The other large pumpkin weighing about 45kg was cut up and shared today.
As there is now little outside gardening to do, we have started to make our seed order list. We have a varied agenda each week - as the weather is not that good if you want to practise reading English and learn more about growing food at the same time come along and join us! We will have a variety of gardening books to look through over the winter months.

Sharing out the pumpkin
Yesterday we shared out two of the rather large atlantic giant pumpkins grown on my allotment with Lansbury Gardeners. The two pumpkins were shared out with at least 12 households, and we still have one more left!
Have just had roasted pumpkin soup made with part of our portion - very tasty. Probably make some curry with the rest.

Menteath House Garden
The garden is now pretty much finished in terms of the major build. The final three bags of bark went down this morning with help from Poplar HARCA who arrived just as I was starting to flag...
Ten households growing their own food in a small corner of east London next to their homes.

Potatoes
June, Mary and Lucille harvested some potatoes today. The crop wasn't that big, but they were very excited!

Hafiza's peas
Purple and green peas, grown by Hafiza. A very wet morning, so wet we could barely get out in the garden - managed a few minutes. Spent the morning chatting.

Carrots!
Today Guley harvested the first of her carrots. Had a great day in the garden - tasting peas and rocket and working out what were weeds and what were not...
Great Radishes!
Umme (left) has managed to grow some very large radishes in her first year at the Hind Grove garden. She shared them with June.
