Flat owners urged to grow veg
Updated on 10 July 2009
People living in the UK's five million flats are being urged to get gardening and grow their own veg - on their windowsills.
According to the National Trust, there are some 600 acres of space for window boxes across the country, making it possible for householders with no garden or allotment to join the current trend for "growing your own".
The available windowsill space - equivalent to 344 football pitches - could be used for vegetables and herbs including tomatoes, lettuce, beetroot, chard and rosemary.
