Organic Food Supplies and Deliveries Near You

I've got my copy of The New Shopper's Guide to Organic Food by Lynda Brown - ISBN 1-84115-425-3

Almost five hundred pages of fascinating stuff! It's got lots of suppliers listed at the back.

They're not indexed by town directly but by regions first then the town in the region.

If you post the name of a town near you (and perhaps a couple of others to help give me a chance) I'll look them up for you.

What I'll do to help me keep track of who I've answered (and to save you having to hop about) is to Edit Your Post Directly with whatever answers I can find for you. So the post will look a bit like this...
I live near Ispwich in East Anglia / South East and Colchester is close one way, and Woodbridge another.

Edit by squeaky: The best I can find for you is Hintlesham... address... phone...

OK?

Please note that the phone nos may be out of date - but you've got the address so can use directory enquiries

    Can you see if there are any in Shetland - any town, I don't mind. I'd be surprised....

    Thanks

    Edit by squeaky: There are Box Schemes in Skye and Orkney... and specialist suppliers listed in "Scotland North" - you'll have to give this sassenach more of a clue :)

    LOL! If you found Skye and Orkney then you would have found Shetland had it been there - I suspected it wouldn't be.

    Thanks for looking :)

    I had to sign in and register and then the "search" just fed me into an adverts page. I'll try again after my registration has come back to me in 24 hours or so.

    Hi

    Abel and Cole deliver in Greenwich which is just down the road from Orpington, you can try them: www.abel-cole.co.uk I can recommend them very highly - if you decide to use them please say that I recommended you so they will give me a bottle of organic olive oil for the referral (pm me if this is the case please!)

    Or Capricorn Organics: http://www.capricornorganics.co.uk/ they definitely deliver in the borough of Bexley. Quite expensive, never used personally.

    Or Farmaround: http://www.farmaround.co.uk/ Reasonably priced, veg very good but occasionally dismal fruit.

    Or Riverford: http://www.riverford.co.uk they have recently started delivery in London so you might be lucky - I heard they are wonderful but I never used them myself.

    Good luck!

    Caterina
    Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).
