Sadly Facebook has filled this page with slop.

There seems little point in continuing

Facebook has drowned this page with slop. I can't get rid of it or stop
it happening.

Anyway as youcan guess there's nothingon the table at the moment

We have reached harvest time and there is a lot of produce that could easily go to waste. Do you have more than you can process easily? There are peaches and gooseberries on the table at the moment.

Thanks to everyone bringing new plants - the table is quite active at the moment with herbs, veg (leeks), and shrubs too.

I see that this page has been flooded with irrelevant rubbish by Facebook that makes it virtually unusable. Foes anyone have ay idea how to stop this happening?

There have been quite a lot of things on the table this spring but they go very quickly! So keep an eye on what's there. Expect more veg plants and seeds soon...

The table is still there and available for use, though there season has been poor and there's not been a lot to share. Feel free to put out produce, seeds etc but with the high winds and rain they'll need some protection from the weather!

Next to the table is Bridge Cottage Cafe. Beatrice is now putting out a box of fresh but unsold baking on the doorstep for free collection rather than wasting it. Next time you're passing, check it out!
