Potato Week

Our second annual Potato Week took place at the start of the month 1-8th April. All the community gardens got involved with inviting folk into the gardens for activities and to pick up a potato kit to take home. We also delivered potato kits to several Inverclyde nursery schools and community groups. A total of nearly 400 kits altogther were handed out!

Once again, we are very grateful to Parklea Branching Out for creating a space for ICFN in their polytunnels, enabling us to make up the kits and store them before delivery.

The kits have got alot of people talking about growing and interested in starting to grow some veg at home. We have also had a few more volunteers in the gardens as a result of the marketing and media coverage (thanks again to the Greenock Telegraph!)

We hope everyone enjoys growing and eating their tatties (or totties?!) in coming months!
