What is organic vegetable gardening?

Growing vegetables without the use of pesticides and artificial fertilizers.

Instead you rely on building and maintaining good natural soil fertility, crop rotation, green manure crops, good natural varietal resistance, combined with companion planting , inter-cropping and barrier methods for pest and disease management.

For you organic gardeners

This web site provides a host of information to help the organic grower, but please remember there are other gardeners who prefer the 'easy' way and resort to sprays, so forgive me as you will find the occasional reference for them else where in the site.

My techniques are 95% organic, as is my own vegetable garden, but where I draw the line are perennial weeds and slugs when I resort to using the most benign aids to maximise success.

The site is aimed at making life easier for all vegetable growers, so you will find guidance and advice to this intent through out.
