Payhembury Provisions News- February 2020

30 January 2020 By Sue

We know Spring is on the way when the buckets of daffodils appear for sale outside the shop. They are grown for us by Fentongollan Farm on the Fal estuary in Cornwall and are picked, packed, and in Payhembury all within a matter of hours. We’ll have a selection of different varieties as they come into flower over the coming weeks.

The latest new product in our chiller this month is fresh milk from the Oak Park Dairy in Clyst Hydon. The Mitchem family, who have been running Oak Park for four generations, set up a new enterprise on their farm last year selling milk from their herd of Jersey and Holstein cattle. The cows are fed on home-grown grass, maize and sweet clover in the Devon countryside. With an eye to a more sustainable future, the milk is supplied in re-usable and returnable glass bottles.

If you enjoy a nice joint of tender, tasty beef, a succulent steak or want to stock up your freezer with meat for casseroles and family meals you may be interested to know that we are expecting more of Jon Carden’s Red Ruby beef in the shop towards the end of February. This is beef that has been properly hung, from grassfed cattle who have lived in the fields at Tuck Mill, barely a couple of miles from the shop. All our meat from local farms usually sells very quickly so please keep an eye open for its arrival in the shop.

We run a Facebook page in order to keep you posted about all this great local produce, just search for Payhembury Provisions Facebook to find it. Even if you’re a total social-mediaphobe you may find it useful if you want to ask us a question or to find out our holiday opening hours. Speaking of which, although Christmas may seem a distant memory now, we haven’t forgotten all our volunteers who spared precious time over Christmas and the New Year to keep the shop running, thank you all!

P.S. We have just learned that Payhembury Provisions is one of the Regional Finalists in the 2020 Countryside Alliance awards. Thank you to everyone who supported us; we’ll keep you posted how we get on in the next round.
