How to Sow Your Seeds
Begin your heirloom vegetables outdoors by sowing seeds directly into well-drained soil in containers or garden beds, ideally in a sunny spot such as balconies or terraces. These annuals need some love with consistent moisture to establish strong growth.
Sowing
Sow seeds on firm, damp soil and lightly pat down to ensure good soil contact. Keep the soil well hydrated and place the containers or beds in full sun to encourage reliable germination.
Growing
As seedlings emerge, thin out crowded plants to give each enough space, especially when grown in 40 cm pots or garden beds. Providing ample light and room supports healthy development of these heirloom varieties.
Plant care
Water regularly, particularly during warm weather, to maintain consistent moisture levels. Feed with an organic fertiliser to promote vigorous growth, and harvest produce when mature to enjoy the rich flavour characteristic of these timeless vegetables.
Seeds for a Heirloom Garden

The Heirloom Story
During WW1, many London parks were converted into allotments to help ease food shortages. Growing heirloom vegetables connects you to this rich history and the joy of self-sufficiency.
