    I think one "Recipe" sub-forum which might be beneficial - probably obligatory on a gardening forum :heehee: - would be something like "From the Garden"? "Home Produce Recipes"? "Seasonal Harvest"? or some such.
    I recall a while back that @Jack McHammocklashing remarked that he wanted recipes specifically based on his allotment harvest and then (I think it was) @ARMANDII recommended a recipe book aimed at just that? :dunno:
    I know last Autumn I asked for ideas on how to use up my glut of tomatoes and members were very helpful in making suggestions.
    Just an idea :redface:

                  Morning @Logan

                  On the main forums page, scroll down to the Members Hobbies area, and you will see Recipes in blue (it is not very large, I'm afraid - see picture below - and that will take you into the recipes forum. Alternatively, click on this link - Recipes

                    Thank you @Fat Controller i will do that.
                    I thought that they were called threads, that's what confused me.

                      Ah, no the threads are the conversations themselves within the sub-forums.

                      It sometimes makes it easier to think of things in a totally different way - maybe the easiest way to think of it is like a big building - you have the front door (the homepage), the main hallway with a lot of doors going off it (the forums list), then behind each of those doors is a waiting room (sub-forum) where you choose which room you want (thread)

                      Don't ever be stuck though, we are all here to help each other :dbgrtmb:
