I'm looking for the help of a giant marrow grower based in Somerset (or there abouts!) UK. Are there any out there?

Thanks

Mark and Frank Baggs are two of the best marrow growers in the world and they live in Dorset. "Dorset Farmers" on this site.

Oh dear, I'm not sure they can help. I'm actually trying to get hold of a massive marrow for a television programme, annoyingly early this year when I know they're out of season. You don't know anyone who grows marrows in the spring do you? Thanks so much for your help

The first marrows will be ready in August. They take about 4 months to grow from seed to marrow and need summer temperatures to grow.
We get a lot of requests for large pumpkins and vegetables in off season from TV producers. They really don't grow in the winter here...lol
