Market Drayton Stand Together

04/02/2026

For a while now some of us have been ordering wholesale from an organic supplier called suma, we have decided to set up a separate food cooperative group and open it up to others in the market Drayton area .

The group has also ordered flour ( folic acid free) directly from the mill and tea supplies from a small independent business.

This is something we wish to continue and are hoping to gain a few new members. It costs nothing to join the group and you will be supporting some smaller businesses as well as buying organic and cheaper in bulk, this helps us to avoid supermarkets more and more so not so much frustrating empty shelves and as more and more people are realising that the processed food sold in theee places are not nutritional meals people are again making their own bread and meals from scratch, suma sells all the ingredients bar the fresh which we are able to get from local farms such as Victoria farm , fordhall farm and the local fruit farms.

This isnt a club to put our remaining small business's out of business but aims to help larger families or people struggling to buy quality foods a bit more cheaply.

We hope the group will be able to share orders , split cases and share meal ideas.

We also order raw milk from a local dairy so this is also an option.

No profits are being made by the group and so any delivery ,fetching of orders is down to the group to share the fuel cost ect.

If your interested in being involved and becoming less reliant on money grabbing supermarket giants and want to support your communities please get in touch.

This is the main entrance to Damson Wood Nature Walk. All this will be DESTROYED if we do not come together and SAVE this beautiful area from development.

Damson Wood is used by so many local people. Why should we LOOSE our last peace of green space west of Market Drayton for development and filling the pockets of wealthy millionaires!!!

Remember we all came together back in 2020 to stop the development of 97 homes! We won this battle before and know we can do it again. Yes we have some hard work ahead of us. However we cannot do this without you! This is why the community MUST come together.

The true work begins now as this is the application we have all been waiting for. Your OBJECTIONS are needed and your voice really does MAKE THE DIFFERENCE.

We really need your support right now! You might have seen that farmners are protesting - one of the issues is supermarkets making huge amounts of profits whilst the farmers are being paid a pittance..

Support our organic farmers! We're building a national network of farmers & suppliers (a network owned by YOU!)

We had 50 volunteers helping last week as we battled the snow to get organic food to everyone

Please use your money to support us as we help create the new People-owned systems & services we're all going to need

We are not-for-profit & our prices are kept super affordable (we are better value than Tesco and all the national veg box schemes)

So this morning is the last day of 2023, and boy, i am glad to see the back of it. I have carved the words of what I intend to leave behind in 2023 into the candle and I intend to watch it burn down past the words in order to go into 2024 with a fresh new much more positive and productive attitude. ANYONE that brought me down or hurt me in the past will not be allowed to do it again EVER, and the past is left behind, and a new page is turned! Well done to all of us here for surviving another Yr, and let's all hit 2024 the way we mean to continue . Happy 2024 everyone I have such a good feeling about the year ahead ! Much good is on the way so let's continue to support each other through the rough times to get to the good new earth thats not as far away now as it was 12 mths ago. ###

This is the story of Biggleswick, the rebel town that doesn't like being put upon by central Government and their puppet council.----------------------------...

We keep seeing groups forming all over rather uk to go to local council meetings to check out what's happening at them. This is a brilliant idea as these councils need to be united with the local towns they are meant to be working for. Too many are going along with ideas and progrelams that don't benefit the very people they are supposed to be helping. If your interested in being part of a "shadow council " for want of a better phrase and attending local meetings then reporting back to the actual towns people for their opinions on the subjects being discussed then plz pop us a message!
