J Bakers
Restaurant in York, North Yorkshire
This time of year isn't great for local Seasonal produce. To grow anything as you know is so weather dependent, and we all know what the weather has been like, farming must be so difficult in these conditions. However there is a ray of light (or darkness) that comes from a handful of dark sheds in Yorkshire known as the 'Rhubarb Triangle' the triangle being - Rothwell, Morley and Wakefield. These sheds are famously candlelight and are growing forced rhubarb with thrives in the dark and loves soot and ash soil of this area. Apparently you can hear the rhubarb creaking as it grow!
