Our aim
We aim to help local people start to grow their own. We have been doing this since 2011. We try to get people started by providing plants that are ready to be grown on. We started with tomatoes about 1500 of them! And have since moved on to about a dozen different vegetables.
What we offer
In 2016 we expect to offer the follwoing plants:
- Tomatoes various varieties
- Chilis
- Beans, french, runner, borlotti
- Squash, butternut
- Pumpkins
- Cabbages
- Cauliflower
- Herbs, coriander, parsley and others
And the following seeds:
- Luttuce, various
- parsnip
- beans as above and broad
The abaove seeds and plants can be used to enter the Village Show in September.
Can you help?
If you would like to help with this project please be in touch. If you have a greenhouse and could spare a little space that would be fantastic.
Getting growing
The first seeds were sown on 16 February, about 200 tomato seeds.

The first are starting to germinate! When they are about 10cm high, these plants will be transplanted to their own little pots.
