Our raised beds have been having a spectacular year. As climate change begins to bite even more December was unusually wet but also hot. It meant that our tomatoes thrived and the watermelons and rock melons and zucchinis (courgettes) I planted prospered.
I'd never tried growing melons before, but whether it was beginners luck or just good (horse poo) compost they absolutely flourished.
I love growing cherry tomatoes. This year I put in probably 20 or 30 plants and was rewarded with hundreds of the round scarlet vegetables (or are they fruit?). It's a joy to see A&E gorging on them and knowing that they only have to go as far as our garden in order to pick them.
