Hi everyone,
I just came across this in a leaflet and thought I'd investigate ;)
www.potatoesforschools.org.uk
You can register (well, it let me but we'll see if they send the resources when they realise I am not actually a school :rolleyes: ) and get a free growing kit containing planting seeds, planting advice & a £5 garden centre voucher! Worth a try :)
Even if I don't get the freebies the website has some good resources & info.

I must admit I was sitting here thinking you are too late for seed potatoes, they should have been in the ground weeks ago :laughing:
Ours are already up and growing nicely :thumbsup:

Oh well - I am a bit behind then. Havent started mine yet. Hubby brought me some tyres to stack for the pots but havent filled them up yet. The carrots, onions and peppers are doing great at the moment and have started peeping out.

My minded lot are the same, give it a few weeks and then the higlight of the day will be forking up new pots and having them for tea....
Who says kids need playstations and Wii's :laughing:
