i have finally got round to digging up a substantial part of my garden to 'grow my own.' tomorrow i will be digging in manure.

i live in a very small village in north east highlands and i was wondering if i could plant anything at all this time of year or should i wait. i've never done this before and all the advice available would be greatly received.

thank you for looking
