"The last decade has seen a remarkable rise in gardening for the purpose of food production in Ireland. In many ways though, today's gardeners are drawing on a part of Irish heritage that has been important since early Christian times - the use of a small patch of land to cultivate fruit and vegetables." - Book cover
