More tomatoes and a couple of courgettes. Yep I know the tomatoes are yellow. That’s how we do things around these Estuary Wild parts. Ditto for the courgettes.
There was an alarming email that went out from the Allotment Gods bemoaning the lack of entries for the Wivenhoe Allotment and Garden Association show. This is coming up in a couple of weeks.
The email was a call to arms for entrants. It was a classic begging case of use it or lose it.
My concern here is that you will only exhibit things that are relatively fresh that you have harvested from your allotment in the past few days or so. My allotment is a means to an end. I want to grow food and then I want to eat it.
To be honest I don’t give a shit about exhibiting my funny-shaped courgettes that look like penises to the rest of the world.
TUCK IN!
