What a wonderful day for an Allotment Show!
Celebrating home grown fruit, vegetables and flowers and many domestic classes.
I was honoured to judge all the homemade food and preserves. I tasted absolutely everything and the standard was very high - well done everyone ๐๐ป๐๐ป

Itโs time to plan your plot and start sowing seeds!
We begin, this month, with the Nightshade family (Solanaceae):
๐ถ๏ธ Chillies
๐ซ Peppers
๐ Aubergines
๐ Tomatoes
A heated propagator will give them the best start, or keep it simple by popping your pots in a clear plastic bag ๐ฑ
I had a great time at @HenCorner yesterday at Saraโs amazing Introduction to Making Cheese course.
A practical course delivered with authoritative knowledge, passion and good humour. 10/10!
Itโs amazing to have this on our doorstep in #Brentford.
