Grown a field away by H.R. & E.A. James at Clareston Hall Farm, Freystrop. Floury, earthy, and unbeatable roasted.

Half a sack of Clareston Hall Farm potatoes, lifted locally and bagged in paper. Store somewhere cool and dark.

Firm, papery brown onions from a local grower, sold loose from the basket by the door. The base of every stew, gravy and ragu we make.

Lifted from the field this week and still carrying the soil. Waxy, sweet, and best simply boiled with butter and mint.

Loose local veg from the baskets by the stairs — cauliflower £1.30, savoy cabbage £1.10, sweetheart cabbage £1.30, leeks £3.99/kg, swede £2, red & white onions £1.52/kg, parsnips £3.19/kg, carrots £1.28/kg, baking potatoes 70p each and 2.5kg bags of potatoes £2.

Locally grown pumpkins stacked by the shop door through October — deep orange carvers and pale-skinned cooking varieties. Priced by size, from £3 for the small ones up to £8 for the giants.
