Hi all,
I've always wanted to grow my own veg and started young, as most of us did, with tomatoes in my parents back garden.
However, faced with passing this on to my children I find myself with a garden that is not ideal for veg growing at all. Past the top 2" is sand and hardcore. With two dogs who have previously used the garden happily, and with alot of it turning to out of control lawn we are looking at a revamp. This does not include having a lawn.
I want to look at container growing, a small greenhouse and shed. I know nothing of composting other than its portrayed to be either extremely easy or extremely difficult.
I'm hoping to find what I need on this forum and share the same joy I had as a child, with the next generation.

. My favourite mantra goes something like this - If you haven't got a plot, you can grow it in a pot. If your ground is really bad, container growing may be best for you and we certainly have a wealth of experienced container growers here who will be able to give you advice
