Sorry for the duplicate. Said the first didn't go through. I can't figure how to just delete this one!
A garden means the land surrounding the house where you live either front or back or even side in some cases. What is grown in it is irrelevant. It is still a garden with the only distinction being front or back.

Some people work an ‘allotment’, which is a piece of land hired from the local authority where the tenant will grow predominantly vegetables.

The latest score from my wilderness is slugs and snails NIL – me 34 and not a single leaf touched by the varmints.
