Veg Box Newsletter w/c 6.11.17

Afternoon Folks,

There’s still plenty of time to enter the Munch of the Month competition, to be in with a chance of winning a hamper of delights from our shop, all you have to do is share a photo of a meal you’ve made with your veg box, and use the tags #locavoremm and #locavorevegbox.

Invest in us! We’ve recently been granted planning permission for our Social Supermarket on Victoria Road, and are still taking loanstock offers. Check out our Big Plan and register your interest here.

As it’s the second week of the month, we’re delivering cheese boxes. There are three sizes to choose from – small £20, standard £37.50 and large £55. If you’d like more information or to add one to your order, drop us an email.

Our kale production has slowed right down, so this will be the last week of it in the veg boxes for a short while. On the other hand, our winter salad crops are brightening up our polytunnel at Left Field Market Garden, and will be ready for harvesting soon.
