    Hello to everyone, I'm Dean, 19 and from South Wales. I'm very enthusiastic about growing my own foods and hope to live self sufficiently when I'm older.

    Last year I eased myself into gardening by planting some spinach plants! It was successful, in fact I had too much!

    This year I want to:

    Plant a fig tree (from Grandfather - he's Italian so he has many fig trees LOL)
    Plant tomatoes
    Plant carrots
    Plant potatoes

    My parents gave my the strip of land in my garden and I can do whatever I want with it. Here are some pictures of the land.

    These are the before pics

    Victory!

    Well that's it.

    I look forward to learning more info and whatnot.

    Peace!
