For more than 50 years, growing food has been part of everyday life at Earthkeepers.

Our gardens are designed around the principle of a twelve-month harvest, providing seasonal vegetables, fruit, berries, herbs and spices throughout the year.

Over the decades, we have learnt to work with nature rather than against it — using companion planting, intercropping, natural pest management and thoughtful seasonal growing to create productive and resilient gardens.

Here we share some of the practical knowledge and lessons we have gathered along the way.
