    Would you not just call them allotments..................!?!?

    Mini plots
    Mini garden plots
    Vegetable patches
    Vegetable plot

    I always like something that does what it says on the tin - so if you're on Bryce Road, you'd call them The Bryce Road Allotments. When you're launching something basic like this, I genuinely believe that an easy to remember name that helps people (e.g. gives a location) is best. It's not like you're trying to sell a range of lipsticks.

    Otherwise, it depends what added value you provide to the service. If you've just sectioned an acre of land into plots, and the work comes from the plot renter, that's not really a booming business. If, however, you offer to sell seeds, compost, fertilisers, training stakes and trellises, materials for raised beds, materials for pathways between beds, seedling plants, and so on, that's a business.

    In that case, you want something that indicates you provide both the garden centre and the garden, as it were.
