Morning! A reminder that the farmers market is on this morning from 9am-12 midday, hosted by Thevalegrocer veg shop.
It's definitely not quite the weather we'd have hoped for at our June market - think we had more sun at some of our winter ones! - but we'll all be there and we'd love the support. No such thing as bad weather - just the wrong clothes😉so throw on a coat and come down to get a great start to your weekend!! Eiry will be busy making her lovely coffees which helps!
Some of the things that have been popular this week at The Vale Grocer shop:
~ UK carrots with lovely green tops - these are the best tasting carrots you're going to find so don't miss out!
~ UK new potatoes
~ stone fruit from Spain - nectarines, peaches, flat peaches, apricots
~ tomatoes from the Isle of Wight
~ fresh produce from the field in Prion - broad beans, lettuces and salad, radishes, peas (these are limited!)
~ ....as well as lots of other organic veg, fruit, pantry and dairy to keep you going! Don't miss our new tinned fish in from Fish4ever - tuna, sardines, mackerel, a great thing to have in the cupboard.
~ We have lots of organic butter in this week - this freezes well and we don't always have as much stock as currently do so it's worth buying a couple and putting in freezer so you don't miss out another time

If you haven't been before - you need to come to the Vale Grocer shop - 9 Vale Park, Colomendy Indus Est, Denbigh, LL16 5TA shortly.
Parking can be a bit hit and miss, but there are plenty of side roads to park around the Colomendy Estate and it's not too far to walk. If you need to be closer you may have to be dropped off. Walking or biking always a good option! If you are driving, we would just ask that you park sensibly (we do have an ambulance depot behind our unit so the roads need to be kept passable at all times).
See you there! 🥳 Next one not until July 4th!
