Here’s something that’s well up our street, a bit in advance though but one well worth sticking in the diary all the same.
Roots & Shoots Potato Day
Sunday 12th February 2016
11.00am-2.00pm
Walnut Tree Walk
Lambeth
London
SE11 6DN
www.roots&shoots.org
Potatoes, seeds, sets, fruit trees and bushes on sale and other stalls. Admission charge and all funds to Roots & Shoots.
A few years ago we attended a Potato Day event at Sydenham Girls School (post here) and it was great. It had a mix and match seed potato sale, bulbs, fruit canes and even a seed swap. It was only a few quid to get in and the spuds weren’t too badly priced either.
We’re not sure about the admission price or if there is a seed swap at the Roots & Shoots event but we’ll put the feelers out. It’s a great venue, as a few years ago we attended an Introduction to Beekeeping course there. After a while when we were there we forgot we were actually in London. Do pencil it in the diary…
