The amount of chemicals on the berries we buy really concerns me. I’m always grateful when they start fruiting here. This year I’ve picked almost 7kilos of youngberries from my organically grown plant. They are almost finished but we should get one or two kilos more.

My wife @Sherly Sumampong is a wonderful cook and in today's video she is sharing a simple traditional Filipino recipe that was passed down from her mother, YEH! Exciting yes? It's a Spring Roll recipe that they call Lumpia. Will you make this too and follow my lovely wife's recipe? Let us know in the comments. If you do, please share your experience here with others in the community. I know many of us, including myself, want to see your journey in the garden and kitchen.

This is an easy way to turn chokos into a meal. Simply slice in half lengthways, remove seed and boil till tender (about 15 mins for medium chokos).Place in a baking tray and scoop out a little more from where the seed was. Fill with diced bacon, finely chopped tomato and grated cheese. Bake in a moderate oven for 20 minutes then enjoy while hot. This recipe was from @Steve Thomas our VIP member. He sent this to me and I like it so much I decided to posted it in recipes from the Garden Our Chokos in the garden are about to start setting fruit so this will be on the menu. Will you give Steves recipe a go? Maybe you have something different to share in the comments below with us all. Happy Gardening Marty
