We’ve switched to an electric van for our weekly vegetable box deliveries. It means we’re cutting the cost of food miles as well as CO2 emissions.
Camel CSA veg grower Mark Norman said: “It’s so clean. It doesn’t use any juice so it’s not chucking out exhaust emissions.
“It’s really convenient for deliveries when you’re stopping and starting all the time. You just press the button and go.”

We’ve made 100 jars this year. We like to minimise waste and make the most of seasonal vegetable gluts.

It’s our fifth anniversary! We’re open 2-4pm this Sunday. Find us at St Kew Highway, near Wadebridge.
Come and take part in family fun and games, making bee nests and bird scarers, nature quizzes, supervised pond dipping, and guided tours of our two-acre veg plot and polytunnels. There’ll be hot and cold drinks, home-made cake, and the chance to win one of our fresh, seasonal, local veg boxes.

We’ve had a fun visit from Class 1 at St Mabyn School. The children named the vegetables and soft fruit in the field and spotted lots of minibugs. They also searched for worms, slugs and snails (plenty of those!) They all tasted peas from the polytunnel and planted a red onion to carry on growing at home.
