We are pleased to announce that G&G will be holding a Harvest Festival on the night of the Harvest Moon, 1st October.
You are warmly invited to join us at this Virtual Event. 
We hope that you will share with us the finest of your crops and produce (in photographic form) and we will soon be listing some items that we would like to receive to make this Festival a success.
Meanwhile, take lots of photos of your veg, fruit and flower harvests and keep the best ones somewhere safe in anticipation.
Further details to follow.

Just to whet your appetites, we'll be needing displays of vegetables, and of fruit and flower arrangements - and we want your finest produce, nothing but the best for our harvest festival.
We'll take a vote on who has brought the best, there may even be an award for the Very Best!

Brilliant idea Veggie  .
I’m very excited about a harvest festival. A great way for everyone to get involved.
Builder that would like to go play in the garden.

I've not been on a veg arranging course, are there any virtual courses available?
A pocket knife is not a weapon in the right hands it’s an essential garden tool.

We're not going to share our Festival with any riff-raff outsiders

Do like the idea of a 'harvest vegetable' as our kids used to call it.

Don't worry about the "arrangement/display" bit - that's just me trying to impress you.
It'll be more like 3 Root veg, 5 blooms of any sort that you've grown yourself (therefore, not Himalayan Balsam, Mikey), a selection of fruit and, not forgetting our strangely shaped Trombone Squash and the Tallest Sunflower.
