Veggie Garden…

We have made some changes to the planting in the veggie garden by reducing some of the beds (moving the raspberries to a larger plot), improving the composting area, and limiting what we grow. This is because we end up doing more other outdoors activities during summer (holidays and generally out and about) and so cannot devote time to maintaining the crops. A whole bed is given over to potatoes and another to courgettes/pumpkins/squash and cucumbers and the remaining one to onions, beans and various leafy crops. We have a few pots but we won’t plant these until later on in the year when we can manage them better. Hopefully it will be a more successful strategy.
