          It feels like Christmas here at Bilton Hall these days! Today another packet of seeds arrived in the post, this time from the brilliant company Real Seeds! They have generously donated one packet each of their entire "Feed the Family Seed Collection"! 11 different types of high quality heirloom varieties, such as:

          *CARROTS - "Saint Valéry"

          *PARSLEY - "Gigante di Napoli"

          *CALABRESE - "Quick Heading"

          *KALE - "Sutherland"

          *FRENCH BEANS - "Dior"

          *BEETROOT - "Golden Detroit"

          *CHARD - "Rhubarb"

          *COURGETTES & SUMMER SQUASH - "Striato di Napoli"

          *PEAS -DWARF - "Kelvedon Wonder"

          *FIELD BEANS - "Vespa"

          *FOUR O'CLOCK PLANT - "Marvel of Peru"

          THANK YOU so much for your generosity, Real Seeds!

          Please visit their website and Facebook page and give them a like! Also, please support them next time you want to purchase high quality seeds for you garden!

          I am so excited now to get the community growing these marvellous vegetables, fruits and legumes! This could be the beginning of real food security for our community!

          We are still only starting up the Porlock Garden Seed Library, but already, with the help of Real Seeds and She Grows Veg we now have 16 different heirloom seeds available!

          We will however constantly be on lookout for more organic and heirloom seed donations to add to the library - and we kindly ask our community to help us connect with the right people/organisations.

          Until then...Keeeep Growing!

          In Comm-Unity,

          Lise x
