These web pages were
inspired by John Sibley's course 'Gardening for Beginners' offered in
the autumn of 2008 for our small community in Dentdale. John, himself an
enthusiastic beginner, hoped to encourage others toward equal enthusiasm
for growing vegetables. This site is intended primarily for the
20+ people who followed the course and are developing their own
vegetable plots in the sometimes less than ideal growing conditions of
Dentdale. (We had 86 inches of rain in 2008). These initial pages are
based on and complement some of John's course content and he has agreed
to produce a weekly diary of vegetable gardening activity as a prompt
for those starting their vegetable plots this year. The hope is that
other Dentdale gardeners will contribute ideas and experiences by
sending text and pictures to Neville Allen, our webmaster. As for
the 'Health Warning', it is simply to remember that we are all
beginners!
