Good morning from sunny Turkey 👋.
It's been great to relax on a proper holiday (as you know, our time spent in Spain wasn't quite like that) and enjoy time with Vic's mum and dad whilst we can.
However, as any business owner will tell you, we never fully switch off and are always looking at what comes next. We made some calls yesterday to organise a collection of autumn/winter plants. The plan is to arrive home late Monday night/Tuesday morning, grab a few hours sleep and then drive to our supplier in Essex on Tuesday afternoon. The plants should be available in the shop from Wednesday.
We also spoke to our friends at Manor Farm and should have their full range of berries from next week 🤞.
Henry has placed a big order with Nonna's Authentic Sicilian Products to make sure we've got you covered for the coming season (not using that word just yet 😆).
We have spoken to a local baker and agreed to meet up to discuss them supplying us with some sweet treats to go with our new coffee machine. There may even be some nice bread?
There are a couple of other suppliers that we intend talking to as we look to pack the shop out with lots of amazing produce and also extend our range of our commercial delivery service .
As you all know, it's been a difficult few months for us and we've really needed this holiday, but when we return next week, it's time to lick our wounds and get on with it, get back to driving the train 🚆......we all know when the next stop is 💪.
Henry, Victor and Elizabeth will look after you for the rest of the week, we'll see you next week 🙏.
Vic and Georgia xx ❤️💙
