The first of the heirloom tomatoes are ready for their new homes! These are strictly greenhouse only until the weather improves. Around 20 different varieties ready now, with more to come over the next several weeks.
Zucchini - as well as the self-fertile Partenon, we have Black Beauty, Solar Flare (yellow) plus the prized Italian varieties, Striata and Costata Romanesco (in our view the Rolls Royce among Zucchini!), grown from especially imported Italian seed.
Peas - sugar snap, snowpeas and green garden peas as well as mint and chives.
Dwarf and climbing beans coming along for next week, along with spring onions and hopefully the first of the cucumber, again strictly for greenhouse planting.

Through Ryman’s bespoke model of dementia care, myRyman Life, our villages aim to challenge perspectives on dementia and to create inclusive communities where staff receive cutting-edge training, families can feel reassured, and residents can thrive.

At Ryman villages our focus is on experience-based care rather than processes, enabling residents to live in the moment and to feel kindness, love and security.
