I grew up on a farm in the middle of nowhere in Sweden and moved into town as an eager 17 year old to a flat. I moved flats a few times, with a short stint in Stockholm in between, then moved to the UK in 1998. I lived in Birmingham for a little while, then moved to Leicester for work, then moved on to Manchester, then Grimsby, then Sheffield (as I was still working in Manchester and my fella in Grimsby, so we were sharing the drive). We then bought a house in Grimsby and settled there. A few years later I split from him and bought my own house, not too far away (but nothing is too far away in Grimsby) and stayed there for fifteen years. I would've stayed there forever if it had a bigger garden. Nearly two years ago now, my new fella and I bought a house in Barnetby, North Lincolnshire, and we love it here, but I may have an opportunity to buy my mum's farm, so I might go full circle and go back to the farm I grew up on in the middle of nowhere.
Growing veg wise that would give me 70 odd acres to play with but a much shorter growing window.
