Ba Humbug!
What a farce, pity they didn't get some veg growers to do the prog.
the team are not veg growers as could be seen by their advice and how
they were doing things.
As for the "New" garden, I wish I could throw money at a site as they
have done,
How much better to show how to do the different jobs without spending
a fortune, £200 for a raised bed, and they have 4.
Why not show how you can dig out the path around the bed to use the
top soil to make the raised bed, keep the beds no more than 5ft wide
so you can work them without having to walk on the bed,
I'm sure that others here could go on adding to the faults

More Humbugs!
I would love to know exactly how much money, time, manpower etc was
spent to get the garden from the quagmire it was at the beginning of
Feb to the lovely workable, weed-free soil they had at the end of
March. All those diggers etc and now look at it!
Toby suggested that our Councils might provide "free" compost. Just
try asking my council about that! They charge "the earth!!!"
How much did they spend on the building work?
Those growbags planted with lettuce seed were done in a ridiculous
place. Try moving a ready planted growbag off a paved area without
disturbing it!
The shed looks dreadful, the "sofa" area is a stupid idea.
I've learned nothing yet!
