I joined today at the Real Food Festival at Earl's Court. Great show and please keep up the excellent work. I think it's needed more than ever.

More and more people are growing their own veg! Sales of seed packets are reportedly rising by up to 60% on last spring. Many suppliers say vegetable seeds are now more popular than flower seeds.

And it's not just organic food either! There's truly natural (kind to skin) beauty products as well. And clothes made from organic cotton protect the cotton pickers from agrichemicals.
