The Alternative Kitchen Garden podcast, produced and presented by Emma Cooper, is all about growing edible and useful plants in an environmentally-friendly way. It is completely free to download and listen to.
Episode 42 is all about chickpeas (garbanzo beans) and my attempts to grow them this summer. See more photos of my chickpeas growing.
Patrick, from Bifurcated Carrots sent in this link to garbanzo bean rhizobia bacteria, which might give your crops a boost.
