If we had a shed that we could shelter in, the decision of when to visit the vegetable plot might be easier. As it is when a bright dry day on the allotment, turns into a day when the sky becomes grey and the rain falls like there was no tomorrow, we are left walking home bedraggled and wet. This leads to decision making over when to go there to get the odd jobs done. In decision making, I mean discussions about the weather that day instead if just grabbing the necessary gardening tools and heading up the road to the plot. As it is we have hit a patch of win some lose some days, when the not too good weather suddenly improves and the bright and dry day turns out to be a very wet afternoon.
I suppose without the English weather we would not have such a green countryside landscape, so with that looking on the bright side I will find another task to do. Sorting out the box where I store the seeds seems like an indoor dry option choice.

Growing Your Own Fruit and Vegetables
We grow our own fruit and vegetables for our meals for as much of the year as we can. Without a greenhouse we have to buy shop food in the winter months but in the spring, summer and autumn we often have enough to share with family and friends.
