Default New to veg gardening

Hi, me and my girlfriend have just moved into a house with a large back garden. We want to start growing our own veg and have no gardening knowledge whatsoever.

Are there any beginner's guides anywhere?

Can anyone recommend some easy things for us to begin with? We want to start a vegetable patch and we also have a greenhouse.

Thanks.

Hi Don, and welcome to a great site for gardening questions. Congrats on the new house and the garden. Some easy things to start with would be radishes, peas, green beans, cabbage, cucumbers, and don't be afraid of a couple of tomatoes. I'm sure others will come along with more ideas, in the meantime good luck!
