Preserving Swiss Chard - Reduce Waste with these 2 Methods 

I've had chard growing all over winter and it's taken over the raised bed but it's time to clear and get the bed ready for planting spring beans - here's how I saved all the best bits and now have a nice stock of swiss chard greens in the freezer, and some super green powder in the pantry too. I hope it helps you when you've got a greens glut - whether from the garden or by picking up some bargains at the shops!
