Without complicated technical jargon and with an easy, accessible approach, she explains the basic steps, from preparing beds and composting to harvesting.

About the author

Rosie Daykin is an acclaimed Canadian cookbook author, baker and founder of the popular Butter Baked Goods bakery in Vancouver. In her books, she focuses on honest home baking, seasonal cooking with local ingredients, and the joy of gardening and hospitality.

What You Will Find in the Book

The book is clearly organised according to the individual stages of growing and different types of ingredients. It offers practical advice on choosing vegetables, edible flowers and herbs, complemented by clear instructions on sowing, watering and protecting plants. It includes dozens of original recipes for light seasonal dishes, soups, pies and preserving the harvest for winter, accompanied by full-page photographs capturing garden beds, the harvest and dining al fresco.

Why we chose it

What we enjoy about the book is its unpretentiousness and the natural connection it makes between working in the garden and cooking. It shows that growing food does not have to be perfect to bring joy and wonderful flavour to the plate. It presents a practical approach to the harvest, honest ingredients and mindful care for your own space.
