the new pricelists for the deliveries to be made in the week commencing 11th December are now updated to our website.... orders back to us by 6pm Friday 8th December please... we're changing our supplier for the spuds for this coming week... we've had a few complaints about wireworm in them so after chatting to the growers we've decided to switch to the cara from thompsons farming at raywell near cottingham… we can't source these as regularly as we used to since we relocated to rise so its a welcome, albeit brief return... after this coming week we'll switch again to the desiree reds from organic pantry in tadcaster... hopefully you've all received a letter re our xmas and new year arrangements, the excitement is building!... but the gist of our arrangements over the next few weeks are as follows....

Our final deliveries before Xmas will be made in the week commencing 18th December. Most deliveries in that week will be on the normal day but an hour or two later than usual. Some deliveries will be a day later than normal. You might have received a letter in your box telling you whether your delivery day will be affected but if you haven’t got a letter, you’re welcome to contact us for more information.

Our website will be updated with the price lists on Thursday 14th December and we’ll try to make sure the standard boxes contain the veggies you’d hope to have for a wonderful organic Xmas dinner.... Please place your orders by the 6pm deadline on Friday 15th December. If you have a standing order, you don’t need to contact us but you are welcome to make additions to your order for the week commencing 18th December.

We will be closing for a slightly longer period this time round; as such there won’t be any deliveries in the weeks commencing 25th December, 1st January or 8th January...we’ll be back functioning again for w/c 15th January so the first order deadline of 2018 will be 6pm Friday 12th January.

the new pricelists for the deliveries to be made in the week commencing 27th November are now updated to our website.... orders back to us by 6pm Friday 24th November please... we're going to start using our own leeks in the standard veg boxes for the next few weeks, they might be a little on the small size but we'll be leaving the green tops on so that you can use them for stock or fry them til crisp for use in quiches or stir fry's etc.... we've also got purple sprouting broccoli coming in from organic pantry in tadcaster, a little pricey but hopefully they'll come down in price and will be available through til spring.... elsewhere it's sad to see the end of the local salad packs, mixed lettuce and sorrel from green growers at nafferton... http://www.arthursorganics.com/order_online_organic_vegetables_fruit_hull.html ...

the new pricelists for the deliveries to be made in the week commencing 20th November are now updated to our website.... orders back to us by 6pm Friday 17th November please... russian kale for the veg boxes this coming week, first time for ages it seems…. a nice two-tone kale with a slightly sweeter taste in my opinion…. we'll also run again with the white beetroot and probably use up the last of our squash…. growth in the walled garden is slowing down as the days continue to shorten - although I was hoping we'd have seen some growth above ground from the garlic by now....the broad beans in the polytunnel are gently raising their heads - but a few have had a nibble from an opportunistic mouse it seems.... http://www.arthursorganics.com/order_online_organic_vegetables_fruit_hull.html ...
