There was a lot of hype recently about

unusual shaped 'grow your own' veg

and being keen gardeners we know,

you know they taste just as good.

Wikipedia tells us that in some countries

these items feature regularly in competitions

www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unusually-shaped_vegetable

We could have asked you to send us pictures of beautiful vegetables grown using our great organic compost (we still might) but for now we thought it would be good to entertain us all with a lighter approach. So we want your unusual shaped 'grow your own'  veg or fruit photos to share with your fellow Green Gardeners. Of course we will send a prize to everyone we publish!

 

Email competitions@vitalearth.tv with your entry, with the subject header Unusually Shaped Vegetables. Please let us know if you would like to see your name and town shown with the picture in our gallery.
