Dig for Victory Garden – Anderson Shelter with food crops sown on top!

The garden is a realistic working portrayal of a war-time Dig for Victory garden which is open to the public, along with the 1940's house on the last Sunday of every month.

The garden is planted following exactly the war-time reccommendations of the Ministry of Food – right down to their cropping plan.

Using 1940's materials and resources the garden provides a year-round supply of vegetables to supplement the meagre war-time rations.

Surplus plants - both vegetables and flowers are available for sale and and seasonal organic vegetables are also on sale on a "pick-your-own" basis subject to availability.

"Potato Pete" would be really pleased!
