I am back! 💚
I had 2 weeks off spending time with my family at a wedding in France and making memories.

Lovely to be delivering in the sunshine today. The website is open for next week's orders if you have been considering joining the veg box service. Andrea 🥕

That's a wrap! I am off for 2 weeks!

I am going on holiday to recharge and rest although there is an abroad wedding thrown in I am very excited.

If you place an order in the next two weeks this will be delivered from 24th August onwards.

I will be taking a digital detox, although an odd picture of organic farms makes it onto stories here and there. Andrea 🥕x

I don't shout out enough about organic carrots. This is usually what a new customer notices when they order their 1st veg box. "The carrots tasted like carrots."

This week's carrots are from James Foskett Farms they are beautiful orange, red, yellow and purple.

I love carrots in everything pasta, stir-fry, dunked in homous they are rarely subbed out the box for something else. The summer carrots come with leafy tops that make the best pesto. 🥕

I can't quite believe it's been 2 years since I moved out of the tiny pumphouse in nature to a more grown up unit at number 17 Belmont Works I had to pinch myself this week.

The move has enabled me to host lovely workshops with amazing small businesses, stock more organic pantry items, a bigger fridge, less manual lifting and so much more.

I get asked a lot if I run a shop and can you visit? Unfortunately I only order what I need for customer subscriptions to avoid food waste and to be honest as I am one woman band and delivering takes up most of my day!

It is sometimes nice to look back on how far you have come and in November I will have been trading for 6 years!

UK Green beans are in season and are in the veg boxes this week.
I love this simple new potato, green beans and olive dish. Courtesy of

You will need
🔸500g new potato
🔸200g green beans
🔸2 garlic cloves sliced
🔸50g stoned Black olives chopped (I used green olive because that's what I had in!)
🔸Handful of basil
🔸Squeeze of lemon
🔸Salt and pepper

To make it
1. Cut the potatoes into 2-3 chunks and add to a pan. Cover with water and season. Bring to a boil and then simmer for approx 8 minutes. Add the beans to the pan for the last 2-3 minutes of the cooking time and drain.

2. Meanwhile heat oil on a pan and add the sliced garlic don't let it colour. Stir in the olives for a minute more and then add to the potatoes and beans.

3. Add a squeeze of lemon juice, a handful of basil and salt and pepper. Serve warm.

Enjoy! Andrea

Free pesto alert with the carrots!

Carrots are back! 🥕 Organic carrots locally grown taste like a carrot! But did you know you can make a simple pesto using the leafy tops?

Make sure you wash and remove any dirt from your carrot tops and add the following to a food processor.

🥕 A bunch of Carrot tops (and stalks)
🥕 50G of sunflower seeds (you can also use cashew nuts, pine nuts or pumpkin seeds, whatever you have in the cupboard)
🥕 1 garlic clove crushed
🥕 3 TBSP olive oil
🥕 1 organic lemon juiced
🥕 Pinch of salt

Blitz in a food processor and tweak, salt, lemon and garlic to taste. I will be stirring pesto through my pasta tonight. As it makes more than I need, I freeze it in ice cube trays and chuck it in mid week meals.

Enjoy!

Tomato appreciation post!
These have to be the best tasting tomatoes ever. My customers report back addictions to poping them like sweets!

They get used in everything although my favourites are tomato toast and pasta. Summer puff pastry pies are also delicious 😋

They will now be back until the autumn.
