With no hope of an allotment plot, discovering the Secret Greenhouse began my journey to grow my own veg in London Town.
3 raised beds, some tyres, plastic containers, a (secret) greenhouse and a shed, with the freedom to make what we want from this opportunity.

Found through the Land Share website, this community spot presented itself as a great chance for me and my girlfriend Sally to have a go at growing our own veg.

This blog will follow me, a gardening novice, through the seasons and beyond!

Growing things & green things


Peas are taking shape



 and apples have started too




Hops are going ok, I assume!

Sunshine, it works!


During our spell of great weather ('Summer') the peas, broad beans, potatoes and salad leaves all seriously lapped it up and grew loads!


Finally, lots of green across the plot!
