I don't think I'll be able to make it but I'm ever so impressed by what I can see in the photos. Beautiful plots.

Had some amazing news last night, my mum is driving up from London today to come to the Open Day!  :o She will have left already (likes to take her time with plenty of tea stops), frantic house cleaning is in progress...... ;D
Looks like it will be a nice day too! 8)

Just back from the open day.

Met Saddad at the entrance eagerly grabbing your money for all the various items on sale.Fruit and veg and plants too.Came away with a large bag of plums and some lettuce seedlings plus some chinese cabbage also.

Deb P was there too with her family.Hubby was putting their "shed" together.Its not the normal shape you would expect but it will look great when its finished.

170 plots on the site,much much bigger than our site of 24 gardens!

Enjoyed my day out.Made a change to see how other people manage.Worth every penny.

Nice to meet you too! My shed will be very 'interesting' when it is finished, which may be some time.... :-\

My mum had a great day out, she has just set out for London again before it gets dark, she really enjoyed the day, was amazed how many people stopped for a chat! She also left laden with damsons....8)
