Stakeboards are grown in allotments, gardens and bits of scrubland. Here are some Chesterfield’s harvest growing in the garden behind the office.

They’re not quite fully grown but will have to be harvested early and replanted into people’s gardens, where they will continue to grow.

Like all Lib Dem policies, the stakeboards are cut and dried.

Here are some stakeboards from our previous record breaking year in 2005. These signs were fertilised with high-manure content Labour leaflets, and consequently grew to record sizes.
