Well done to all our Little Growers, Learner Plotters and our brilliant garden volunteers for coming today and working hard despite the heat 🔥 Great haul of redcurrants, spinach, potatoes, spring onions, patty pan squash, courgettes. Sowing new beetroot in our communal beds, turning over the compost, chopping back lovage and checking/eating the first mulberries 👍🏽😜

If anyone is looking for some beautiful Verbena Bonariensis perennial plants, we have a good stock, just coming into flower, £5 each.

The bonus is less slugs and snails👌Found a fox curled up asleep this morning in the corner of a plot 🦊Beans, broadbeans, peas, rainbow chard, courgettes, spinach, nasturtiums, radishes, beetroot, salad leaves, herbs all ready today. Learner Plotters creating delicious meals with their produce.

Well done to all our Learner Plotters, Little Grow

Well done to all our Learner Plotters, Little Growers and all other volunteers, the garden is full of delicious organic veg, fruit, herbs + flowers 🍅Visitors today tried rat tail radishes which taste better than they sound 😜 You eat the crunchy purple seed pods rather than the root. Gooseberries, strawberries, blackcurrants, elephant garlic, kale, salad and a selection of plants will be available for a donation this Sunday at the garden. Come and visit 🍓
