Along came our other passion...

The urban farm in our Welling based semi detached garden has grown year on year and with the pollination of the bees and superb west Kent climate supported by our careful rain harvesting we have a regular abundance of produce. Our elderly neighbour donates her apples from a huge old tree every year and other friends are sharing seeds and excess fruit harvests on an annual basis. So along came our other great passion of cooking and baking in a way that gets the best out of every flavour combination to bring about great taste experiences. We developed a range of flavoured oils, jams, jellies and chutneys and packed our boxes and set off to markets. Easier said than done with some of the more picky places who want to fleece you of registration fees and samples in abundance for no purpose other than to line their own larders. However there are also those genuine market holders who are in it for all the right reasons and we have a whale of a time at Kent farmers markets and at Brighton North lane. It has to be said we have received superb feedback from so many people who taste and buy at our stall.
