Your heap is decorated with sweet orange baubles for the season. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThat is an impressive looking heap.
ReplyDeleteGood grief! That's a compost heap and a half! There is a healthy population of slugs in our current one and they would love this dining-in opportunity!
ReplyDeleteIs this also a Great Dixter photo, they like their huge planted compost heaps.
ReplyDeleteRecently baked a small pumpkin with the top cut off, stuffed with nuts and dried figs...delicious. Used the left overs to make an upside pudding, topped with ginger sponge. Never had them sweet before. This was a small one. Of the ones I used to grow Turks Turban was my favourite. Will you be eating yours Anna?
ReplyDeleteIs it Great Dixter again? I remember they have massive compost heaps. Or is it yours at your allotment?
ReplyDeleteI'm going to say definitely Great Dixter! They have THE most impressive compost heaps and I know that Aaron, the veg gardener, loves to grow pumpkins in the heap. I have a similar sight at my local city farm - the stable sweepings are left to rot in huge heaps and the pumpkins grow very vigorously on those heaps throughout the summer - a glorious sight!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your lovely comments. Yes it's a fabulous heap at Great Dixter. I do grow pumpkins at the allotment but haven't tried this method yet though one or two plot holders do with great results. Noelle - your recipe ideas sound most delicious :)
