    January

    The month of Veganuary, Burns Night and new beginnings will provide a range of tempting roots, cult citrus favourites and a sprinkle of Spring-like produce. The heavier frosts in December will pave the way to make full use of the flavour enhanced UK produce on offer.

    Spanish soft fruit will make a welcome, albeit gradual, appearance mid to late month. Salad product is tentatively recovering from the recent floods in Spain with product also beginning to arrive from Morocco & possibly Egypt.

    December

    The big question for December menu planning is, do you play a straight bat and go for the trusted roots and brassicas or search out a few quirky alternatives? 


    The month will bring a host of decent choices from the classics you would expect over the festive period to a few suggestions that may get the creative juices flowing.
