Now is the time to start planning which crops you will be growing this year, an exciting time of sowing seeds and anticipating a warm spring. (!!!)
This is an appeal to all gardeners to grow a few extra plants for the TT food projects we are involved in – the 2 community gardens, the annual ‘Seed and Plant swop’ stall at the farmers market in May and our new initiative – Edible Hexham.
All these initiatives are aimed at encouraging local food production and they all need your help ! Please sow a few extra seeds and grow them on for these projects, they will all be gratefully received. Plants are needed from March onwards for the community gardens and Edible Hexham , and more again in May for the plant stall.
Manpower is also needed for these projects. From the experienced gardener to complete novice, we need your help to make things ‘grow.’( pardon the pun !)
