Yesterday I spent the morning in Shirehampton, a few stops from Bristol Temple Meads station 🚉

Not in a 'passing through community vibes' kind of way, I was invited to take part in the making of the new high street market.

Walking the high street to shops worth visiting, having coffee and cake to Mark's , learn about card games with the new Luke's , seeing what’s moving, what feels good for their community. And something stood out.

When the market lost its home just after the 6th anniversary, it didn’t disappear. It quickly adapted.

A few steps down the road, the Methodist Church and Hub opened its doors. More space, indoor and outdoor, right in the middle of the high street.

But more than the location, people stepped in: organisers, volunteers, traders… everyone pulling in the same direction.

You can feel it. It’s not staged, it’s not 'marketed' It’s real. Shirehampton Action is behind the scene engine that is making this community move fast and unite.

If you’re around Bristol, the Market opening is worth the trip.

📍 Shirehampton Market
🗓 Thursday 2 April | 9am–2pm

Not just to buy, but to see what a local community is supposed to feel like.

Easy to get there by train Temple Meads station or bus from the city centre

I’ll be there too

🥕 ADV 😅

I am working a bit behind the scenes, helping bring more local food in. I will be hosting a stall where selected local food brands are displayed, tested and sold. Some local legends have been already successfully involved ♥️

If you want more info get in touch. Happy to source your fav brands to offer visibility to local makers.

🙌🏽 Come by, say hi, and support something that’s actually built by people who care.

Today we want to simplify your meal with a stunning offer from The Secret Garden.

Domenico, a local Italian chef and cheesemaker based in Dorset, and I made a tough selection for the Fair Grocer market and we've chosen:

🥕
Quiches
Focaccia pugliese (it's a traditional style, that fills your mouth with flavour!)
Mozzarella (knots)
Ricottina (small ricotta)
Cakes (small, 2 portions, perfect for couples or greedy sweet teeth)
🥕

You can order NOW, Link in the BIO ✨

With Free delivery in Bristol or Bath OR Collection from Bath Farmers market

We’re currently working on a weekly group lunch offer delivered across Bristol.

Ideal for a social office lunch break or simply to enjoy the feeling of artisan's food like St Nicks Market… without the walk 😅

Have you tried Tesco’s £1/kg oranges and found them tasteless or dry? Or even Tesco Finest? Their premium £2.40/Kg bag clearly lists post harvest chemical treatment and wax on the back. That’s not a natural fruit, it’s a compromise on health and fairness.

We get it: supermarkets are convenient. But at what cost to our health and farming communities?

🍊 Our blood oranges come from a small producer in Sicily’s Etna region—where rich soil, generous sun, and perfect weather give them natural sweetness and vibrant color. Grown with care, with no pesticides, post-harvest treatments, or wax, these are the original blood oranges, found only here.

We ensures consistency and full support for our producer while keeping prices fair and affordable for a premium product.

🇮🇹 Juicy blood oranges from Sicily arriving in 3-5working days

📦 Boxes: 5kg (1–2 ppl), 15kg (3–4 ppl), 30kg+ if sharing / small businesses

🤑 Price/Box: from £19, Price/kg: £3.50-3.80

📍Collection points in Bristol and Bath TBC.

🍊 Order closes Sunday night! Every week, until harvest ends (Feb/March).

The Fair Grocer food experience starts in Italy and lands in the UK, bringing flavours and food experiences closer to our towns while supporting small farmers and producers.

From a small farm in Sicily to Bristol & Bath — without squeezing producers or inflating prices. Buying in bulk, at peak season, means farmers are paid fairly, and you get exceptional fruit at its best.

These oranges are not local.

They’re Sicilian 🇮🇹 because that’s where blood oranges belong.

Buying them in season, directly from a family farm, is still one of the smartest and fairest food choices you can make.

It all begins with the basics: providing good quality food for ourselves and our families.

We need new vocabulary, and new tools, that talk to US. Making business is instrumental to our survival, and not the opposite.

The Fair Grocer offers a hands-on, transparent, cost-free platform to make shopping local easy for businesses and groups.

Vendors come on board for free. You only pay if you sell.

💬 DM, book a call, or meet in person.
Change starts with how we eat — and who we buy from.

The time for change is now.
