A word from Ginny:
'I first heard about Brenda and Barefoot Veg from a friend, who posted photos on her socials with a visually gorgeous box of flowers and vegetables. I had a friend going through a tough time and thought a similar box would be a really nice gift for her, so I got in touch. One box for my friend was enough to get me hooked and I’ve been getting my own seasonal vegetables, flowers and fruit from Barefoot Veg ever since. The selection is always really interesting, thoughtfully put together and super-fresh (picked on the same day). I’ve had great fun looking at the variety in each box and working out what to cook. I’m trying to put more fresh, local and seasonal produce into our diet and reduce our use of ultra processed foods, so having a lovely local grower like Brenda is helping me do that, and reduce the food miles from garden to table.' |

CACAO
|
Chocolate in it's purest form!
I spent a long time sourcing organic, as ethical as possible and good quality cacao from Peru. Known for its high magnesium and anti-oxidant and other positive health properties, it also contains theobromine, small amounts of caffeine. The nibs are the purest form of cacao available, air dried and packed full of goodness. They add a yummy crunch to breakfasts, salads and other snacks. The 'paste' can be cut or grated, and mixed with hot water or a milk of your choice for a healthy chocolate drink. Add 20-40g cacao, depending on your taste. I add mine to oats porridge for breakfast. You can add honey, nutmeg, chilli, cinnamon - be experimental to your hearts content! The paste is basically the nibs ground up to make them easier to melt. Nibs: 250g £12 Paste: £250g £16 |
A bit about pure cacao:
Numerous studies have been coming out over the past few years that indicate that chocolate, more specifically dark chocolate,
may have beneficial aspects to health.
These include lowering risk of heart disease, lowering the risk of stroke, improving blood flow,
as well as containing high levels of nutrients such as magnesium, antioxidants (easily destroyed by heat) and vitamins.
Raw chocolate cuts out the bad aspects of chocolate, such as dairy, refined sugar and artificial junk,
while also preserving nutrients from minimal heating.
There is nothing artificial. Raw cacao beans are never roasted, the extraction of the butter and powder is done on a small scale, under low temperatures No conching or tempering is involved.

I love making bunches of cut flowers which I grow in amongst the veg,

Delivery cost depending on location. They come wrapped or in a recycled glass jar. If you need a card, check out my Shop for hand made cards. Here are some examples, from £5: |
a note on PACKAGING
|
I re-use various packaging, bottles and boxes,
so sometimes the packaging might not always look pretty, and will never be the same. This helps keep costs down, and doing what we can to help the environment in tiny small ways.... Don't worry, this does not compromise the quality of the produce! |
None of this would be possible without the help of these three...
Zuki the Opal Snowflake Coconut Queen (Chobs)
Rooibos O'Malley Terry the Naartjie Cat (My Boy)
and.... John!
