Every bag of our salad is lovingly hand picked fresh on delivery day, blended from 100s of different seasonal herbs, lettuces and edible flowers with a focus to create the ideal blend.🥬🌼

Now with the sun bringing us a little more light and warmth each day, these beauties are really about to come into their own.

A true labor of love, and we wouldn't have it any other way! 🌸🌱🌺

🌱PEA PLANTING 🌱 The first of our pea crops

🌱PEA PLANTING 🌱

The first of our pea crops are going in the ground today and it truly feels like a turning point in the seasons. These beautiful fresh little shoots are going into some of our garden beds initially, and then more are headed out to our field scale plot in a few weeks time.
We like to plant our peas in these long sections of guttering to help in the transplanting process. Simply sliding out a section of peas into their bed with ease!
Let us know whats going on in your gardens this week!

🌼VOLUNTEER DAY🌼

Last Saturday marked the first of our (almost) monthly volunteer days of the year!
It was so refreshing to have new faces join us up on the hill after such long period of quiet.
🎉
The weather really came out to support us and was beautifully sunny (if fresh!) all day.
☀️
We do all sorts with our volunteers including, tree planting, hedge laying, willow weaving and garden maintenance!

On days as warm and beautiful as this, pond dipping is a must! 🐸
.
Yesterday we were (very carefully!) clearing our pond of duck weed, grass, and other suffocating weeds, to allow for more oxygen movement in the water and give our fabulous amphibious friends some wiggle room!
We have so many frogs in our top pond this spring that they could use all the space they can get.

After a long weekend of wind and rain and weather

After a long weekend of wind and rain and weather warnings, it seems the sky has blessed up with a still breeze, a warm sun and birds song! 🕊️
Today, we are spending our first break and lunch time outside this year and oh so grateful for it! Warmer days are on their way. 🌸🌻🌼

We are so excited to announce that we are partnering with the incredible @quernstonebakery to supply our wonderful veg bag customers with the highest quality and most delicious bread!
🍞
Available now to add to your weekly delivery from us, get in touch to place your order or for more information!
🍞
"We believe that bread is a staple that has too long been overtaken by big manufacturers that consider flour a commodity. We love bread and think it should be made with care and craftsmanship. Our loaves are made using the finest organic UK grains, which are stone milled to achieve a more nutritious and creamy flavour. To highlight the grains inherent beauty, we use natural leaven, often called sourdough.
We are so excited to be partnering with our friends from The Husbandry School, a project that shares both our values and philosophies. We also hope to source some of our grain from the fields in the not too distant future." - Egoitz at @quernstonebakery
