@BRKitchenGarden Growing heirloom varieties is becoming ever more important. They can provide increased resilience, sustainability and biodiversity.

The Heritage Seed Library (UK) is not legally allowed to sell seed. It is too expensive and onerous to register seed for commercial sale.

Instead, people can opt to receive a small number of seeds every year as part of the benefit of membership. #Gardening #HeirloomSeeds #SeedSaving #LandraceGardening

Garden Organic | How the Heritage Seed Library works

The seed library holds over 800 varieties of seeds, including rare landrace varieties adapted to specific growing conditions, heirloom varieties saved…

First pick of the sweet peas from the allotment. Loving these dark colours. They smell gorgeous.

This is one of the best photos I have ever taken and the subject is rather special.

It has two beautiful names - Golden-bloomed Grey Longhorn Beetle and Agapanthia villosoviridescens.

It is very localised and I found it just about within its range. A highly unusual find.

The flight shot was the result of luck, persistence and observation.

Enjoy!

For me it's all about the sweet corn. Here is the first planting (33 pots) one week after sowing. Doing well on the greenhouse bench, now that the night-time pilferage has stopped (mice - dealt with). In one more week they will go in to the ground and the process starts again.😀 🌽

@richrollgardener The plants really look good!
I envy you a little bit for the sheer number of eggplants! That will make lots of servings of twice-baked eggplant (saliva running...).

🤞 there'll be no cold spells.

I was a bit too optimistic with planting out my cucumbers (without fleece cover), but new sowings are on the way in the greenhouse. :-)

Twice-baked stuffed eggplant

Eggplant is so delicious and creamy when baked, so why stop at one round? Fill the vegetable with ricotta, passata and herbs then bake again.

@econads What does it say in the British supermarket ad?
Every little helps.
Maybe your example will make other people on the allotment think about their gardening practices.
Like @Broadfork who leads by example.
