Yea Sorry about that, I should have introduced myself earlyer, but been rather bizzy and my computer kept braking down.

I am a 55yr old gardener, who grows for our local community, involved with a new allotment and land share project in Carmarthenshire.

I am very interested in growing the more unusual verieties of veg, herloom etc.

I collect a lot of my own seeds, and share them with others in our community.

Trying to incurage the younger generation to get the bug of growing your own.

regards

Having the right timeing and weather to get into the allotment has been bad for me this last month.

i also do voluntery work and every time it has been sunny, wishing I could spend time gardening, I had been booked to do my volunteering work.

Hope I can get stuck in now, a bit later that I wished.

Do you want to be added to the bottom of the list? Then when you've been through them you can send them back to me?
