Yacon Tubers ?7 + Free Jerusalem artichokes


Recommended Posts

Tubers just starting to shoot. Organically grown, producing many sweet crunchy tubers which look like sweet potatoes. Also the large leaves are edible and excellent for using instead of vine leaves.


Worth reading the comprehensive Wikipedia page.


These are low calorie as they do not contain digestible sugars. They are great raw in salads or cooked. They retain their crunchiness when cooked, rather like water chestnuts.


They grow about 150cm and need room in the soil to produce their tubers. Small orange daisy like flowers.


Great for allotments.


Free organic Jerusalem Artichokes to buyers for growing or eating

    • Criminals prefer well lit streets too.  I expect that Southwark has turned up the brightness of the street lights which has increased crime.   early research suggests no increase in crime, possibly a decrease but Covid makes analysis more complex   https://findingspress.org/article/19414-the-impact-of-introducing-a-low-traffic-neighbourhood-on-street-crime-in-waltham-forest-london
    • Male acting very suspiciously on Court Lane and adjacent roads (Calton Avenue, Gilkes Crescent, Woodwarde Road etc…) There’s been a very significant increase in crime on these roads and adjacent roads due to the Southwark Council LTN, even more so with the recent works that are ongoing Residents and their property are being deliberately and negligently put at risk by Southwark Council’s actions and criminals are deliberately targeting this area and exploiting it given significantly reduced flow of people, much quieter, poor lighting, easy getaway and no access for the police The closure of the junction at Court Lane, Dulwich Village and Calton Avenue is a boon to thieves and criminals making the adjacent streets much less safe. The workmen have put in place wrought iron bollards in the middle of the road on Court Lane and Calton Avenue which stops police and other emergency services from accessing from Dulwich Village This materially increases the risks to residents and crime has gone up materially as a result The workmen say that they are under strict instructions from Southwark Council to put the wrought iron bollards in the middle of the road and that there’s nothing that they can do it alao stops ambulances and fire engines from getting through
