With so much talk about impending world food shortages, now is a good time to start growing your own. Most people only think about growing vegetables however there are lots of fruit which can be grown at home or on allotments, especially with the ever increasing dwarf varieties available, many of which can be grown in containers. What better than a home grown peach, warm juicy & straight from the tree.
