylvanian countryside, we live now next to Budapest, the capital of Hungary. This area is more densely populated, and our garden is tinier and shadier. However, I figured out how to grow tomatoes in this new environment and I also found the types of tomatoes that are OK with the shadows.And this is the reason I wrote this little book... to motivate you by sharing my experiences and maybe providing a bit of guidance. To show you that even in not the most optimal parameters, tomatoes can be grown. My goal is not to cover all the aspects of tomato growing, so many tried that already and there is great literature, and I will recommend some of the bests of that at the end of this book.The goal of this book is:to motivate you to grow tomatoes in a suboptimal (shady) environment,to provide hacks to grow tomatoes in shady and little places, andto recommend the best tomatoes to grow in shade.This book is definitely for tomato lovers who do not have the best environment, but still want to try tomato growing and want to have success (in the shadows)!

In local Horsham historian Dr Maggie Weir-Wilson's latest book, we learn about her passion for allotmenteering and about the history and endurance which has ensured allotments continue to be available across our nation for its people to grow fresh, healthy food for their families, and increase their wellbeing. Maggie has been an allotment holder in Horsham for more than ten years and has spent much of the last two years researching the fascinating history of Horsham town's allotment sites, set in the context of our nations battle for the right to establish and hold allotments. From Gerrard Winstanley's initial determination, through to the Swing Riots and Mary Ann Gilbert's experimentation, Sussex, Kent and Surrey have been among the forerunners of the battle to ensure, in the words of Winstanley, "... the earth should be set free from the entanglements of priests and landlords and become a common treasury." In the 17th century Winstanley was determined that local communities would share land, growing their own food so no one went hungry. An equal society invested in their local land and community. In some circles, Winstanley is still seen as the earliest activist in the international allotment movement.Maggie has delved into local archives to uncover the history of each of Horsham's allotment sites, and spoken to many of the committees and plot holders. Her book looks at a history of the establishment of allotments in England, but most importantly it is a celebration of Horsham's allotments. In addition to the local history it uncovers, the book considers the important social activities and exciting new environmentally friendly developments which take these allotment sites into the future.

Here, permaculture practitioner and poet Maya Blackwell writes with expertise and personal experience of the transformative power of permaculture for both people and the planet. As well as tracing its evolution - from its roots in Indigenous societies to the important role it plays in urban allotments today - you will discover how the practice could nurture individual and collective wellbeing. There are opportunities throughout for reflection, creativity and connection. These present valuable lessons we can all learn from the principles of permaculture, to help us build resilience and lean into the long-term process of trying new things, adapting failures and reaping all that we sow. Whether you're completely new to permaculture or someone with years of experience wanting to reconnect with its history and core values, this book contains tools for growth that bring rewards far beyond the garden.
