Easter Weekend at Woodside

What a gorgeous morning to start the Easter Weekend at Woodside. The first of our baby vegetable packs are now available and selling fast. We will be getting more over the next few weeks, so please don’t worry if you have missed out this time. Please note that all tomato plants will need heated conditions at the moment, such as a heated greenhouse. There will be plenty more tomato plants coming on for those of you with unheated greenhouses.

For this weekend we have packs of:
Purple Sprouting Broccoli
Green Calabrese
Red Cabbage (Limited numbers)
Cauliflower (Limited Numbers)
Spinach (Limited Numbers)
Lettuce Cos (Limited numbers)

Leek Musselburgh
Sweetcorn
Tomato Alicante
Tomato Gardener’s Delight
Tomato Shirley
Tomato Ailsa Craig
Tomato Moneymaker

Herbaceous Plants

A delivery of herbaceous plants has arrived today (Good Friday). This means that we have a good selection of hardy perennials for the weekend, to add to our large choice of garden plants. The weather forecast is perfect for planting, and the sun is to shine for at least two days, so it’s the ideal time to get out into the garden.

Also for this Easter weekend at Woodside we have a selection of UK made wooden troughs and planters – as featured in the photograph.

We have trellis backed planters, suitable for short climbers and for screening, troughs on legs suitable for salad, vegetable and herbs, as well as square and rectangular troughs for patios, driveways and front doors. These are all very well priced, so do come in and take a look. We recommend that you line them with used compost sacks or bin bags for best results.

Easter in the Tearoom

In the Birdhouse Tearoom we have some delicious Easter Specials for you.

Try our new handmade oven baked Scotch Eggs, made here at Woodside by Mandy, using local free-range organic eggs and are available in four flavours – Pork & Apple, BBQ, Chilli and Herb. On the specials board we have Coronation chicken on this weekend.

Sue has been busy baking some Easter treats: Simnel Cake, Easter Spiced Biscuits and Chocolate Nests are all ready for you to enjoy, along with all our usual favourites. The tearoom is likely to very popular this weekend – so I’d recommend booking for indoor seating on 01835 830315. There’s plenty of space outside on our picnic tables, so no need to book if you’re happy to sit outside in the Spring sunshine.

As usual, for all enquiries and reservations, please call us on 01835 830315. The office will be closed until Tuesday, so emails and enquiries through social media will not get picked up!
