What’s Happening in October at Vine House Farm AUTUMN HIGHLIGHTS

The seasonal change is well underway & the time has come to once again enjoy the wonderful produce that autumn has to offer. Pumpkins & squashes are a particular highlight with their vibrant colours & interesting patterns. They are delicious roasted, made into soup or even spiralised as a gluten-free alternative to pasta. The spaghetti squash will even take the hard work of spiralising away, as once roasted it will simply turn into spaghetti like strands with the use of a fork.

ENJOY.... APPLES & PEARS

English apples & pears not only taste wonderful but buying British also supports our local growers. The season began with Discovery & we now have Gala, Russet & Cox, widely regarded as the finest of all eating apples. We grow our own Conference pears, which have a very sweet & juicy flesh, a real treat.
