The hungry gap is starting to have an effect on our veg box contents. This week we’ve had to buy in Cornish cabbages and cauliflowers from wholesalers Total Produce in Bodmin. Fortunately the spring crops in our polytunnels are coming on well and more of our home-grown veg should be ready soon.

All boxes have: –
* spinach/chard (Camel CSA)
potatoes (Burlerrow Farm, St Mabyn)
onions (Restharrow Farm, Trebetherick)
leeks (Restharrow)
swede (Restharrow)
cauliflower (Total Produce, Bodmin)
savoy cabbage (Total Produce)

Standard boxes also have: –
extra potatoes
* mixed salad bag** (Camel CSA)
* radish bunch (Camel CSA)
* flat-leaved parsley (Camel CSA)

* = grown to organic principles
** = baby spinach/leaf beet, lettuce,  red mustard and golden mustard greens
