What a neat garden you have ...... definately no chickens in yours  :lol:
Your veg looks yummy well done. Hope mine looks as good as yours.

Why don't you put this in the diary section and add to it every week or so. I would love to see how things get on in your garden.

That really is amazing progress. You should be very proud of what you've achieved. I only hope that I can have comparable results within a couple of years. It all comes down to the effort you put in doesn't it. You have clearly been working very hard for the last 6 months.

That's amazing progress.  Looks far better than my offerings  :D
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

Well done you! I wish my garden was as tidy and productive as yours. Unfortunately it is tiny and I try to cram too much in, so it's very difficult to weed.....
