We were delighted to see AutoPot systems being championed at the Todmorden Agricultural Show. Good friends of AutoPot Ian and Cash from Greenleaf Hydro and Todmorden Hydro had many a snoot cocked in the direction of the AutoPot kits on their stand. Community growing and self-sustainability was very much the message behind the show as a whole. Ian and Cash had a busy day showing people how, for a very little outlay, you can grow your own food indoors.
Events in Todmorden were spread all over the town. Ian and Cash ran their stand in conjunction with Incredible Edibles on ‘Pollination Street’. Incredible Edibles use public spaces such as ‘Pollination Street’ to grow fruit, veg and herbs for anyone to take, all they ask is that people replace those plants harvested with others if they can.
The Todmorden Food Festival in September will see Ian and Cash return to the streets of the town. They’ll be there to demonstrate what can be achieved indoors over the winter months and that the growing season never ends.
