Hilarious & exciting. My copy arrived a few days ago here in Australia - my comment to my husband was that you wrote so clearly that it was simple to adapt what you were doing to my subtropical climate. An experiment, for sure, but I'm yet to find another writer/gardener navigate the line between simplicity for beginners & more advanced concepts for those who've been gardening for a while. I'm in between, probably more on the beginner side with edibles as I work toward self-sufficiency. Anyway, thank you & congratulations on the release!!
Just what I wanted this morning on my Birthday a bit of Huw honour (Burkup 😂) and a new book to purchase with my Birthday money! A 5 yr old ‘how rude’ but I do love the way you dealt with the put down after all the hard work of putting the book together. I am using your previous book The Self Sufficiency Garden as the master plan for my new allotment this year so yes it is an exciting 2025! Good luck with the nursery (can the public visit when it’s up and running) Shropshire isn’t that far away! Happy Tomato seed sowing I’m off to do the same thing as I have a blissful Birthday day of gardening planned on this beautiful sunny day 🍅🌶️ x
Wow, that’s a scathing review on Amazon - a contemporary of mine studied the environment and permaculture at University in the early 1980’s, at the time he was the only person I knew who was remotely interested in mimicking nature’s processes or learning about ‘global warming’ as it was called then!
Just found your videos and I love all the parts you leave in! Gives us a chuckle and not so “perfect” like other videos. Shows your joy and love for gardening!
Keep doing what you’re doing and keep handling the bad reviews as you have already. I haven’t gotten your book (yet) but I can tell already you know your stuff, so your book must be more of the same! Lots of good info!
Best author response to a negative review ever. Keep doing what you do, Huw.
Ahh thank you so much! I had a bit of fun as you can see;)
Huw have you heard Martin Crawford has been given notice to quit the land his food forest is on?
Yes Martin has been in touch. It's absolutely awful news! I've shared in Instagram and am working on a letter of support!

This five year old sounds special
Congratulations. Your property/projects are so exciting. I'm a bit jealous, your spring seems a bit a head of mine, (West Coast BC Canada) this year.

I got mine yesterday!!😁
I'd love to hear the five year old's review of their parenting skills 😒
My copy arrived earlier in the week and I'm glued to it! I love the illustrations too ❤️
