christmas hamper close date
Thank you to all our veg box customers who have signed up to pay by standing order. It makes our planning easier to know that we have confirmed regular orders. We will make sure that there are tasty goodies in your hampers at year’s end!
We have taken on our maximum number of new standing order customers for this season, so it will be Spring 2011 before we will be able to sign up new customers for this offer. We need some time to plan next year’s crops, quantities and new projects.
In the meantime, if you would like to order a veg box please contact Elaine (087 6187908) – we can still offer weekly boxes and casual orders, depending on week to week availability of produce.

Autumn opening/new box options
Autumn news 2010
at
Good & Green
The summer has passed us by in a blur of hoeing and sowing (and not enough weeding!)… Our new tunnel has transformed the garden and is going strong, with weekly crops of tomatoes, cucumbers, french beans etc. Sweetcorn and chillis are on the way in Autumn. Outdoors there are now a choice of cabbage (red, savoy or round), kale, leeks, celeriac, celery, beetroot, red and white onions and some new peas, and of course pumpkins will be ready for Halloween. Our new hens have settled in well and there is a steady supply of eggs, so, all in all we are delighted with the produce this year and with the steady growth in visitors calling in to us every weekend.
We very much appreciate the effort our customers have made to make time to call for produce and hope that you have enjoyed watching the crops grow and come to harvest since Spring. It is great to be able to share the excitement of following the progress of the garden and to show our customers how and where each crop grows.
We have loads of work to do for the autumn and winter and lots of ideas that we would like to try for next season to meet requests made by our customers. At the moment we are sowing winter salads, rocket and greens (spinach, orientals etc) and will get these crops into the tunnel by end of September to have fresh greens and herbs throughout the cold months.
There are some new options and opening times for the Autumn and Winter as follows:
We are restarting our free delivery service within 5 miles of the smallholding on orders of 20 euro or over. Delivery will be on Friday afternoon and evening between 4 and 7pm.
To order a veg box there are a few options:
a. Send a tailor made order from the list of produce posted on the website every Wed night – email or text to me by Thursday evening for delivery on Friday or collection from the farm as you prefer. No minimum for orders collected from us. 20 euro minimum for free delivery.
b. Growers choice – this has been a popular option where we select the contents of the box from our available produce to an agreed total (min 15 euro for collection or min 20 euro for free delivery). We vary this from week to week, but always include a mix of root veg, leaves, herbs and fruit. You can specify items that you like a lot or don’t use/need. In addition we add 15% free extra produce (eg. 23 euro in a 20 euro box).
c. Regular standing order – We are offering a special deal to customers who know that they like and use our produce regularly and are willing to commit to a fixed amount standing order payment to our bank account. In this case we will add 15% extra produce as usual, free delivery to your house. In addition we will give you a free hamper at Christmas (including seasonal treats, bread, home reared pork/bacon and apple juice) as a thank you for your commitment through the year. With this type of box order you can use any credits built up if you are away to get extra produce at other times (eg for plants, extra veg).
If you are interested in getting a regular veg box – either delivered or for collection from us please complete the attached form and return to Elaine. Delivery from Friday 3rd Sept. Occasional orders also welcome for delivery, although priority will go to weekly customers for any limited produce.
Our opening hours for drop in customers will change from Sept 3rd:
* We will open for drop in customers on Fridays 12 – 5pm as usual.
* On Saturdays we will harvest for any preorders only. If you would like to order produce on Saturday please email/text or ring with the details 24 hours ahead.
Many thanks again to our customers who have supported our work. We look forward to growing again for you in the coming season.
Kind regards,
Elaine, John, Cathal, Oisin, Ryan and Fionn
