Why Vigo Presses?
What we do
This beautifully illustrated book is a lyrically persuasive yet highly practical and extensive guide to growing and using your own fruit; it is an invaluable addition to the library of a keen gardener, Vigo customer, and connoisseur of delicious food.
Mark Diacono runs his own organic fruit farm and plant nursery at Otter Farm, East Devon. He leads the garden team at River Cottage where he also runs courses and thus has a wealth of knowledge and experience to share.
Mark covers how to choose what fruit you grow, the choice of varieties suitable for your garden, the tools required and essential terms and techniques of cultivation. This is followed by an exhaustive A – Z of fruit.
It is easy to appreciate why Mark has won so many prestigious national awards for his knowledge and the clarity of his writing makes this book a real joy to read.
