Having a conversation with Judi our Marketing Manager,
she was telling me that she went round to a friends at the weekend and they had
Artichokes which were simply boiled in water and served with butter and black
pepper, yummy!!
I’ve been growing Artichokes for a few years now and
never actually eaten them, always left them too long and just enjoyed the huge
purple flowers and seeing all the bees and insects buzzing over them.

They are an amazing vegetable, one of the highest sources
of antioxidants which are excellent for reducing cholesterol, aiding
indigestion, kidney and gall bladder function and I.B.S!! They are even made into
herbal teas and a liqueur!
Guess what I’ll be cooking at the weekend!!
