I have been doing some calculating. I aim to eat 10 portions of fruit and veg a day (excluding potatoes). One full portion of most things is about 80g, so that's 800g per day or 292kg per year.
My back garden has around 95 square metres of growing space, so I would need to manage more than 3kg per square metre in order to grow all of my fruit and veg! Clearly, that's not going to happen
So, maybe working towards 1kg/square metre would be a good start. I think it will take a while to build up to that, but it would be fun to try.

Formerly self-contained, but expanding my gardening horizons beyond pots!
