But where to start if you've never gardened before, if you've got a tiny section or if you're too busy to water and weed? ​Vegepod delivers the size and productivity of a raised garden bed with all the benefits of container gardening. The innovative design captures and recycles rainwater so it uses 80 per cent less water than a normal vegetable garden – ideal for anyone on tank water supply or living in a drought-prone area. Because the nutrients aren't just being washed straight out of the soil, it requires less fertiliser than a normal garden, and because the hood keeps the bugs out you won't need sprays or slug baits. "This may be at home, or in their workplace, retirement village, community garden or school," she says.
