I realised something on Friday. I think we are the only place in Northern Ireland that offers 100% local, 100% organic veg boxes all-year round.

We produce our veg boxes 50 weeks of the year - and it’s always organically-certified. It mainly grown by us here as Laurelbank Farm - or (in the hunger gap) we buy in some produce from other small-scale organic farms on the island of Ireland.

So, if you want to eat local, seasonal, sustainable food - with no horrible pesticides, herbicides or fungicides - then why not join us.

We have a few spaces available in our CSA (community supported agriculture scheme). Join us this September for a month trial and see what you think…

The picture is of last week’s full share. It’s a bountiful and delicious time…

I’ll stick a link in my bio to sign up. Sign up before 31st August for your first veg box on Wednesday 2nd September.

Meithal is a traditional Irish word for neighbours coming together to help out with big seasonal jobs…

I was very excited when I first learnt the word existed - it seemed to capture everything that our volunteer sessions aim to achieve - growing good food, working together, eating together and building community.

We have a couple of Meitheal mornings in the calendar for Fridays in August. And we’d love to see you here. Link in my bio to book.

And thank you for Heather at the County Down Community Development Network for sharing the lovely video they took at the farm earlier this year.

Happy Spring Equinox everyone.

The rhubarb is exploding out the ground, salad bags are back in the farm shop and what a fab couple of days of sunshine we’ve had to help us celebrate the turn of the seasons.

Big thank you to Ben at Treeple for the wood chip delivery. Perfect timing! Give them a shout if and when you need some tree surgery.

And of course a big thank you to Cat for growing a few thousand seedlings in the last few weeks…

What a glorious time of year!

Kale florets are here! Come to our wee self-service farm shop on Saturday for the best organic veg that February has to offer.

Kale florets are my favourite (eat them just like purple sprouting broccoli)

In other news, this week there has also been willow weaving (thank you Joanne, Alison and Amy) and hand-cut noodles (thank you Alan). And potato cakes with sorrel mayonnaise!
A good week.
