You seem very well organised there Emma! It's lovely to follow their progress.......right up to going on your dinner plate!

I think there is a lot of satisfaction gained from growing your own produce....you know exactly what's in them (no chemicals) and so fresh

I have been growing veg now for about 6 years and you are very right Mags that it is so nice as they are so fresh no chemicals. I have never had a problem with growing the veg as they always seem to do well (sometimes a little too well), I think the only problem I have ever had (apart from caterpillars which I always leave!! lol) is blight on some tomatoes.

Yes I thought it would be good fun to see how some of these plants and seeds grow

I have grown more herbs this year which I find quite interesting.

In the coldframe I have also planted 4 of Donna's sunflower seeds she very kindly let me have
