This happy crowd of SEEOG members were their first official group visitors, They had the flags out for the occasion and tea … lots of tea.
We had a guided tour of the plot and were most impressed by the vertical gardening up and over the shed. Some concerns were expressed about the roof under the weight of their impressive pumpkin (Vic!)
We then had a discussion about suggestions for winter planting, over a cup of tea, and then it was time for lunch….
Vic and Duncan then tackled the sadly blighted tomatoes in the greenhouse. It was an experiment, since they couldn’t get the daily TLC they really need. Recipes for green tomato chutney were swapped.
They’re excited and hopeful about the melons…
The others set to weeding some of the beds and digging up more potatoes. They’ve really had a good harvest.
And then, all too soon it was time to leave. Thank you, everyone, for inviting us!
