Sow & Grow is designed for anyone interested in doing table-top gardening activities as part of a group or individually and is aimed at a wide range of interests, ages and abilities.

It includes nearly 80 activities with varying degrees of difficulty and features step-by-step instructions with photographs and explanatory graphics.

There’s a guide to how long each activity should take and details of basic equipment that’ll be needed, plus a helpful section of hints and tips.

The Sow & Grow resource book was produced as part of a two-year Thrive STH programme that involved more than 300 people in Berkshire, Hampshire and south Oxfordshire.

Analysis of the programme showed that 80 per cent of those who took part reported improved mental health and 65 per cent noted improvements to physical health.
