Hi All,
I am Dave. Live in Bishops Waltham. Have Lauren, 2 and Alec 8/12. We have started growing our own fruit and veg in the last year, partly cos you cant get out with nippers otherwise and mainly to let the kids see where chips come from!
I am blessed with about 1/3 acre garden. Its wedge shaped and I have put in a big shed and greenhouse in the last year. Just finished landscaping the beds today!
Its my 2nd year with a fruit cage this season, so waiting for a good crop of raspberries.

As newbie, mainly looking for advice and idea snaffling. I will post some snaps when I get chance.

Welcome Dave, you'll find lots of answers from these folks but remember a good question is as useful as a good answer.

Hello Dave - 1/3rd of an acre is a fair old plot to play with! Think you need to teach the kids how to dig
