Other plot holders will offer you surplus stuff and there's a centrally placed table to leave stuff that you don't need, others can help themselves. We all have our own composters (or some choose not to) and a few times a year the council will drop off a load of leaf mulch or bark chipping for everyone to use.
I only grow what we like, and this year is really to find out what grows well and what doesn't, how much space I have and if i can use it better next year.
For instance, for only 2 of us, 1 courgette plant is enough, as I'm already seeing that I'll have far too many with 2 plants.
I started pretty much everything from seeds/bulbs, starting last November for Sweet Peas, but am looking at the layout of the beds and ways to make it work better. So, I'll be planting a couple of rose bushes and dedicating 1 bed to spring bulbs, which I can then use for annuals when they finish in early summer.
I like planning, so that's part of the fun, as well as seeing all the flowers blooming!🌻🌼🌷🌹🌺
