Shillingford Organics 'in tune with the seasons' We have organic hens on the farm, which produce wonderful, tasty, organic eggs.

Shillingford Organics is all about growing seasonal, organic vegetables, salad, herbs and fruit to give local people the opportunity to buy great, healthy, freshly harvested produce, which is free from harmful pesticides and chemicals. Our use of green manures and well-made compost coverings ensure we optimise soil biology. The range of vegetables vary according to the time of year so you can look forward to tasting the freshest new crops at the time when they are best, safe in the knowledge that they have not been flown in from thousands of miles away.

What teamwork! Our growers brought in the squash this week.
They've been left out in the field finishing their ripening through this autumnal sunshine. Now they've been brought in for storage before any frosty nights.
We'll be selling our squash throughout winter on our online shop and at the Farmers Markets.
Here you can see some of our most popular squash varieties:
Crown Prince
Uchiki kuri
Waltham Butternut

We plan to store the Crown Prince all the way through to April.

We're looking forward to winter warming squash soups and stew!

The last of our tomatoes - the green ones - are available for a special, end of season offer!

Green tomatoes are available on our online shop and at our weekly markets from this week.

As the season changes the last tomatoes on our trusses struggle to ripen. We need to clear out the tunnels to make room for our winter salad, so out come the green tomatoes.

They’re good for chutney, they’re good for fried green tomatoes and they’re good for us, with high levels of Vitamin A and C.
