I'm considering making the leap in to doing this as soon as job and would love to hear about anyone's experience 🌽🥦🥔🥕💚

Not as a job, but I've recently joined a community farm. Might be some overlap.

What part of the country are you in? I'm quite northerly, which limits crop choice.

I'm in the south east

Very different climate, then. I moved from there to north west and it took quite some time to adjust to keeping things warm and dry rather than cool and watered. You'll have lots of possibilities for things like the larger squashes that I just can't get to ripen here.

Have you tried tomatillos and physalis? They are very little work once you've got them going, keep well once picked, and the former in particular are hard to find in shops.

I'm currently setting up a market garden following some training and intensive research! Happy to exchange notes if you want to PM me Smile
