Please help. DH has decided that when he remodels the garden I can have a small patch of the garden to grow veggies.

It's no more than 2 metere sq (if that) so i want ideas for easy to grow stuff that doesnt take up much room. It's well drained and gets a good mix of sun and shade!

Already has an apple tree in it and the compost bin is there so lots of good compost!

Would like to try strawberries, but I know these can be done just as well in a pot. So what else.

Thanks!

Think about what you use and also what you would like to use but is too expensive and then go from there!

Peas if you can grow them up a fence or something, lovely fresh and kids can pick them and eat them from the plant, lettuce/sallad stuff the same.Do some strawberries in pots to save space.Potatos are good and easy, tomatoes (or do them in grow bags)
