  • Making the most of my small Garden

    Hi All,

    This year I have been growing veg in containers and a very small plot. Now want to expand as we (3 boys and hubby) had so much fun planting and eating the few veg we managed to grow.
    Look forward to finding out lots of good ideas

                      You are very lucky having all that man-power to help you.
                      Their are many ladies who have to struggle with their plots alone.
                      Be sure to make full use of them.

                        Hi there Sarajane
                        I am in much the same boat as you, and as you may notice in the same place

                        Good luck and I am sure you'll love it here!

                          Hi & welcome SaraJane!

                          I have also been growing fruit & veg in my small garden for myself, hubby & 3 boys for the last several years (well, not the 3rd boy, he's only a year!) We finally got an allotment last week after a 2.5 year wait! It will be nice to grow less in the garden and let the boys have some space back for playing but still have plenty to eat!

                          Good luck to you & yours!
