Linda and Keith Foster

Coalville, Leicestershire

We moved to our new home in 2024. My partner had successfully tried no dig at his previous home and my son at his allotment - the decision to use it at our new home was an easy one!

The garden hadn’t been touched for years and was full of twitch and mares tail.We put in a greenhouse, a cold frame and 3 small no dig beds using the cardboard and compost method.

We built 3 pallet compost bins. We’ve also put in a no dig herb garden and flower beds.  

The garden transformation in such a short time is really quite amazing.

Our vegetable success was fantastic for the first year. We’re looking forward to using our own compost in 2025!
