How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Comments are stored on the hosting company – WordPress servers.

About Me

Hi, I’m Tracey — vegetable grower, passionate learner, and firm believer that anyone can grow their own food. While I work as an account manager during the day, my spare time has been dedicated to growing vegetables in my back garden for the last 23 years.

What started as a hobby grew into a passion, and now I’m building a place where others can learn too. This is your veg-growing hub for practical advice, seasonal inspiration, beginner-friendly learning, and real gardening experiences from someone who’s grown through every success and setback.

Real gardening, real learning, real harvests.
