Good afternoon everyone.
After 6 happy and productive soup making years we have decided that now is the time to finish and focus on other things.

Orders received earlier this week will obviously be honoured and delivered tomorrow as arranged.

We'd like to thank all of our customers for supporting us and for the great feedback which we always appreciated.

Sending our very best wishes, Helen and Simon

Good afternoon everyone - please see below this week's menu. Orders received by Wednesday will be delivered Friday.
After no price movement over the last 6 years, we have been monitoring our costs and have taken the decision to increase our price to £3.50 per tub. This will help to compensate for increases in packaging, veg, insurance and of course fuel costs.
Looking forward to hearing from everyone.

Good afternoon - we'll be posting a menu again next Monday. If anyone has any requests in the meantime, please just message us. Fingers crossed the weekend's markets will be unaffected by weather - storms have been causing us all chaos.
Best wishes, Helen & Simon
