As always, it will be printed on 100% recycled paper and card, with 36 monthly recipe cards on perforated pages, full-colour photographs, seasonal tables, conversion charts, shooting seasons and directory of useful websites.

River Cottage aims through its products and experiences to promote a beneficial impact on our understanding, enjoyment and relationship with real food, and to contribute to the vibrancy of our local food community. It is a 'more than profit' organisation, which means that much of its income is reinvested into developing its ideology and the base of its activities; it holds back from business that conflicts with its ideology and commitment to ethical business practice; and it supports other organisations that share its ideas. River Cottage HQ in Devon organises regular events and courses, designed to promote the River Cottage vision and provide an environment where people can discuss, eat and learn about the very best homegrown, local and seasonal food.

Leaving the unreal world behind
I do love river cottage and the feeling that there is more to life than supermarket shopping. This diary I have purchased as a present for my sister who is having a similar mid life crisis.Having read through it there is a mixture of all the elliments that make river cottage so successful growing your own. finding your own, tending your own, killing your own, cooking your own etc so if I dont get one for Christmas I will be out buying one.

Excellent Diary
I've bought this diary as a Christmas present for a friend. She is very enthusiastic about growing her own fruit and vegetables, and is also a great cook. I'm sure she will find this diary to be extremely helpful,informative and enjoyable.
