| Sunflowers | 30 |
| Potatoes | 60 plants |
| Onions | 50 |
| Parsnips | 30 |
| Beetroot | 150 |
| Carrot | 40 |
| Pumpkins/Courgettes | 15 plants |
| Swede | 10 |
| Mooli | 36 |
| Berlotti beans | 20 plants |
| French beans | 9 plants |
| Leeks | 200 |
| Rhubarb | 5 plants |
| Raspberries | 2 bushes |
| Redcurrants | 10 bushes |
