Hiya! We live in Western Scotland (Vale of Leven) and have just started vegetable gardening. Well, we started late last summer, digging and building our beds. We love it!
DH enjoys the work, especially. The funny thing is that neither of us have any real interest in non-food gardening. We mow the front lawn and trim the hedge when it looks bad, but the back garden is all being turned into beds. (With a few daffodils and roses at the back fence.) I love watching the plants grow, but they're really only interesting to me if you can eat them.
We've got eight raised beds. Two of them are 1x3 meters and the rest are somewhat smaller. (Probably .8 x 2.5 meters or so.) The back of our garden goes up a steep slope, but that's the best bit of sun, so DH is terracing it so we can have four more beds next year.
We're growing all the usual stuff. Most things are doing very well so far.
Nice to meet you!
