Results of our vegetable show
« on: September 19, 2010, 08:35:05 »
We've just held our show (St Ives Flower & Produce Show), the first time in 15 years, and it was a great success. If you want to see the results with lots of photos click the link in the footer below.

Thanks, John
We can wish & we can wish
But we can never have
What once seemed ours forever

Some good harvests there.  Envious of the butternut squash.  Aint been able to grow them successfully as yet.  Will be giving them a final shot next year.

Try something easier like Festival or nicer to eat and easier like Burgess Buttercup.... both are a month or more earlier than butternutand buttercups of all descriptions (Bon-Bon would be the other obvious one) are nicer eating than most butternuts.... we only got Butternuts in tis country cos of american airmen, they really are a sod to grow in our conditions...

As one of the early rabbis said, 'Even if she spoils the food'.

Your show is set out a lot neater than ours!
