I popped up to Forest Hill station this afternoon for the Edible High Road event. A good load of people braved the changeable weather, a kids school band belted out some tunes and there were a couple of stalls handing out free plants, how good is that for a Saturday afternoon?

I got some healthy pea plants off the Forest Hill Society and a handful of tomato seedlings off Mihaly from Dig This Nursery in New Cross (they must be the only garden centre in the UK with a record shop attached) who knows a few things about tomatoes (see the post above).

All the plants went in the garden as soon as I got home and put under some protection just to settle them in tonight (even though they’ve been hardened off.) I do hope the event got a few more people interested in that there gardening lark!
