There maris piper. We left it a bit late to buy the sets and so were limited on choice.

Hi all. I called in at the farm at Weeley this morning and all the spuds are up and looking good.
A few weeds but I am sure that Robert and the Trusty will soon be there and will be having a weed out.
Or maybe a hand hoe job.
Also the track for the Weeley wander has been extended a bit to include the fishing lakes and
the orchard below the lakes.
See you all in September.
