Today I was mostly giving my Veggy plot a well deserved makeover by upgrading the visual and practical parts of my 2 raised beds. As the start of the sowing season is upon us, I wanted to make my raised beds a little more appealing on the eye by removing the rocks holding down the side of the netting over the beds and not spending alot of money doing it.

I have decided to publish the costs of my Master Vegetable Plot Plan so that if anyone else out there in cyberspace wants to set up their very own vegetable plot and has no idea how much it is going to cost, at least this will give you some idea.
As this is my first vegetable plot I know I may go a little overboard to norish, cherish and protect my plants so this is where I get all ‘grand designs’ and completely blow budget as I don’t allow for extras and it ends up costing more than I expected! But we shall see…
Budget: £200
For the whole plot - the three 5 x 4 foot raised beds. This covers timber, soil, manure, seeds, netting, tools, trellis, twine etc.
Contingency Fund: None.
The only thing I found out the cost of was the timber as I knew this would be the most money, although I forgot to add on the stakes. Everything else I am hoping doesn’t go over my budget.
Month to be Completed: A.S.A.P in April 2007
(This will be updated periodically)
Updated! 06.04.07 - Running Total = £172.67
