		<title>Okavango Delta</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Earlier this year I received an invitation to Francistown, Botswana, to give a talk to their Garden Club. The Okavango Delta has been on our list of places to visit for many years and we thought it would be a good idea to combine the two. We had been keeping August free for a trip [...]]]></description>

		<title>Next book taking shape</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have just completed the manuscript for the next book &#8211; &#8220;Jane&#8217;s Delicious Herbs. Healing plants for home, health and happiness.&#8221; And now the photography starts. I have gone through my bottle collection and fished out every interesting one I have ever tucked away.

		<title>Chicken Tractor</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I first heard about a chicken tractor from one of my American magazines about ten years ago. It was a review of a book a homesteader had written about using chickens to till and fertilise the land. I wanted one. And now (finally!!) I have a chicken tractor with four happy hens installed in my [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;I am the special ingredient!&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;I am the special ingredient!&#8221; is the quote on the back of the chef&#8217;s T shirt in the open plan kitchen at Xudum camp in the Okavango Delta. And does he live up to it. I have just arrived back from six days in the Delta &#8211; travelling via bumpy little planes, even bumpier landies, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Water wising up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Not that long ago, people who grew their own vegetables or used grey water for irrigation were considered fringe tree huggers. Just four years ago I only had one friend that I knew of who grew her own vegetables. And look at us now. These days I get stopped in the queue at supermarkets by [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Cat Who Ate Everything</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Cat Who Ate Everything The knee high wave swirled around me, tugging at my calves. I could feel the sand disintegrating under my feet and I wriggled my toes deeper. Southbroom. Summer. Holidays. I looked down into the clear sea and there was a black and white cat swimming under water. &#8220;That’s not right,” [...]]]></description>

		<title>Leaves glorious leaves</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Leaf mould is another way of enriching our soils. Leaf mould is just what it sounds like – fully decomposed leaves. Often we have more leaves than we can use in our compost, particularly in autumn. Dry leaves can take a lot longer to decompose than other compost ingredients. It is better to compost them [...]]]></description>

		<title>The magic of compost!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You will know you are becoming hooked on gardening when you find compost a fascinating subject! I am a compost addict. I love the smell of compost. I love the feel of compost.

		<title>Growing green fingers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In a natural environment, a carrot would grow, become fat, then die and rot back into the soil, giving the nutrients it had absorbed back to the soil. However, we come along and pull it out. To maintain fertile, healthy soil we need to continually replace the nutrients we remove when we harvest our vegetables [...]]]></description>
