Ever wanted to grow your own vegetables but don’t know where to start? The Pumpkin Plot is here for you. We have a passion for organic home grown fruit and vegetables and want to inspire you to give it a go and create your very own kitchen garden. Whether you have no experience, just can’t face the hard work or can't find the time, The Pumpkin Plot can help you every step of the way - preparing beds, planning crops to grow, sowing, undertaking maintenance or even delivering ready made herb, salad and strawberry pots. All you need to do is decide what to grow and we do all the hard work for you!
Spring is definitely here and now is a great time to get your veg plot growing! Start sowing more tender seeds on a sunny window sill or another protected environment such as a greenhouse or cold frame. Most seeds can now be sown directly outdoors. You might consider investing in some fleece or plastic cloche tunnels to protect young plants.
If you need any help planning what to grow or would like to try some more unusual heritage vegetables, then please get in touch. I can supply seeds alone or help you germinate and grow the vegetables. Don't be tempted to get too far ahead as April can still spring some nasty weather surprises but begin to sow under protection where you can.
And don't forget - if you would like a present with a difference, why not give a Pumpkin Plot gift basket. Baskets start from £6 and can be tailored to any budget and contain seeds of your choice (veg, herbs and flowers). And we're not just about vegetables - if you like the look of the willow tunnel, then give us a call! These primary children are enjoying the Spring sunshine running through the latest addition to their playground. In a few weeks time, the tunnel will be covered in new leaves and rustling in the breeze.
If it all sounds a little daunting, why not get The Pumpkin Plot to assist? Just give us a call today and we can help you plan your fruit and veg growing for this year.
