If anyone knows Freddie Allington or his family can you please ask them to get in touch? Have posted on Thrapston community pages but it’s pending admin approval.

£140.16 donation just made to Your Local Air Ambulance WNDLR. This brings the total to £629. Still have a few tomato plants and a couple of bottles of Tomorite so please get in touch if you want any (and hopefully get us over the £650 mark).

Forecast for tonight is down to 1 Celsius. The basket and bedding plants might not be too happy - and neither will tomatoes. Ideally bring them under cover by dusk. If they can’t be moved (heavy pots/in borders) then cover with horticultural fleece. I have a small quantity and can drop round if you’re in Thrapston today(donation appreciated). Please email.

A few tomato plants still left (£1.25) and four bottles of Tomorite (£4 each).

This was order 38 - my last order for plants and a. ‘carbon neutral’ delivery was made on Tuesday (I walked). Thanks JW for the extra donation. Another £250 was paid to Your Local Air Ambulance WNDLR last night - a good part of it thanks to Mr P who made a £65 donation for my time spent yesterday planting up over 20 pots with pretty much all my remaining plants.

Tomorite fertiliser. Liquid fertiliser not just for tomatoes but also great for planted up basket plants and summer bedding. Much easier to use than soluble granules. £4 per 1 litre bottle (delivery Thrapston and Islip). Bought on multibuy so £1 from each sale will go to Your Local Air Ambulance WNDLR and still cheaper than Tesco. Few tomato plants still available at £1.25 each. Varieties - Black Cherry and Maskotka.

Only a few odds and ends left now - and unfortunately disappointed a few people who came in with some requests after I‘d collected the plants. Considering another trip to Lincolnshire - but need enough orders to make it worthwhile and have a decent mix of plants. If you’ve ordered plants, do you want more? If you’ve not ordered, would you like to? Comments welcome below!

Plant pots! If you don’t want your plant pots once you’ve planted your plants (and you live in Thrapston or Islip) then please let me know. I’ll walk round and collect them as they’ll be useful for growing tomato plants next year. Thanks.

First payment made to Your Local Air Ambulance WNDLR of £119. Have a couple of payments due for deliveries made this weekend and still some plants to deliver. Thanks to FH, MH, HW, VB, CF and HK for making generous additional donations.
