Visit to Gardens Organic, Ryton, September 2008

On Saturday 27 September we went to the Gardens Organic just beyond Ryton-on-Dunsmore (just beyond Coventry). We joined a guided tour to start with and it was very interesting round the herb garden and organic pest-control, but we left it at the composting garden and went round on our own. A very interesting set of gardens, some really lovely ones too. We had a break about half way through for a coffee and biscuit in the van. We stayed there right to the end at 5.
