Showing off

1 October 2010.

Is there anything more quintessentially British than a village produce show where the locals enter their home-grown produce, crafts and baking. We have just had our annual show as I write this and what a feast of delights it was.

Get into a pickle this autumn

2 September 2010.

I love autumn in the veg garden. True it is sad that the garden is starting to wind down, but there is still a lot to do so that there remains a real buzz about the place.
