@emily_darko Thank you Emily! We'll miss delivering your veg but we know your veggie needs will be well looked after by Growing Communities come September 💚

@cropdrop Some of the tastiest fruit and veg I've ever had! Sorry to see you go

After 9 wonderful years of building a community together around good food, fair pay for farmers and the joys of organic, seasonal + local fruit and veg, we're sad to announce that Crop Drop will cease trading as a veg bag scheme at the end of August.

@byrnelisa2013 We're sorry! We gave it our best shot and we're proud of what we achieved in those 9 years but we're excited for a new chapter 💚

@cropdrop Gutted to only find out about this now

Just got my weekly @cropdrop email with the news that they're being evicted and ceasing trading. Sad news for what has been a fabulous veg bag scheme! 🍅🥕🥒 Hope that @growcomm lives up to their high standards... cropdrop.co.uk/blog/2022/07/n…

@cecilyspelling Thanks so much Cecily, that means a lot! We're so glad you enjoyed your time with us and hope you are able to find something similar in your new home💞

Sorry to see you go @cropdrop. I may not live in London anymore but when I did you were a highlight of the week, especially during lockdown! Thank you for the veg, for introducing me to kohlrabi & for giving it a go. cropdrop.co.uk/blog/2022/07/n…

32% of all food and soft drink advertising is spent promoting unhealthy products - compared to just 1% on fruit and vegetables. Our #BrokenPlate2022 report shows action is needed to address this imbalance given the influence on consumer choices. Link: ➡️ bit.ly/3aQDiJd

Today, just one day after celebrating the wonders of peat on International #BogDay, we’re frustrated that the UK Government has still not shared its plans for a ban on the sale of bagged peat compost. (1/4)
