Our Caldecott planter is burning with amazing vegetables and herbs. This was just one days harvest!
Each week when we harvest we put that produce into our kitchen and make lunch, this week our amazing kitchen team had fresh cucumber, beetroot, lettuce and chard.
Hats off to the chef!
We meet up regularly and communicate through our WhatsApp group. Please click to join the group, find out about our future activities, and help us both to maintain and water the planters as well as help plan our future growing projects across the Borough.
