My first post on the forum although I've been a member for a couple of years.
I have my own vegetable patch at the end of our garden which is 50% raised beds and 50% beds. I also have 2 greenhouses which are currently full to bursting with mainly veg seedlings/young plants but there also some flowers (got to keep the bees and friendly bugs happy
) just waiting for the warmer weather so they can go into their final growing positions. I also run the gardening club at our local primary school and have a pretty decent selection of raised beds, tubs and planters to fill there and there is also a polytunnel which, as with my own greenhouses, is full to the gunnels with a variety of vegetable and flower seedlings/young plants.
Once the warmer weather finally puts in an appearance, I'm going to be extremely busy planting out both at home and with the kids
.I've only been growing for about 4-5years but have a pretty good idea what will and won't do around these parts but there is still an awful lot to learn (got to keep a step ahead of the pupils
). I'm not a teacher, BTW, but just a parent volunteer who happens to love getting her hands dirty and takes a real joy in putting homegrown produce on the table.
Cheers
