The Fox would like to say a big thank you to all those who came to our live music event on Saturday 22nd May. The response was amazing. We have had such positive and encouraging feedback, which we cannot thank you enough. We have all been through a tough and sad 18 months. It was so lovely to see everyone with smiles on their faces, laughing and joking. We all deserve a bit of light hearted happiness and music playing. It is so important to us to see our caring community enjoying themselves. We value your support and welcome you with open arms. 🦊❤

Yesterday I had some amazing new cheeses delivered, Pevensey Blue from Neal's Yard Dairy. Developed in the style of a Gorgonzola, Pevensey Blue is sweet and nutty in flavour, with a soft squidgy texture that invites the simple company of some good bread. Davidstow 40 Month Reserve Cheddar, a multi-award winning vintage cheddar with an intensely rich, complex flavour and crunchy texture; typically matured for 40 months and presented in a distinctive black wax. 60 Month Special Reserve, previously only available to try at a select handful of Michelin star restaurants, this cheddar will bring instant wow-factor to any meal.
Needless to say we sold out of the Davidstow within 2 hours, but fear not we will have some next Thursday 🦊💚🧀

We are very excited to announce that we will be opening Village Pantry @ The Fox on Wednesday 3rd March.

Are you tired of shopping in a crowded supermarket where everyone is literally rushed, the produce is shipped in from who knows where, and natural, cruelty-free products are few and far between? If so, then give shopping locally a shot!

7 Reasons to shop local:

1. Locally grown food is full of flavour. When grown locally, the crops are picked at their peak of ripeness versus being harvested early in order to be shipped and distributed to your local retail store. Many times produce at local stores has been picked within 24 hours of your purchase.

2. Eating local food is eating seasonally. Even though we wish strawberries were grown year round in England, the best time to eat them is when they can be purchased directly from a local grower. They are full of flavour and taste better than the ones available in the winter that have traveled thousands of miles and picked before they were ripe.

3. Local food has more nutrients. Local food has a shorter time between harvest and your table, and it is less likely that the nutrient value has decreased. Food imported from far-away countries is often older, has traveled and sits in distribution centres before it gets to your store.

4. Local food supports the local economy. The money that is spent with local farmers and growers all stays close to home and is reinvested with businesses and services in your community.

5. Local food benefits the environment. By purchasing locally grown foods you help maintain farmland and green and/or open space in your community.

6. Local foods promote a safer food supply. The more steps there are between you and your food’s source the more chances there are for contamination. Food grown in distant locations has the potential for food safety issues at harvesting, washing, shipping and distribution.

7. Local growers can tell you how the food was grown. You can ask what practices they use to raise and harvest the crops. When you know where your food comes from and who grew it, you know a lot more about that food.
