        Thanks for the welcome. So far I have planted in containers Lettuce, Kale, spinach, potatoes, carrots and several herbs, we have started a compost heap which we have made with pallets, we will also make a raised bed as soon as we can, but we Don't have much room so fingers crossed for a allotment

          Sometimes, its worth visiting the allotments at the weekend and having a chat with whoever is there, see if they know of anything coming vacant. If you don't ask.....

            Hello SF and welcome to the Vine.

            Like you I have a very iddy biddy garden and have to continually think 'outside' the box to find room for anything.

            This site is brilliant for all kinds of advice and it is more than happy to let you share your knowledge to enhance us all.

            Oh and VC is so nosy she will be asking for photo's soon!

                              Hi Sue and welcome, it's amazing what you can grow in containers and hanging baskets are great for tomatoes.

                              I waited 3+ years for an allotment, and hadn't got a clue, learnt it as I went along. But do keep on nagging your council or whoever about getting an allotment, there are always neglected ones, so if you spot one, it's definitely worth bringing it to their attention!
