21st August 2014 – 4th September

It’s that time again. The Market Report is back and after a well-earned break for our head buyer it’s business as usual with plenty to tell you about.

Clockwise from top left: Figs, Plums,Marrow & Loose Corn on the Cob

Vegetables

Loose Corn on the Cob, perfect for a late summer BBQ, is readily available and currently great quality and value. Green, Orange and Purple Cauliflowers are all in full swing and can add a splash of colour to any meal.
Fresh Marrows are also plentiful and as well as being a good size they’re great value for money.
We have plenty of mushrooms for you to choose from, why not try one of the following.....

Girolle, Pied Bleu, Chanterelle, Trompette or Cepes.

One piece of bad news is that Frozen Mini Spring Rolls will be unavailable until the beginning of September. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Best Buys include: Carrots, Loose Corn onthe Cob, Savoy Cabbage, Spring Greens and Curly Kale.

Salads

Beautifully coloured Rainbow Chard and vibrant Yellow Beans would brighten up any salad and we have both in stock. The majority of our lettuces are grown here in the UK and if you’re after Tomatoes there are plenty to choose from including mixed Heritage, Tomberries and Green and Yellow on the vine.

Best Buys include: Extra small New Potatoes, Cos Lettuce, Baby Gems, Corn Salad, Watercress, Mixed Leaf Salad and Vine Cherry Tomatoes

Fruits

Loads of fruit news to tell you about this week, let’s start with apples.We’ve seen the first UK Windsor arrive in
the market and we’re expecting a bumper crop of Braeburns to follow soon. Discovery and Bramley are also available. Moving on, our Conference Pears are now a new crop from the UK while the Williams variety is Italian. Home grown Damsons and Greengages are in full swing and Cobnuts are readily available. The first EU Grapes, both black and white, are now in season and Flat Peaches and Flat Nectarines are still available. Deliciously sweet Figs are also in stock and proving popular. Sadly, I have to finish on some bad news. Lemons and Limes are in very short supply at the moment due to various factors. A lost Argentinian crop because of heavy rainfall
and a Turkish crop running behind schedule as well as being poor quality have taken their toll and as a result the price of both has been pushed up significantly. We don’t expect to see any improvement until the third week of September. Enjoy what’s left of the summer and we’ll be back in two weeks’ time.

Best Buys include:Blackberries, Blueberries, Figs, Watermelons, Plums, Raspberries and Strawberries.

We ask that all customers try to return as many boxes as they can as we are trying to strengthen our environmental policy and recycle as much as possible.
