Thanks for all of you who came last Saturday to buy potatoes, beans, peas, onions and garlic. It was a great morning, though we still have a lot of maincrop potatoes and onions if anyone wants them or knows who might like a load. They are at Oakenclough for collection Monday mornings from 10am, or Wednesday & Friday afternoons, or Sunday 25th Feb from 2pm.
