Think you don't have enough room to green up your act? My Tiny Garden Farm is bursting with innovative ideas and savvy solutions to help you transform any small space into a slice of the good life. With forest plots, urban orchards and amazing allotments, we've unearthed over 25 exciting spaces.

You'll pick up all the best tips and tricks as each gardener shares their small-scale expertise, from super seed swaps to mastering seasonal gluts. Plus, practical projects including building a plant ladder, constructing a hedge fence and improving your chicken coop will help you make the most of every inch.
