We always get very inventive at this time of year. We need to find ways to bridge the hungry gap as we wait for this season’s newly-planted crops to mature.

The new-season UK asparagus in our vegetable boxes comes via Organic North, the wonderful cooperative wholesalers in Manchester. It was grown on Bedlam Farms in the Fens. We also have some enormous celeriac roots from Chapel Organics at North Berwick in Scotland.

Just a little further afield than usual!

In all this week’s veg boxes:-
*spring cabbage
*asparagus (Organic North)
*celeriac (Organic North)
leeks (Trerair Farm, St Eval)
cauliflower (Gluvian Growers, St Columb)
potatoes ‘Manitou’ (Trerair)

Standard boxes also have:
*seasonal salad leaf mix
*spring onions / chives
*sprouted fenugreek seeds

* = grown to organic principles.  Please wash all veg thoroughly  
Produce grown by Camel CSA, unless indicated otherwise
