VEGIE/FRUIT trading

Possible idea...............

surely not new ...BUT

WHY not invite trade off pick your pears, apples and plums in exchange for someone elses

surfeit of tomatos, courgettes and cabbage?

Set up your groups here....discuss....who, what and where.

Time to do this now that we are in hibernation mode?

It will be completely the wrong weather when I arrive but you've got me started on the idea now. I'm only going to have a small little veggie patch (small garden) but hey, I can make a start and see what happens. Plus it's another way to torture Shaun - when it warms up make him do several runs with a half full watering can (too heavy for him otherwise). He might enjoy growing 'stuff' and it could even encourage him to eat something green. Definitely worth a try. Thank you for the advice!

Barbara - your message just popped up so I checked the map. Maybe 150 miles?

In 87 Haute-Vienne.

I've got what should be a veggie patch, except it's in the shadow of the house, and on a north-facing slope! At least I've got river water for irrigation.
