Goodbye, and thanks for everything

Ann Kelly | 11:50 UK time, Tuesday, 29 September 2009

The tomatoes are nearly all gone, the squash are ripening on the windowsill, and the carrots have all been munched. There's not much left to do or say about the Dig In veg - a good time to bring the blog to an end.

That makes this my last proper Dig In blog - though I'll post if there's any big news, of course. But I'll still check the blog regularly and reply to any comments. I like reading them, and I've really enjoyed the challenge of answering your home-growing questions - I've learnt a huge amount doing it!聽 So, do keep those comments coming.

Over the winter, I'll be working with the rest of the team to make Dig In bigger and better in 2010. We'd love to know your opinions on how we could improve it - send a comment to tell us what you liked about the site or campaign, what didn't work, anything you'd like to see next year, and what seeds you think we should give away next Spring.

Hope you've enjoyed following Sara, Chris and me in our veg-growing exploits, and have had fun growing your own Dig In veg. Goodbye, and thanks to everyone who read and commented on the blog.

Ann
