Hi Biscombe, unfortunately Future Foods are no more, they used to stock really interesting and unusual edibles (imho).

Got the stuff this morning, thanks. I've put the oca in pots for the time being. Funnily enough I got some more in another swap yesterday, so I'm obviously fated to grow it!

Got mine today ..PM'ed you...many thanks

A quick note to Biscombe...Still have Future Foods last catalogue but now defunked. PM me and I'll email it. Perhaps more interestingly the owner of Future Foods wrote a book that is a bible for unusuals called "Growing Unusual Vegetabes" by Simon Hickmott....I swear by my copy.

Glad everythings arrived ok.
It definitely must be destiny Robert.
I'd like to second 'Growing Unusual Vegetables' is a fab book, well worth it particularly if you are interested in unusual crops.
