Early #apples don't store, but many picked in October keep for months if stored correctly. If you're replacing an old fridge or freezer - don't #waste it! #Recycled, it makes a perfectly insulated, humidity-controlled apple #store.🍎#Organic #sustainable #healthy #local #realfood

Coalition of school food featured on @BBCFoodProg - Finland & Brazil understood the assignment - feed all children & grow the economy. It’s an INVESTMENT. It’s so simple it’s painful that the Westminster lot don’t get it.
