From nutty Brussels sprouts to fluffy, crispy roast spuds, it’s the chorus of side dishes that really make the meal (although having a whopper of a centrepiece can’t hurt, either). For us, Christmas is the time when sweet, golden parsnips are just as important to your festive table as fairy lights are to your tree.
Christmas preparations for our growers arrive very early in the year. It was all the way back in May that dashing Nick Walton began sowing seeds on Bagthorpe Farm in Norfolk. Lo and behold, a few months later and our Christmas boxes are full with glorious organic parsnips.
A few weeks ago Nick took to the fields with many hands to begin hand plucking them out of the soil. Diana is a local woman who’s seen many a harvest over the years and just “loves getting the winter crops out.” With festive fare from the fields of Norfolk, our yellow vans will be dashing to your door – quite possibly through the snow by the time the big day rolls around! Next stop: your Christmas lunch.
