1. Most of the veg will be grown in 30ltr pots in GHs 1 & 2. They're protected from the weather, close to the house so I have no excuse for not popping in frequently, water butts alongside so easy to water. The pots will give greater depth of soil for roots, like carrots, which I find impossible to grow in the ground here - too many tree roots and stones! I'm hoping that the pots will be less troubled by ants and other pests. Also, being raised, it will be easier to weed and spot any problems.  If a plant doesn't need to be in the GH, it can be moved outside onto the patio - I'm thinking of potatoes, for example.
2. The middle of the garden is mostly fruit trees and bushes so I'm going to grow more flowers and herbs there to encourage the bees to visit and pollinate the fruit. It will also be a treat to walk through (and nibble on) on the way to>>>
3. The far end of the garden, which I call the veg end - is where I'll grow bigger, longer standing veg, (but only those I enjoy eating) - like courgettes & squash, beans & peas. No root crops or salad leaves as they'll be close to the house in the GH for frequent picking.

Scattered around the garden, will be perennial kales, rhubarb, elephant garlic and leeks.

For once one of your plans finally make sense.  Tongue I think it's a wonderful,  practical plan. You'll never live it down Veggie.
Gardening is an excuse not to do housework
