Home Farmer Magazine March 2015 Retour à l'édition précédente

Home Farmer is the only magazine dedicated to all aspects of living the 'good life', with articles on growing your own veg, lots of great recipes, DIY projects, renewable energy and looking after smaller livestock like chickens and bees. The March issue goes back to basics with a wealth of traditional Home Farmer features, including gardening in smaller spaces, a special feature on heating your house using renewable energy, some cracking recipes from Yorkshire, and a feature on making traditional raised pies, with specialist advice on hand-raising from an award-winning pie-maker. On the gardening front there’s lots of info on propagating, tips on growing (and cooking) pears, and a money-saving feature from top gardener, Charles Dowding, on creating a hot bed to give all your plants and seedlings that vital head start in life. But that’s not all – we’ve also got an article explaining the different parts that make up the inside of a beehive (prior to next month’s article on assembling a hive), a feature on getting a return from your poultry hobby together with incubation advice, and a special report on the Oxford Real Farming Conference: essential reading for anyone concerned about UK food production and techniques, both now and in the future.
