Tim Deane's Nature Notes is a collection of articles that appeared in The Organic Grower magazine between 2009 and 2021. The notes are reflections of a life on the land, that of an organic vegetable grower and farmer intimately connected to the soil and working with the living ecological systems and cycles that sustain its productivity. They are both light-hearted and informative and although Tim makes no claims to being a 'proper naturalist', these notes provide a unique window into the nature of a small Devon farm on the fringes of Dartmoor, its fellow inhabitants and passing visitors. It is that empathy, observation, and attention to detail which made Tim such an accomplished grower; a true pioneer of the organic growing movement. Whether you have a garden or farm, or simply care about the environment in which we live, this book will provide a new perspective on the natural world around us.

Tim Deane was born in Devon. He left and returned to the county several times during boyhood and as a young man. Following university and an undistinguished degree in archaeology and history he fell happily into casual work on a farm. This provided just enough experience to secure a permanent job on a mixed farm - beef, sheep and arable - in the Scottish Highlands. After two years he returned to Devon and spent a year at agricultural college, leading to a post as stockman/tractor driver on another mixed farm in Cornwall, where he spent six years.In 1984 Tim, wife Jan, and their two young children took on a small, abandoned farm in Devon. With no electricity or running water and a tumbled down farmhouse, they were homesteading while learning the business of organic vegetable growing. Somehow they stayed solvent selling their produce on the wholesale market but greater security came with the establishment of a vegetable box scheme in 1991. The first such scheme to market the entire output of an organic vegetable holding directly to individual households in this way, this was the immediate model for the subsequent expansion of direct marketing with the relative financial security that it provided.
