Alex Grows Food

Helping you grow organic food from seed in your home & allotment garden

Based in Cambridge (UK), I a rented a house with a 0.1 acre garden which I've converted to no-dig garden beds and I'm trying to grow even more of my fruit and vegetables than last year. I produce a range of videos on how to sow seeds and you'll see more how to grow guides as the season progresses. I'll also be trying to review items that can help you lengthen your growing season and make gardening easier (and the not so good items you might want to think twice about) and I'll be documenting the growth of my own garden throughout the year.

So if you have access to a garden or balcony, hold an allotment or are toying with the idea of growing your own food, then this is the channel for you.
