What’s in season – February 2021
Right now we’re coming to the end of most of our veg production at Tohurst Organic, in anticipation of the Hungry Gap which spans from roughly March to May/June. This is the quiet period of UK farming, when not much is harvested, giving us time to sow and plant for the coming year.
We buy in a lot of produce for the Box Scheme and for Lin’s VegShed from our organic wholesale supplier during these months. However we still have a few veg left in the field including parsnips, black radish, kalettes, Cavolo Nero kale, squash and our winter salad mix grown in the polytunnels.
Box Scheme customers are encouraged to watch our website for any Extras from the farm, that appear every week or so.
Tolhurst Organic, Samantha Kroes
Hello. l just want to know when I can buy salad vegetables from Tolhurst. I’ve previously bought winter vegetables and have been impressed by the produce. But I rarely cook and eat salads all year round. Thanks for your advice. Clare
