All looking fabulous mouse2! And dipole nifty ideas, Thankyou

Quite how you found time to keep four full plots is beyond me.
The under-gardner and I only manage because a third of our space is soft fruit which requires less time than most crops.
Good luck with the downsizing.

One advantge is that you might find you have more room in your freezer going forward !

As we get older and gardening becomes more difficult the time will come when we will need to reduce the workload and, inevitably, downsize. I would focus on the crops of fruit and veg we enjoy the most and which produce the largest yield in the space available; a good example being anything which grows vertically such as runner and French beans. I am always impressed with the yield from potatoes grown in large pots. But fortunately, for now, we can still bend down to the soil.
