Join Morag for a wonderfully informative wander through Stephanie Hafferty’s amazing new edible garden in Wales, featuring permaculture ideas, no-dig garden beds, a food forest, pond, poly-tunnel, and much more.
Stephanie Hafferty is an award-winning writer, author, speaker and educator (and an amazing cook – the lunch she prepared when I visited was incredible!). She’s documented her recipes in her book The Creative Kitchen (https://nodighome.com/my-books-and-writing/the-creative-kitchen/) and describes her gardening approaches in the other book (co-authored), No Dig Home: https://nodighome.com/my-books-and-writing/no-dig-organic-home-and-garden/

Hot enough for celery?
Excited to read her books. Thank you!
Beetroot salad looked yummy. It will be so nice to see you visit Danu’s Irish herb garden. Mrs. Conroy is very original and a heavenly person. Thanks for all your great videos.
Wonder if she has to deal with legumous grasses?
Grazie Morag per questa condivisione, al prossimo video!!!
Lovely! Thank you so much for this wander! Warmly, from the rainiest month in Costa Rica.
I’ve seen a lot of these videos of YouTube recently and that are stiff conversations with clear roots in self promotion for each of themselevs. It’s so refreshing to watch this so natural and interesting conversation the rapport is fantastic the only thing missing was a cuppa tea. Like 2 old friends catching up over vegetables ❤
Thank you Stephanie and Morag for the wander and ideas. Very fortunate to not have to water the grow tunnel. We really don’t know what climate change will bring with mid winter 40 degree temperatures in South america and mid winter 30’s temperatures in Sydney. Making our gardens resilient as Morag shows on her youtube film is so important. Stephanie you have made the very best out of what you could. That clearing did show you how much did actually work! Well done! The food you made from your abundance looked delicious.
Stephanie you are so real…. Thank you for the share…. I am so encouraged
Watching from Western Australia, missing the Welsh weather and the smells of Autumn…. Great content… thank you 🙏
Do they spray the skies in Wales like they do in other parts of the world?
Dirty hands make the table have plenty and have a clean pocket at the end of the day I love everything about this video, a lot to learn from.Good work Stephanie and thank you Morag for linking us to Stephanie.
Great film thank you Morag & Stephanie 💚💚
I love Stephanie’s channel, thank you Morag!😊
Such an amazing woman. Thanks for sharing!

I was fascinated to see the fennel growing between the tomatoes in Stephanie's polytunnel. My research into companion planting says that nothing likes to grow with fennel, and tomatoes in particular. Can Stephanie grow these together because she uses the no dig method? Or have we been misinformed regarding what not to plant near each other. I love fennel and have been quite successful this year in producing enough for our family but running out of places to plant the next seedlings as I plan out where to plant the tomatoes, beans etc for summer. If fennel can grow near tomatoes it would make it so much easier.
