Toddy, as its known to its locals is a place of inspiration and boldness. They have turned their whole town into an abundant basket of food growing spaces. Here is a small glimpse of their genius and creativity. Do click on the link further down to see more on their website.
This visit was run by Food 360 and Longhill Link up Trust, So thanks to them both :-)

A rather fine planter and seat made from simple planking - one to complement by copying.
