Every vegetable deserves a second chance... πŸ˜„ or not πŸ™…β€β™€οΈ

What vegetable did you dislike as a child but love now?

Mine was celeriac.
I couldn't stand it as a kid.
Now I like it roasted, mashed with potatoes, and I can't imagine a soup or a stew without it.
And yesterday a lovely customer brought me some coleslaw with celeriac - it was delicious πŸ˜‹

Nourishment Notes 🌿
πŸ† Aubergine

Fun fact: although we use aubergine as a vegetable, it's actually a berry 😊

A staple in cuisines around the world, aubergine is not only delicious but also offers some impressive health benefits

πŸ’œ Its deep purple skin contains nasunin, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect your cells from everyday damage
❀️ Contains compounds that support cardiovascular and heart health
🌿 A source of fibre, helping to support digestion and gut health
✨ A low glycaemic index (GI) food, meaning it provides a slower, steadier release of energy, it causes a slower, steadier rise in blood sugar.

Soft, creamy, and full of flavour, aubergine has been enjoyed across the Mediterranean, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe for generations 😊

I'll share one of my favourite ways to enjoy it in the comments ⬇️

What's your favourite aubergine dish? πŸ†πŸ˜Š
With love and gratitude,

Not a bad way to start the week.
Thank you for lovely article and thank you all for the lovely comments ❀️

A new chapter is under way at Brampton Farm Shop, with Irina Boros four months into running the much-loved community retailer following Linda Cooke's retirement 🌾

Irina, a former chef whose experience includes Gilpin Hotel and Farlam Hall during its Michelin Star era, is using her culinary background to introduce new produce, from custard apples and golden kiwis to herbal teas from Ivegill's herb farm.

She has also forged local partnerships with Warwick Mill, Christine's Kitchen – supplying jams, marmalades and chutneys – and two suppliers in Longtown and Carlisle, with Irina visiting the market once or twice a week to source fresh stock.

Irina, who lives in Brampton with her fiancΓ©, said she welcomes customer suggestions as the best way to shape what the shop stocks. "Everyone has been lovely," she said.

Forget politics. Forget football...
Let's discuss something that really matters... πŸ˜…
πŸ₯” The Great Potato Debate... πŸ₯”

Which potato would make it onto your plate? πŸ‘‡

1 Jersey Royals Sharp, nutty, waxy, and intensely earthy.

2 Cornish Potatoes Delicately sweet, milky, and buttery with a subtle mineral undertone.

3 Lancashire Potatoes Deeply earthy, intensely rustic, and packed with traditional potato flavour.

Whether you're roasting, mashing, boiling, or simply serving them with a k**b of butter, everyone seems to have a favourite.

So which one gets your vote?

See you all in the shop

The Story of a Broken Fridge & A Whole Lot of Community Spirit πŸ₯ΉπŸ‘‡

​For a long time, there was a giant, non-functioning fridge sitting in the shop. It didn't work, it took up massive amounts of space, and as a solo shop owner, moving it felt like an impossible mountain to climb.
Today, I finally decided it was time for a change, but I knew I couldn't do it alone.
​That is when the magic of community took over. ✨
​First came Elian Temon Farm Milk Barn who arrived like a hero to haul that massive, heavy old fridge away.
​Then, the wonderful Top-Shelf Handyman showed up right on time, bringing a beautiful new wooden display and jumping straight in to help me assemble the new blue shelving unit.
​After the broken fridge was gone, there was still plenty of heavy lifting to do. Ian Half Moon Wholefoods and a kind gentleman who just happened to be in the shop stepped up right when I needed to push the fridge/ counter into its new position.
It was way to heavy for me to move it, but thanks to their pure muscle power and strength, it was pushed into place smoothly

πŸ™Œ

​To say I appreciate every single one of you is an understatement. Words truly aren't enough.

​Amidst all this chaos, lifting, and dust, my lovely customers were still coming in to do their shopping.
Thank you all so much for navigating around us with so much patience, smiles, and understanding. I truly, deeply hope you love the new layout when you walk in next! πŸ₯°

​Now, after an incredibly long, exhausting, but beautiful day of hard work, I am finally sitting down.
The shop has a fresh new look, and I am unwinding with a well-deserved, cold bottle of sour cherry kombucha. πŸ’

​With love and gratitude

Nourishment Notes 🌿

​Look at the size of this beautiful mooli radish I’m holding today! 🀩
It might look a little intimidating at first glance, but it is secretly one of summer's most refreshing hidden gems ‡

​Mooli Radish
​● Exceptionally hydrating: boasting a very high water content, making it incredibly crisp and cooling on a warm sunny day.
● Gentle on the tummy: naturally contains plant enzymes that help aid digestion and keep your gut feeling light.
🌿 High in vitamin C: helping to support your immune system and overall vitality.
✨ Loaded with antioxidants: contains natural compounds that help protect cells and reduce everyday inflammation.
πŸ’› Low-calorie crunch: gives you that satisfying, juicy crunch in salads without feeling heavy or filling you with sluggish energy.

​If you’ve never tried it, it’s much milder and sweeter than a standard little red radish.

​How do you like to use mooli? Do you slice it, grate it, or have you never tried it before? Let me know 😊

​I’m sharing a beautiful, crisp summer salad recipe in the comments. β˜€οΈπŸ§‘β€πŸ³

​With love and gratitude
❀️ Irina
