Celebrating spuds

imageWe have experimented this year with potatoes in plastic compost bags using around a third of our own compost as well as compost from old grow bags and pots.

Yippee … The Sharpes Express first earlies are showing signs of life along with one or two of the Charlotte second earlies. Can it be this easy?

We’ve registered for Miles of Spuds, set up by The Green Centre, Brighton. It turns out that the Sussex Land Army women planted a mile of potatoes across Brighton during the Second World War and this initiative is to celebrate that.

We are a small community gardening group at London Rd Station, Brighton - a group of neighbours getting together to grow things on disused land at the station, and enhance the area with plants. We are also a composting hub - and the compost gets used on the gardens.
