🥗 Just because the weather's getting cooler (and wetter) doesn't mean a lack of locally grown seasonal veggies.

👩‍🌾 We have two excellent growers in #NorthLondon who sell nature friendly food all year: Enfield Veg Co and GROW.

They operate slightly differently, find out more in the comments below 👇

Barnet is lucky enough to be getting two, yes two, new community orchards this winter 🥰

Both have various sessions to join in with the creation, planting and caring for the trees.

Find out more 👇 and pop long to help out 🌳

We had a very apeeling day at the Incredible Edible Barnet Apple and Pear celebration a few weeks ago.

Thanks to everyone who came, donated apples, chopped, crushed, pressed, drank, chatted, tasted, shared food memories, made mobiles, peeled apples and looked for bugs!

Absolute treat to find this little one in my garden this evening!

It was in an area that wouldn't have been easy for it to get out, so it was moved into the veg beds, where it can hopefully snack on all the visiting 🐌🐌🐌🐌

The @bmfforum.bsky.social's Interfaith Gardening and Green Food picnic last weekend, as part of the @london.gov.uk's #MayorsCommunityWeekend, was such an enjoyable day 😍

I loved sharing plants from Incredible Edible Barnet with people from across Barnet and beyond. And the food was delicious too 😋

It doesn't look like any of the Barnet MPs have registered yet. Please can you let us know if you will be attending?

I've been digging into PAN's latest data about council's use of pesticides in 2024 and sadly it's not a pretty picture in Barnet 😞

Compared to other London LAs, Barnet council:

👎 Used the most herbicides (3546 l/kg)
👎 Was 5th worst for litres per sq km
👎 Was 7th worst for cost (£120k)

It should be Volunteers’ Week every week, but this week is more special than the rest!

Here are some super folk who help at our community garden but there are more I know I've failed to snap.

Thank you for keeping our little slice of green that little bit greener and a whole lot more fun💚

This is one of the most depressing things I have read in a long time, and there are lots of depressing things to read right now
