News and Reviews

First up is our seasonality update; June is the season of Runner beans, Mangetout, French Beans, Broad Beans & the sweet little Pea!

Did you know.. Peas are a good low calorie source of protein. A 100-calorie serving of peas (about ¾ cup) contains more protein than a whole egg or a tablespoon of peanut butter and has less than one gram of fat and no cholesterol.

The Irish organic farms are a little behind after a harsh winter, but we are delighted that Irish local deliveries have increased to four times a week and now include, lettuce, scallions, rocket, mixed leaves and cucumbers.

Remember, our lettuce is picked in Marc Michel’s Farm in Wicklow at 6am and on sale in store at 8am, now that is freshness.  Tomatoes and strawberries are on their way soon.

New products include an organic tanning range by Vani-T which are rich in anti-oxidants, vitamins and botanical extracts while still providing an excellent fake tan.

In store, we have also launched a new range of chocolate that we literally cannot keep on the shelf due to its popularity.  It’s called ‘Vivani’, and includes crazy flavours like dark chocolate with green tea & mango.  Our elves are busy photographing the range to be uploaded to the website shortly

This month we will have more exciting summer recipes, guest blogs from celebrity chef Rozanne Stevens and topical organic blogs from Dr Oliver Moore.

On the wine side we are running an unbeatable promotion of 40% off Albet i Noya Can Vendrell Negre..a truly delicious Spanish young red organic wine.  It even gets the title of “Staff Recommendation”.

We have got some great promotion, staff recommendations and super offers in June.  We promise to keep you posted!

Enjoy the sun, seasonality and the great food summer has to offer.
