All gone as at 3 June 😊

A note from Church Lane Produce in Spelsbury (re Hannen's comment below), to save you a trip if you are looking for plants; we aren't really geared up for plant sales but occasionally sell any that are surplus to our needs - at the moment we just have a few plum tomato and plenty of coriander plants - we will have other herbs, sweet peppers etc. in a week or so!

I think that's all my seedlings gone probably.  But, is there anyone with a greenhouse who would like to experiment with a tomatillo?  They've been very slow to germinate, and suddenly I appear to have three.

I would like a few tomato seedlings too if possible. The Deli had a few plants last week which was lovely.

Liz, I would love some tomato seedlings; what variety/ies do you have?

Mon 4 May 2020, 20:54

Yes please, Liz, to broccoli and a couple of tomatoes!

Mon 4 May 2020, 20:52

I've got 12 lettuce seedlings, 6 each of two varieties. I also have 6 broccoli seedlings.  I will have masses of spare tomato seedlings, but I was thinking of taking them up to the Deli.

If you are looking for growbags, Applegarth is the only one I've found which can supply peat-free ones (Sylvagrow), as well as other peat-free composts.

Church Lane Produce at Spelsbury have a surplus of plants ready to grow on - plum tomatoes, peppers, herbs (coriander and basil), brassicas, lettuce, cucumbers and courgettes growing on in the greenhouses. 

"We'll soon have some giant yellow sunflowers and nasturtiums for sale that will brighten up any garden as they grow."

 Full details on their fb page.

To add to Helen's comments, Applegarth's at Chippy are doing free delivery or collection from the car park, although you have to call to order: 01608 641642. They are very busy, so you may need to persist to get through, but I've been able to get through a number of times when I've called between 9-9.30am

Whilst my next batch of seedlings are coming through I thought I’d share some places to order online as there is far more interest than I have plants! Delivery is still available (it may cost more than usual and take longer) and other places have a collection option.

Thank you, Helen, for offering to be a distribution hub! I am looking for some tomato plants (Sungold, Gardeners Delight and/or a plum or Marmande type) -- up to 5 in total -- as well as some sweetpea seedlings and lettuce seedlings. If my recently planted (in paper pots) climbing and dwarf beans all succeed, I'll be able to contribute to the plant swap. I live off Market Street, and can collect from you or, if you prefer to deliver, give you directions.

Helen,  I would be very happy to have tomato seedlings (and make a donation) whenever they are ready. We are 7 Market Street if your bike takes you that far.  Thank you, Patricia

Rosemary and Gillian, I have kept some seedlings back for you. Otherwise, they have all been delivered! I’ve planted more tomatoes and beans but they won’t be ready for a couple of weeks. If anyone has excess veg seedlings they would like to DONATE spare veg plants please let me know as I would be happy to find new owners for them within the village.

I have a few spare veg seedlings-some tomatoes (Gardeners Delight or Alicante) a few dwarf beans and, soon, some lettuce. They are all quite small but growing well. No payment but if you wanted to make a donation I work for the university and at aiming to raise £100 towards Coronavirus research projects: https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/fundraiser-display/showROFundraiserPage?userUrl=Helen&pageUrl=4. I can deliver in Charlbury on my daily bike ride
