GREEN SQUIRREL SUMMER CELEBRATIONS @GLOBAL GARDENS

This month we collaborated with Green Squirrel and Lia's Kitchen, to help create a virtual summer supper that can be expeienced from the comfort of your own home.

Poppy hosted a virtual garden tour of the Global Gardens allotment, Lia’s Kitchen shared a cocktail and mocktail recipe inspired by the garden and for the main course, Vaida One Small Spoon shared a seasonal courgette recipes. All videos are accompanied by tunes from Welsh musicians Ritual Cloak.

First off, let's head to Global Gardens where Poppy invites you to explore the veg beds, the poly tunnel, the herb garden and lots more!

Next up it’s Lia from Lia’s Kitchen with this garden inspired herbal muddle cocktail and a mocktail too. Think wild strawberries, freshly picked mint, lemon and even some salad burnet – this cocktail really does taste like a summer evening in the garden!

And here’s a musical interlude whilst Lia shares how the garden inspired her herbal muddle cocktail, featuring the song ‘High teens low twenties’ from the latest Ritual Cloak album, Divine Invasions. Sit back, relax and enjoy! Poppy is chuffed to be a 'botanical muse'!

Lastly, for the main course at our Virtual Summer Supper Vaida from One Small Spoon welcomes us into her kitchen to share not one, not two but THREE delicious ways to cook up courgettes this season!
