Now I see why Stephanie mentioned she'd been discussing this with my local vicar, Julia Porter - but even St Peter's may not have as much as 10m x 15m to spare, given its very limited, mainly basement surroundings.

Just seen an e-mail enquiry made by Stephanie of the De Beauvoir Association website about Growing Communities' Patchwork Farm project.

Don't know about this yet but would love to know more, please.

The plant sale was always 6th May 2-5pm, Paul just made a mistake when entering the data which he has since corrected. I work with him, so I will suggest he join the food network.
