Guest guest Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 That's it Wee! Come Spring, we will be sending you dormant Ostrich Ferns. You will plant them and the next year corner the market in Fiddlehead sales in GB. You will start a food trend unmatched in history!!

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 Wee Ask your friends about " ferns " . Fiddleheads just refer to the shape of the stem in early stages of growth, when they are curled and is not a technical term. How about the " Lake District " ? Aren't there a lot of lakes and swamps there?
