VEGETABLE GARDEN: Think before you dig!

Vegetable and herb gardens need around 6 hours
of sunlight a day! The more the better.

So for the first couple of weeks in the new house I have been eyeing out all the spots that could possibly work for a veggie patch or a portagerMy idea is to combine the two.

It can not be close to the Kitchen, as the kitchen is on the South side of the house. I also do not want to "break" the large lush larn we inherited. Our property has a mini-forest on the one side -
no sunshine there, well not nearly enough for a veg garden. There is a + - 2 m strip of
garden on the other side of the driveway which I thought would be perfect and then I realised
the neighbours on that side also had a urban forest going with large, large, large trees - the results, too much shade there too.

So after much discussion and ummming and aahhhing we have finally earmarked a spot!!!!
Details will follow.
