Pity you're too far away. Have 50x25 foot of garden he could have used.

hi zzxxee , try putting some ads up about where you live ,might be an OAP who can no longer keep on top of their garden who would be glad of someone to work it in return for some veg, hope you are both well

Have a look at Landshare ... there must be someone in your area ... click the link and then ..Go..and wait. http://www.landshare....533243/lng:-2.414046/

Another tip ... I am always being asked if I know of a gardener ( I work mainly with retired or disabled people). When I suggest they offer a part of there garden to someone who wants to grow their own, in return for some free garden mainteance.
Most of them say it;s a great idea ... but where will they find such a person ?

Advertise in your local shop ... '' Free garden maintenance and some fresh veg in return for growing plot in your garden '' .. do it now as spring is just around the corner.
I'm sure you will get some takers.
