I love growing things. A quarter of my garden has been turned into a vegetable patch. We grow lots of different vegetables and some fruits.

Sweetcorn growing in the veg patch!
We grow things like figs, parsley, rosemary, raspberries,  strawberries, sweet corn, thyme, tomatoes and also carrots. We have a greenhouse with things like lettuce, parsley and chives. We have a fruit tree which grows cherries. We have a raspberry bush next to it. We painted a little wooden container and put some bottles which had the top cut off of them and holes in the sides. So you can fill them with water and they water the plants for you because the water leaks out of the sides of the bottles.

One of our first raspberries!
I love the taste of fruits, especially home grown strawberries dipped in melted chocolate ,yum!
Sweetcorn is always the best barbecued it has a lovely smokey taste. I use the herbs in my cooking, like thyme, rosemary, parsley and chives.

Parsley - great for burgers!



Mum's Fig Tree




Strawberry Planter - we had loads this year!


Runner Beans - Not sure these are doing very well :(

What my family and I grow in the garden
