Welcome to new listeners who have found their way here from the show review on the Hippyshopper website.

This week’s show is on saving seeds from your garden and which plants are easiest for beginners to save seed from.

If you’re looking for a book on the subject, I can recommend Back Garden Seed Saving, a British book by Garden Organic’s Sue Stickland that explains the basics of seed saving and gives detailed instructions for saving seed for all common vegetables. It’s a good book for beginners.

Seed to Seed is a book by American author Suzanne Ashworth that is highly recommened (although I have yet to read it) and is more comprehensive if you’re looking to expand your seed-saving knowledge – it covers 160 different plants.
