Some social housing doesn't allow in ground growing but it doesn't mean you can't have a great growing space for herbs, soft fruit and a few veg in containers.

Rental Properties can be incredibly difficult to get permission to grow a vegetable garden unless you use preexisting garden beds.
Making use of the space you have is a wonderful way to get food in the ground quickly and efficiently and without too much fuss and added funds.
Sometimes You Have Grow Up ^
Making the best use of vertical spaces like fences and walls is a great way to add extra growing space.
Make the best use of what you have and remember plants that tend to be grown upwards, naturally like to grow down as well.
