Top tips………….

If space is limited, choose crops which you like to eat. 

Avoid growing crops that take up a large amount of space or take a long time to grow. 

Choose leafy vegetables that you can harvest a few leaves off and they will keep growing (known as cut and come again veg) For example; celery, spring onion, rocket, coriander, chard and parsley.
