Melbicks Garden Centre

Story location: Home / Blog /
01/May/2006

Last bank holiday, we went for a drive over to Melbicks, mainly for a look around (because that's what you are supposed to do on a bank holiday) but also to buy some veg (for the kitchen, not for the garden - they sell food there as well). There were a lot of samples of free food available.

We decided to go back today (it being may bank holiday) to see what was available. Rather disappointingly, there weren't many free samples on offer. We did buy a bag of frozen summer fruits, to make a smoothie. When we got home I left the fruit out to defrost before making the smoothie, adding pears, apples and grapes. It ended up very thick and dark, and the summer fruit flavour was very strong. It tasted great but I think next time we will need to use less of them.
