Riverfords - organic food selection


Recommended Posts

I've just signed up to Riverfords, who grow and pick seasonal veg and deliver it to your door. http://www.riverford.co.uk/


I received a knock on my door last night from a friendly sales agent and signed up to a trial. I was passed onto the the phone to give my card details which I didn't feel that comfortable about outside my front door but it all seems legit having a search on the web and on EDF it seems they are a proper company and I have received email notifications about my account.

I've used Riverford for years. Definitely legitimate and with a really nice local (Southwark-based) distributor (Ged and Susie) too. I also have a lot of time for Guy Watson (the guy who runs Riverford) in terms of how he tries to balance the ethical and customer sides of his business and how focused he is on sustainability.


This is his blog/news letter - http://www.riverford.co.uk/news. Mostly about what is coming up or what isn't working on the farms but every now something that really makes you think about where your food comes from.


I should say I think Local Greens look really good too, but Riverford works for us.


Edited to add the right link.

We've being using Riverford for a few months and love it. Better than others I've used (never tried Local Greens mind you!). We get most of our shopping from there. Fruit, veg, milk, cheese, bread. The soups are blooming gorgeous and they've recently been stocking padron peppers! They don't freight which I like and the quality is consistently good in my experience.

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
