So this year was our first year growing veg and herbs! I can’t get over how great it is, the herbs are doing so well, I made a herb butter. I have started being able to pick the beetroot and spring onions now, the lettuces and kale have been amazing from day dot!!

I'm excited for you and really must make more of an effort myself. It all looks great.

There's nothing like your own fruit and veg. Well done, they look great

Coooooo... well done. That's fabulous!!!

Congrats and very impressive.

Wow, that's absolutely brilliant, well done!

Can I ask about the kale please? I don't like it myself but my wee rabbit loves it. Is it easy to grow, and did you plant it, say, some one week, some the next? I only have a relatively small garden but it's really sunny, and I'm wondering if I could devote a wee space for his favourite food. I already grow bunny-friendly herbs in pots, which he likes as an occasional thing.

Thank you in advance!

I know nothing about gardening and have absolutely no interest in it. Despite that, this post has brought me so much joy because I can feel how proud you are. Good job OP! It all looks delicious. Well done on your hard work and patience - enjoy it!!

That's very impressive, well done!

@CarrieMoonbeams we bought 10 seedlings for €3 and planted them straight into the beds all together, we just water them and pick off the leaves when needed! To be honest there’s too much, it’s fast growing! 👍

Thanks, that's great, I'll definitely give that a go. 🐇
