Talkback: Growing fruit and veg with children

as raspberries. My children and grandchildren loved helping with the fruit and vegetable garden and many are keen gardeners themselves. Great idea Pippa. We have been handing out free broad beans at work. They are fantastic for the kids as they grow so fast by Belgravia Wife
