    What will you use it for
    1.This summer
    2.Over the next 2 or 3 years
    3.Permanently

    Is it for.

    1. Childrens play area.
    2. Socialising
    3. Growing veg to feed the family
    4. Mixture of all these

    You need to take some time and put thoughts down on a piece of paper and then when you have the basic ideas of what you want let us know.

    You will get loads of intelligent and helpful assistance from GW but most will ask you "What do YOU want ? " so give it some thought.

    It looks like you already have a good base there - a path, decking, trampoline, the fire pit. You could use the pallets and timber leftovers to make some furniture for around the fire pit. Then some grass seeds, maybe some flowers from seeds. This all would cost very little money but it needs your work and imagination. You could also add some shrubs next to the fence.
