Eat your Greens at Freespirit Pubs!

Hi everyone,

If you follow me on LinkedIn, you would have seen my Naked Truth, with weekly posts sharing the ups and downs of owning a hospitality business.  

I shared last week about our chef day where we visited one of our growers we use, Blackdown Growers based just outside Leamington Spa , who grow all salads and herbs, it was fantastic to see and the chefs really enjoyed the visit, something that we try and do two or three times a year visiting different growers, producers and farmers.

I grew up on a farm, my father and grandfather where both farmers, and working closely with these amazing people and produce is one of my favourite things.

I really believe our farming here in the UK is a second to none, closely followed by the hospitality in my humble opinion.

We also have fantastic individuals who bring their fresh fruit and vegetables to our pubs in return for beer vouchers or the occasional meal.

We have worked with Alan from Tysoe for years and he brings us some amazing fruit and vegetables from his allotment, friends in Ashby St ledgers often bring their wares to The Coach House.

If you have a run of something and don’t want to see things go to waste, or want to see on a specials board in your favourite Freespirit pub – drop me a line – im sure we can do something!

Have an awesome weekend!

Big Love,

Mark
