There is a certain amount of love that goes into growing vegetables, and that love can then be shared with friends and family, who will love you in return!

If you have never gardened before, a Veggie Patch is an easy way to start as you are able to reap what you sow relatively soon after planting. All our fruits and vegetables come with detailed, easy to follow instructions that will have you gardening like a pro in no time!

Strawberries

The taste of home grown strawberries is so much sweeter than the ones from the supermarket, there really is no comparison. The taste straight from the bush is absolutely mouth watering.

Strawberries are a great crop to grow with kids as they can watch them grow before their eyes and enjoy the spoils in no time! They like a sunny spot in humus rich soil. It is a good idea to add some compost or well rotted manure to the poor soils to give your strawberries a little extra get up and go.

Potatoes

Potatoes are hard not to love! They can be cooked in so many different ways, mashed, fried, roasted, baked, used in soups etc. etc. We have chosen strong varieties that will produce heavy yields with ease.

There are lots of ways to grow Potatoes. They are so easy, they will succeed in the ground, in pots or even grown in sacks! From planting you only have to wait 15-20 weeks to harvest your delicious crop.
