We are looking for both experienced gardeners as well as amateurs who are wishing to broaden their experiences.
The programme is offering eight pairs the chance to create and manage a magnificent allotment over the course of six months, located on the same patch of earth.
The programme will be an exciting and stimulating series which will reveal all the wonderful possibilities that can be unlocked from one patch of earth. From vegetables to fruits and flowers, this programme will illustrate that gardens aren’t just for sitting in!
We are looking for pairs of contestants who have the skills and the dedication to compete to be the nation’s best kitchen gardener. Someone who can cultivate the perfect carrot, make their green tomatoes into award winning chutney and turn their dahlias and sweet peas into floral arrangements fit for a Queen.
The deadline for applications is 9am on the 8th of March 2013.
