Order to eat things
"Dave Hill" wrote I am amazed at all this talk of wasting so much "Surplus" food, Doesn't anyone have friends, neighbours who wouls appreciate some "Eresh" fruit and veg, also one or 2 local OAP's, then there is freezing, salting and jam and chutney making. If your courgets are to many then let some grow into marrows, when properly ripe they will last well into the winter. I always keep my best peas and beens on the plant to ripen for next years seed( on this subjuec I use a blue flower spray to mark the pods I am keeping so that they dont get picked by accident). With runner beans I do 2 sowings, with the 2nd sowing end of June/ early July so that they will crop almost till the frost. We give some to family/friends but none of them live close so do I drive them there? If I do I put up the cost of MY veg so it's a lot cheaper and easier to return them from whence they came, the soil, if we aren't going to see them anyway. Neighbours do take some, but Runner Beans, for example, are a British veg so only two households would eat those. -- Regards Bob Hobden W.of London. UK |
