It was very kind of the Icelanders on the fermentation course in Malvik the other week to bring me a gift from Iceland. What does an Icelander bring to a gardener in Norway? Volcanic ash fertiliser of course :) I’ve heard stories of increased yield where the ash fell after the last eruption…and what better plants to receive the ash than a small collection of Alliums (onions) which I was sent a few years ago by the Botanical Garden in Reykjavik :)
Thank you Arna “Løk for Strøk” Mathisen :)
