Potatoes straight from garden
When we came home in July the potatoes I had left in the cupboard had started to shoot so Dave stuck them in a large plant pot. They were actually quite an attractive plant and today he dug them up and we had some with dinner. They were really tasty and it was so little effort for something we would have only have thrown away.
We have just planted the ones that were sprouting when we got home this time. |

From a neighbouring allotment with pork chops from a friends naturally fed pigs Have grown potatoes in pots or bags for years as our soil gets too wet at times best tasting tattles you will ever get are home grown |

I have chives growing but they are just so pretty I never pick them. I am a proper townie at heart and could not eat any animal I ever knew alive. I couldn't even eat Welsh lamb when we went to Wales and I nearly ran a mile (ok massive exaggeration) when the egg farmer said I could choose my Christmas turkey from a field of live ones. And I have never eaten duck since next door but one put a duck pond in their garden. I know it's illogical but I really can't help it.
