Hi from rainy Derbyshire!!

Post: # 223413Post Meg_T »

Hi there,

I looked at this forum a while ago, and have now finally joined it!! I am 22, and live in north Derbyshire. I used to have an allotment with my dad when I was younger, and have now decided to have a go at growing my ow fruit/veg/herbs in my mum's garden.

I have taken my first steps today and bought some starter pots:
Cherrybelle Radishes
Lettuce
Cayenne Pepper
Chives
White Lisbon Spring Onions

I just wanted to say hello - and I realy look forward to joining this community and starting my journey to (partial)self sufficiency!

Hi there and welcome :wave:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
