Oooohhhhh tell me, tell me, tell me

It is a massive problem that's going to hit us all hard very soon - As if it isn't bad enough now!!

I'm going to adapt my allotment I think and grow even more.

But wouldn't it be cheaper to get it delivered from a farm in Kent than a farm in Kenya?

With oil prices set to jump to $200 a barrel by Christmas, maybe it is a blessing in disguise. It would mean that people would start to have to buy locally, less miles, cheaper to the consumer, and therefore more within the natural food cycle. No more tasteless Strawberries in January from Papua New Guinea or grapes from Brazil in March.

What do you think?

Cheers
