Story
This October, Ian and Natalie are using their giant pumpkin to raise funds for Saint Michael's Hospice:
Stephen was a very close friend and chef, when he became ill he went to stay at Saint Michael's hospice, where he was unbelievably well looked after! A little time later we got married and decided to set up an allotment to try be self sufficient and also to give back to Saint Michael's some fresh organic produce, fast forward several years and Ian's pumpkin obsession has grown, Steve would have loved this project.
Sooooo year on year Ian's perfected growing and we wanted to raise some funds through something we enjoy. £1 to guess the weight of the pumpkin.... hope you all enjoy it as much as we have seeing it grow!
The pumpkin will be making an appearance at the Wellington Inn ,Darley on Sunday 24th October and Monday 25th followed by Kendalls butcher's Skipton Road Harrogate on Friday 29th October.
