Fruit and Vegetables wanted @ Cookie

We don't have an allotment unfortunately , but we do grow some veggies on our roof and in our stairwell [glazed cupola means it's a bit like a greenhouse]. I use we quite loosely, as last year I grew some rocket, other salad leaves and some herbs. Alburt on the other hand grew tomatos, strawberries, green beans, potatos, peppers, courgettes, onions etc. It's a great feeling to sit down and eat something you have grown yourself.

So I was interested in learning that Cookie on Nithsdale Road, are looking for gardeners and allotment growers to grow veggies and fruit for them or alternatively you can share your excess with them, through a bartering system.

Some of the vegetables will be used in the restaurant and others will be sold outside on their veggie stand. I like the idea of having food grown just around the corner in Queens Park allotments or from a garden along the street.

Interesting idea! We have a tomato plant in our window each year. Maybe we could swap a few tomato's for something!!
