However, an intrepid band of LODHS growers were deep into developing a scheme to encourage first time growers to make a start. All this took place on our Facebook pages under the banner "LOVE" ((Limpsfield and Oxted Veg Experiment).
All this activity culminated in boxes of assorted veg being ready for collection on Saturday 16 May. Each collection was timed and organised so that social distancing was maintained. Advice will continue to be given, so keep a watch on this link to Facebook.
Our thanks also go to all those who purchased boxes, and we trust they will have an enjoyable and successful venture growing their own vegetables.
Chairman Rick had this to say:
"The 2020 Plant sale turns to LOVE (Limpsfield and Oxted
Veg Experiment) has been a resounding success, well done
to everybody involved.
My
thanks especially to Sally, Kate, Morag and Karen
without their enthusiasm and commitment it would not have
happened.
My thanks also to everyone who grew plants for the sale.
I think this could be the start of a new direction for the
Society.
Thanks, again and well done to all."
