As I have been so busy sorting out the Totally Locally West Bridgford launch, I have had lots of help with leaflet distribution, face painting, help on the stalls and the apple pressing. Some of these friends were fine on gems and did not want any others, this launch was a great opportunity to give back some time to the group and therefore received a gem for their hours' work.

As the community fund was running low, I have been making soups,scones and tomato salads for a gem. All organic and from my garden. I also made up some vegetable boxes for friends to enjoy with excess vegetables from the garden. We are having a great year with tomatoes, courgettes, beetroot, carrots, spinach, garlic and onion and ofcourse that bunch of flowers to cheer up the day. Sunflowers at the moment. I hope my friends get as much pleasure out of the food I have given them as I have receiving their help for the launch.

Just to say thanks for the organic veg/fruit box. Halit made a lovely Turkish veggie casserole and must say even he says you can really taste the diffference - miuch better home grown!

Lots of love

This week's vegetable box was: 6 eggs, lettuces, a box of cherries,strawberries and raspberries, mangetous, peas, new potatoes and a bunch of flowers to cheer up the table

Every now and again, there is an abundance in our household of eggs and organic vegetables.
I will make up a box for 1 gem and announce via the email if and when this is the case.
Made one up today with eggs, peas, strawberries, mixed lettuces, perpetual spinach, onions, garlic and a little bouquet of flowers from around the house and allotment to cheer up the table.
