A rainbow harvest festival from Bloomfield allotments donated to @Oasis_Bath Roundhill Pantry this week. Since the growing weather improved at the end of July, Bloomfield have generously donated abundant produce every week. Thank you!

Thank you so much @RootsAllotments holders for this week's super stash of donations (and for all donations since June!): Cucumbers, beetroots, cool purple caulis the bountiful enthusiastically grown courgettes! These went to @Weston_hub chefs and @MercyinActionUK pantry.

There was an abundance of surplus vegetables between Christmas and New Year, which we couldn't resist distributing to Community Larders in the Somer Valley: Clutton, Paulton and Timsbury received their share of over 350kg or 4 trolley loads of veg!

Important info to protect hedgehogs! 👇🦔 Please check the food recycling policy of your local council - B&NES do not accept pumpkins as food waste.
What do you do with old pumpkins? Don't to leave them out for hedgehogs 🦔 ➡️ bbc.in/3Q5YZFI
