Never mind the first signs of Christmas in the shops (this year it was wrapping paper in Woolies in August), I may have found the first sign of the coming season - A Potato Day!
Buckingham Nurseries - one of my all time favourites so I hope you don't mind the plug - have announced their Potato Day over the weekend of 17/18th February.
Kelso on 4th March. If anyone finds out about Gala could they let me know - ta
Ryton Coventry... Sat 27th Jan (members) and Sun 28th Public... (9:30-5:00 ) both days....
I'll be going prob the Sat. £5:00 and £4:50 (Concessions) for full paying Public, something like £1:50 for members.
:)
Can't find anything about the Buckingham Nursery one, wouldn't mind trying it instead of the Ryton one for a change
There's a potato day in Dulwich, sometime in January. Can't wait! ;D
Have mine already ordered.I will have the following potatoes:Dore
Catriona
Texla
Record
If someone have grown some of these,mayby he can tell me his results.
would be interested to know if there is a potato day anywhere in the south west [I am in cornwall]?
