What’s in these large barrel buckets? SALADS!

A very busy week of orders (thank you all!) and many bags of salad to fill today.

As you can see, we hand harvest and hand mix our salads, straight from the market garden every Wednesday and with a wonderful mix of herbs and leaves. Usually over 10 different leaves in fact, balanced to create crunch, flavour and every mouthful interesting. super fresh and unlike anything you’ll find in the supermarket.

Agretti or Monks Beard - call it what you will - it’s incredibly hard to germinate but SO tasty it’s worth the effort. George has been growing it for the past 7 years or so and we’re delighted to have another bumper crop this summer.

Tender little leaves, rather like a less salty samphire, Agretti is an unusual but hugely versatile and useable crop. Add it to spaghetti with lots of garlic (it twirls nicely round the fork), sauté as a side with lemon, add to a tortilla or quiche or stir fry with chilli.

Order it with your veg box this week and find bags in the farmshop.

A race against the clock ⏰

With heavy rain forecast tonight, George was keen to get the main crop carrots in the ground AND w**d the ones already planted that have just poked their heads above soil.

So just before lunch, he and Alex headed out to simultaneously w**d and sow the same field before the rain came. They made it in time.

For those interested, the carrot variety this year is Autumn King - a favourite on the farm, very tasty and reliable. Look forward to these in a few months time.

The first of the Broad Beans

A TRUE sign that summer is here (along with the heat!) is the first pick of the broad beans. George always plants numerous successions of these delicious veg and we will be enjoying them for a good few weeks now.

Picked and podded fresh, the flavour is sweet and nutty and delicious. They are worth the effort to cook and please do enjoy them as soon as they arrive at your door - practically still warm from the field.

And let the watering commence… 💦

With so many seedlings and plants waiting to go in the ground at this time of year, we really have to be on top of the watering in these temperatures. The tunnels are on a sprinkler system, although they are usually not watered every day. Out in the fields, the veg are rather left to their own devices unless it’s very hot and dry and there are new plants in the ground, in which case we will manually run a drip tape along the rows to help bed them in.

Without our own water source and irrigation system on the farm, we have to VERY carefully conserve and ration what we use.

As of this year, we DO now have three large water capture tanks which we are hoping will make all the difference, more on this soon.
