My VERY Rough Plan

I couldn't sleep lastnight so grabbed my notebook and roughly drew out a plan for our plot. It's very rough and very basic but it gets the idea across.

Only a small bit there requires us digging up some grass as we want to join the two veg patches to make one long patch. Please ignore the fact the sizes are all wrong, I know that but again it was dark and fairly late and I didn't exactly have a ruler on hand (nor a pencil which is why I used a pen).

You can see some blank areas. Well one of the patches is blank as not exactly sure what we will do with it yet, the top area has stuff growing there already but need to figure out what is what and if any of it is still alive. We will also get a bin to collect any rainfall by the compost area until we are given our new shed and then we'll probably move it to the side of the shed.

The patch that says "Alex's Area" is a place for our son to play on our plot. I'm not totally sure what we will do there as of yet but perhaps we can build a small sand pit, we shall see what we are allowed to do first as I have several ideas but rather not put them into place without knowing if any of them are okay to do or not.

You will also see two small lists. This was just me trying to think of produce we want to grow. I actually cannot eat sweetcorn as it makes me sick but I am happy to grow it for my partner to enjoy eating. We also love to make home-made chips so potatoes are certainly a must-have in our household and will probably be in our veg patch as often as possible. About the only fruit on that list which isn't on the plot already is strawberries. Again a must-have for our family as our growing boy just loves these, he can eat a packet of strawberries from the supermarket in one day and this is a bit too expensive for us to keep up, I mean it's great he loves fruit but it's not cheap!

I've not got any ideas for flowers yet, I'm fan of Spring flowers but now it's almost Summer time and ask me what flowers are in bloom in Summer I'd have a blank look on my face as I reply with "errrr..." so I need to do a bit of research in the flower department of gardening. I can tell you what my favourite flowers look like but that's about it. I'm sure I'll learn soon enough!
