Hallo to you all

[York lady]

Hi my name is Rose but my user name is york lady.
I have just retired ,love my small garden and now it's time for veg.
I have put my name down for a half allotment ,but think I might be too old by the time I get one.
I have had a word with my husband and I am going with all your help?make a raised bed on my patio,and then use everything else around other areas of my small garden,containers,etc.
My dad used to grow all our veg and feed half of the street as well,so I have his green fingers I hope.
Will need lots of advise ,but really looking to getting everything ready for next year.
We're do I post for advise about my raised bed on top of my patio??
Looking to reading all the posts and answers from you all.
Please be patient with me .
Rose

Hi and welcome!

I haven't got any raised beds myself but lots of people on here use them productively so you'll get plenty of advice. Do post pictures as things develop!
