Also intend to eat more of what I grow instead of letting it go to waste.
This means more successional sowing - small batches more often.
To grow less small tomatoes and no big ones that take too long to ripen.
To try outdoor cucumbers as the indoor ones weren't very productive this year.
To grow more edible, ornamental plants - flowers with uses.
To empty the far pond and turn it into a fruit and veg bed.
Continue pulling up montbretia, vinca and grass and reducing areas that need mowing.

There'll be more. Big Grin
To clear the ground beyond the fence to create more veg growing space.
To create mini-raised beds, dotted around the garden, using the wormery tiers that grew courgettes this year and slices of blue water butt. Hoping that these will be enough to stop the dogs from charging through them. Will use these for root crops and, maybe, wigwam structures for beans.
Still clearing the end of the garden!
Reduced the tomato plants I grew to one GH and that was enough.
Grew different types of Cucumber in the other GH to decide which suited me better - didn't grow any outdoors.
Emptied the pond and grew lots of courgettes in open bottomed pots. Will do the same next year (probably).
Still pulling up the invasive plants and reducing the grass,
Didn't do the "mini-beds" as I had enough to cope with behind the fence. 

Still more space to clear for next year and I want to get some bean frames in place earlier in the year, ready.

Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without.
