1 Avocado
Fresh beetroot. Grate raw into a salad or boil in their skins and slice onto a sandwich - you will never eat anything else.
We plant broccoli (officially called Calabrese) in succession so that we can provide our customers with homegrown broccoli for as much of the season as possible. During the winter months and the 'hungry gap' our broccoli comes from organic growers in France or Spain.
1 medium sized red cabbage
The lovely and popular Savoy cabbage.
1 crisp and hearty white cabbage. Great for coleslaw and homemade sauerkraut.
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.
If you eat the florets raw, they are crunchy, sweet and a little spicy - great dipped in humous.
One of my favourite vegetables. Combine into potato dauphinoise and you'll see what I mean.
Approximately 700g.
Celery grown by fellow organic growers in the U.K.
Tasty and colourful Rainbow Chard.
Our hot and spicy chilli peppers!
Our courgettes season is over. Courgettes are now coming from fellow organic growers in France or Spain.
Vallelado garlic originates from the cooler northern region of Spain. It has large cloves which are especially delicious when chopped and sprinkled over our Pink Brandy Wine tomatoes.
Fresh ginger, approximately 100g.
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!
A bag of traditional curly kale. Great for making kale crisps - just rub in a little olive oil or coconut oil and salt and gently bake in the oven.
Our leeks have a reassuring crunch when you cut them and are bursting with flavour.
Our ever popular bag of mixed salad leaves: lettuce, purslane, land cress, rocket and Chinese winter leaves such as Tat Soi, Pak Choi, Mizuna, Mibuna, Red Frills and Golden Frills.
Now packed in 100% home compostable bags - NO PLASTIC!
Chestnut mushrooms
Our new crop of red onions are ready for harvest.
Our onions are maturing in the field. In August, they have fresh green leaves adding extra nutrition to your meals.
Unwashed parsnips, freshly lifted from the soil.
A fine, red skinned, main crop potato. White floury flesh and wonderful masher. Also good for roasting and baking.
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.
A lovely sweet early squash which ripens to a golden yellow.
Aproximately 600g.
A large pale blue squash with a pink tinge when fully ripe. Delicious dark orange flesh with a lovely sweet and nutty flavour. This squash will keep (uncut) for months while it adorns your window sill. Beats butternut any day of the week but don't take my word for it! Try one.
Sweet potato grown in Spain.
Sweet and juicy cherry tomatoes. Our season is nearly over so we are supplementing with organic cherry tomatoes from Spain.
Our homegrown 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.
Benefit from extra fibre and nutrients by eating the skins of your root veg.
This sustainably produced hedgehog brush, made from coconut fibre, is ideal for scrubbing the soil off your root veg.
Look after your brush and it should last for years - just shake off excess water and hang it up to dry between uses.
