    Quest Lettuce

    Today marked a momentous occasion in the Quest office...after weeks of careful planting, re-planting and watering Andy's efforts to create a makeshift vegetable haven in the back garden have finally paid off. In his absence (sorry!) we enjoyed the first taste of Quest lettuce, hopefully soon to be followed by Quest courgettes, Quest tomatoes, more Quest lettuce, Quest aubergines and Quest chili peppers...watch this space!


    Not quite what the Quest Overseas greenhouse looks like...


    The verdict...tasty, in a lettucy kind of way.
