Organic box scheme
I'm back after some computer problems curtailed my blog for a while. Well, there's really not much kitchen gardening going on "around ours". This is not the way I want it to be, but I am working full time at a job 45 miles away, and my husband is having health problems and doing very well just to keep the lawn mowed. (And don't hate me for not doing the lawn; I am allergic to cut grass and really can't do it. Anyway, I am politically opposed to lawns but that's another subject.)
So, I got really angry at the organic food available in our local supermarket. They do have organic produce but a lot of it is either from another country or over-packaged or both. So we have joined an organic box scheme. We have had three boxes in the past three weeks, and it is great. Lots of local (well, at least British) seasonal veg, minimal packaging, excellent value. I recommend it either to replace or supplement your own growings.
