The Little Veggie Patch Co’s Guide to Backyard Farming
ISBN: 9781742611587
Authors: Fabian?Capomolla & Mat?Pember
Publisher: Pan Macmillan Australia, September?2012

This engaging paperback runs to 256 pages, stands roughly 24?cm high by 21?cm wide, and weighs about 1.03?kg—perfectly sized for everyday use in the garden shed or kitchen. Written specifically for Australian and New Zealand conditions, it encourages readers to spend a full year with The Little Veggie Patch Co, growing fruit, vegetables and herbs in pots, window boxes, raised beds or even vertical gardens.

Each chapter corresponds to a month of the year and explains what’s happening in the garden alongside what to plant or harvest. The guide is packed with hands-on activities for all ages, including tips on keeping chickens, starting a backyard beehive, propagating cuttings, making cider and tomato sugo, and creating garden-inspired gifts. Seasonal recipes—like haloumi, asparagus and roasted tomato salad or beetroot and chocolate cake—help you turn homegrown produce into delicious meals.

Fabian and Mat strike a friendly, conversational tone backed by clear diagrams, lively photographs and helpful planting calendars. Whether you’re working with a courtyard, balcony, nature strip or suburban backyard, this book offers practical projects, sustainable guidance and year-round inspiration – all penned by the passionate duo behind Melbourne’s Little Veggie Patch Co.

Now out of print, this title remains well regarded, earning positive reviews and appearing regularly in secondhand book collections. It’s a vibrant, locally relevant guide for anyone wanting to grow their own food with flair and confidence.
