My dad is a keen gardener. I grew up with the idea that fresh veg comes from the garden and it always tasted better than the supermarket stuff.

I like the variety of veg & fruit that can be grown outdoors (since I've moved 400 miles south from the family home - still can't believe I've got peppers growing happily) and I like planning what I'll be harvesting each month. However, I'm new to "allotmenteering" as the OH calls it so I'm sure my plans will alter regularly! I'd like to be self-sufficient (for veg anyway!) most of the year.
