Level Zero gardening

Vegetable gardening for ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS - in small steps, with simple tools and few rules, no matter how big or small your place is.

garden to plate

WE GROW & MAKE FOOD - not everything, just the achievable stuff that saves money, tastes great, avoids waste, and works well in our climate.

less waste

WE CLOSE THE LOOP wherever we can – with a waste hitlist, repairing tools, reclaiming resources, choosing ‘buy-once’, replenishing soil and keeping as much carbon and organics on our property as possible.

Thank you for your kind words…

  • Iso-gardening seemed like a good idea but the ‘beginner’ book we got online was too much information! Pretty relieved to find the Level Zero of growing veg. We are on our way. 👍
