New to HuwsNursery? 🙂
My name is Huw Richards, I live in Wales, UK and I am a teenager who loves vegetable gardening. Unusual right? I love to teach people around the world about growing their own food organically and my end goal is to get as many children as possible to have the experience of growing food which I believe is one of the most important things a child could learn.

  1. Hi, is it ok to grow tomatoes in the same place year after year. I mean we could change the beds outdoors but sure can’t move the greenhouse around! So how can we grow tomatoes in the same greenhouse, same bed year after year? Cheers Vinny

  2. a suggestion. you have areas of grass that you mow. turn said areas into a field of green manures. it'll still look nice when mown, I like mine.
    I have hundreds of species of plants in the green areas that I mow. all the clippings go in the compost bin.

  3. Hi excellent video . the idea of an enclosed system is what i am aiming for. I think it will have to include a lot of green manure and comfrey grown for compost. This is going to reduce the cropping area may be by as much as 50 percent..any ideas sbout getting the most biomass from lawns hedges and odd corners of the garden would be welcome.

  4. Well I just read a article on BBC News about you. Hope your dream of a gardening programme on the TV work out as you are a real gardener giving down to earth advice and great tips Keep it going. I have grow since I was 11 that's 63 years and I too have learned at lot from your videos

  5. Hi Huw, I saw a piece about you on BBC's teletext service – an supposedly obsolete non internet based news service, so you are certainly getting your message out! Any plans to get the BBC Wales cameras to you? Hope you reach 100k subscribers soon.

  6. We're a vegan household and so we never lack for compost! When our horses lived here we used to give away the manure because ee just didn't need it at all.

  7. Hi new to the allotment life. Once I've put manure over the soil, do I need to keep digging it over and raking it in the following days/weeks so that the soil is fine?

  8. Hi Huw, great video, excited for what this season will bring. I'm curious as to why you speak of working towards a closed holistic system but never explicitly mention permaculture?
