Larger quantities of our homegrown veg at reduced prices, as well as some fruit and herbs that are nice to juice.
We have come to the end of our Ashmeads Kernel apples, so we are now soucing a variety of UK grown, organic apples.
Fresh beetroot. Grate raw into a salad or boil in their skins and slice onto a sandwich - you will never eat anything else.
Our carrots are freshly dug from the soil and are renowned for their wonderful flavour. When they arrive, store them in a cool place (in a bag) or in your fridge. Do not wash until you are ready to eat them; the soil helps retain flavour and nutrients and improves storage.
Celery grown in Spain.
Cucumbers from France or Spain.
Fresh ginger, approximately 100g.
Great value beetroot.
Larger beets selected for juicing (or eating). Just as fresh, juicy and tasty as the smaller ones. Expect a few blemishes that have no effect on eating quality or storage.
Our main crop carrots: larger ones selected for juicing, just as delicious as the smaller carrots. Expect a few blemishes that will not effect eating quality or storage.
When they arrive, store them in a bag, in a cool place. Do not wash until you are ready to eat them; the soil helps retain flavour and nutrients and improves storage.
A bag of Cavolo Nero or Black kale. Favoured by chefs - just tear the leaf from the stalk and sweat/steam in a deep pan (lid on) in a splash of water - really delicious!
Kiwi fruit sourced from Europe.
Lemons from Spain or Italy.
Lemons can be green in the winter but don't worry, they are still juicy, ripe and ready to use. Interesting fact: lemons need a 14 degrees C temperature difference between day and night to turn yellow.
Oranges from Italy or Spain.
Perpetual spinach is a leaf beet which is the same family that chard and beetroot belong to. It tastes lovely and can be used in place of true spinach in any recipe as long as it is cooked.
Our home grown tomatoes are available from July until November. For those of you who like to see a tomato or two in their kitchen for the rest of the year, we source either vine tomatoes or standard salad tomatoes from other growers in the UK. When there are no organic tomatoes left in the country, we source them from France, Italy or Spain.
Fresh turmeric is incredibly good for you apparently and is easy to use in place of dry turmeric - just grate with a zester or chop finely.
