Provisional bag contents for week starting Monday 14 April
Kumquats coming in this week's small fruit bags. They are the opposite of other citrus - the flesh is sharp (and pippy), but the skins are super-sweet, juicy and delicious, so you eat the whole thing.
Apologies, there are tiny black flea beetle in the purple sprouting broccoli. They love brassicas! They are harmless to people and pets, but give your veggies a good wash before eating. As always, if any of your produce isn't up to scratch, lettuce know.

Provisional bag contents for week starting Monday 21 April
We reproduce these images from the BBC every year, as they show so starkly the difference between local in-season asparagus and the asparagus available in supermarkets for the rest of the year, which has a carbon footprint more than 17 times higher than the local stalks. So eat your fill while it's in season and try to avoid it the rest of the time.
