About me

We have had 1.5 acres of citrus orchard in the Algarve for 7 years. No shortage of water, occasional floods in winter. Soil is poor for vegetale growing and we have stopped sowing seeds. We can buy all types of seedling at the monthly markets which give better results.
Am interested in raised beds and have looked at everyting on this site. Very informative, thanks. Can anyone suggest the soil mix that I should use, given that my soil is so poor.
