small - Unusual commissions a speciality.   Press Release, Friday, October 11, 2002, KNOW YOUR
ONIONS A handful of wooden onions from Pontypool are causing keen gardeners across Wales to go into battle. The coveted creations, handmade from Welsh cherry wood by Joan and Clive Jones' family-run Woodland Turnery in New Inn, Pontypool, are the prizes for BBC Radio Wales' gardening quiz Know Your Onions (Saturday, October 19) which returns for a new series this week. "We love the challenge
of unusual commissions, but it was quite a surprise to receive a phone
call from BBC Radio Wales asking 'Can you turn wooden onions - we're looking
for 36!'" says Joan Jones. Presented by horticulturalist, lecturer and broadcaster Sheena Crossley, the weekly quiz kicks off its new season with two teams from the south west - The Hybrids from Burry Port who go head-to-head with The Green Onions from Llanelli. Broadcast from Pontardulais Comprehensive School, The Hybrids (Marty Atkin, Kath Leach and Lynda Morse) will have to dig deep into their gardening knowledge, and weed out the right answers in order to beat The Green Onions (Colin Henshaw, Ralph Davies and Wyn Beynon) to the prize. This year's 12-part Know Your Onions series will also feature a festive Christmas special Jubilee Edition, with questions themed on plants with royal connections to mark the Queen's Golden Jubilee Year.
