🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔 As last weekend’s seed swap we also launched the Incredible Edible Barnet potato challenge. Here’s our volunteer Elaine ready to hand out some 🥔🥔🥔 and a very happy Janet picking some up. But don’t worry, there’s still time for you to join the
#barnetpotatochallenge too. If you’ve been thinking about growing more vegetables, potatoes are the plant for you. They are easy to grow, tasty to eat and help to break up London’s clay soil so you can grow other plants too. Our potato challenge is a new idea this year (that we borrowed from our super sisters Incredible Edible Dumfries) to try and get more spuds being grown in Barnet (or further afield if you want to take part too, as everyone is welcome). 🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔 To take part pop along to our plot tidy session and coffee morning in New Barnet this weekend (details on the event tab) and we will give you some FREE seed potatoes to grow at home. We’ve four varieties for you to choose from, so we can collectively test how different types grow. Over the next few months we’ll then pass on hints and tips on how to grow spuds in the ground or containers and depending on the type you took you’ll be harvesting your tasty tatties from June onwards. Throughout the growing season we’ll be posting our potato progress on social media using
#barnetpotatochallenge. If you're growing spuds too please share your stories with us so we can show the world what great potato growers we are in Barnet. 🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔
