Another cracker of a day, this time with our wonderful Roots community and many, many visitors celebrating the harvest, especially of Squash. Click on any of the photos for a bigger version.
The Welcome table at the gate
We used a human chain of all the people to bring the squash in for drying before storage. The children each took a parent onto the squash patch and the harvesting began in earnest. Each beautiful vegetable was handed around the chain and put on the racks to ripen off.
A delicious lunch was made for every volunteer, a very tasty tomato sauce with spaghetti.
There were other activities for children including the Gratitude Tree which was a delight.
Lastly there was a parade around the garden led by the trio Jaclarabag with such verve that got everyone dancing at the end of the walk.
And tonight we are just home from a brilliant evening at The Redruth Comedy Club where Mark Steele and Marcus Brigstock kept us laughing all evening.
