Some good advice here - I used to watch my Pop on the allotment as a little kiddy, then help my Nan in the garden planing out, digging up and freezing it. My mum was more the greenhouse lady and loved growing her tomatoes so I have a good pedgree. My daughter will help but needs a special project of her own. I had thought about her own space in the greenhouse and her own raised bed but having a healthy bit of competition from Mum sounds the key, plus picking and cooking it. Fortunately she's not a fussy lass and loves her veg.
What she needs is lots of encouragement from fellow yufffffs.
May start a posting just dedicated to my efforts to encourage her, what do you think? Who knows, a book and a film deal starring Keira Knightley may follow.
