‘Having mentioned that 2012 is the year of ‘DIY’ in our house, my brother – who has his own landscape gardening business in Bristol – has kindly offered to come down in March and build us a new fence and gate in our garden!

I can’t wait to get out and clear all the winter leaves from the garden and get our little veg patch ready for this year’s crops!

Last year we grew carrots, shallots, peas, lettuce, garlic and strawberries and potatoes. The runner beans were a failure!

I think we will do something similar this year and grow tomatoes as well to make into chutney in a few months’ time.

There is definitely something satisfying about seeing your veg patch out of your kitchen window and picking and eating your own produce.’
