This week both boxes contain all the fresh ingredients to make our lovely lemon and herb, pearl couscous salad. So easy to make ahead, great for picnics, barbecues, packed lunches and perfect for the bank holiday weekend. If you haven’t tried pearl couscous before you are in for a treat, Israeli couscous—also called ptitim, giant couscous, and pearl couscous—is often thought of as a whole grain, but it’s actually a type of pasta. This easy dish tastes delicious and is a great side dish for fish or chicken.
Our lettuce this week is Little Gem, grown by LJ Betts Ltd a longstanding family business based near West Malling. Often described as ‘a combination of Butter/flat lettuce and Romaine’. They grow their little gem in greenhouses resulting in a sweeter, more delicate flavour and texture than the outdoor grown imports. Harvested by hand and trimmed to reveal their crisp, tender leaves, Little Gem Lettuce work well in mixed salads, and in sandwiches. Foodies love it for its ability to hold dressings and flavour within its nooks and crannies.
Don’t forget English Asparagus, such a short season, ours is the finest Norfolk asparagus grown by J W Allen & Sons.

Our very popular artisan bread will be available from Wednesday onwards. we will have white and seeded sourdough, white and wholemeal cob available every Wednesday and Thursday, Friday and Saturdays we will also have focaccia and French sticks, our bread can sell out very quickly to make sure you aren’t disappointed send us a message or phone the shop on 01457 852456 and we will make sure we save one for you. Bread always seems to be the first thing that people cut out of their diets when trying to cut down, but sourdough not only delivers a tangy flavour that’s perfect for toast and sandwiches, it is good for you, too! The fermentation process for sourdough bread can lead to an increased number of prebiotic and probiotic-like properties, which help improve gut health. It freezes exceptionally well so you won’t be tempted to eat the whole loaf.
