Guess the weight of our giant Pumpkin!

Look at our brilliant massive pumpkin grown here in Knowle West. Guess it's weight by Monday morning and we'll announce the winner on Monday afternoon. Whoever is closest gets a pot of homemade jam.....

Filwood Gets Fit at our beautiful allotment today - sunshine and smiles

Many thanks to Kate Cooke for the exercise class - really nice to meet some new people. We made a hearty omelette using eggs, potatoes, onions and courgette from the allotment AND a Greek salad using red onion, tomatoes, herbs and cucumber from the allotment - next year we just need to grow olives and make the feta!
