🚨Meals are coming back 🚨

We’ve had a short break. We know you’ve been asking and yes we are doing them, but they won’t be as frequent in the summer. If you’re signed up to our email you’ll find out delivery dates and menus this week - if you’re not signed up just go to the link in the bio…

🧐But before we send those emails out we’d love to know what food you loved the most, what you want to see come back, any suggestions for new things… and you can’t just say sticky toffee pud (without adding something else 😛)

Is it the butter chicken you crave? Our homemade Pasta and pasta sauces? What’s summer food for you, lasagne or is it the Pho?

Is there something you’re craving that we could add to your weeknight meal stock up… tell us below ⬇️

Reel full of our meals and our faces (eating lots of glorious food) so that this shows up in your feed… 🤪

Of course all our meals will feature our brilliant local suppliers of produce

“Ovs” We love Gooseberries… who doesn’t? 👀

We are growing four bushes this year, small, delicate, delicious. Gooseberry crumble, Gooseberry Sauce, Fire Roasted, Pickled… the possibilities for these delicious green blobs is endless!

Sally is out in the Lethan Croft Kitchen Garden chatting about how much she loves them, how they are growing and what she might cook with them - if you’re lucky they might appear in the Meal deliveries soon… and in our catering.

Sally talks about the Choggia Beetroot growing in our kitchen garden, soon to be in our meals and on catering, watch until the end for her tips on a really tasty way to cook them, including a chefs kiss!

We kept the outtakes on this one, a few bee screams 🐝

• 5 Years in Business Celebration of •

When I first moved to Moray, I went to one of Lucy’s events, I knew no one up here and I was terrified. But when I arrived I was made to feel so welcome, part of a wonderful place and I soon learnt that Lucy was a brilliant, fun person to be around (if I ever go up there to deliver food I know I’ll be two hours laughing). So I kept going back and eventually started catering the Greenbrae events.

has been a huge part of my 4 years up here and 3 years in Business, Lucy was my first booking and I was delighted to bring the Strawberry Gateaux dream to life for this celebration.

Layers of Strawberry jam using local strawberries, a creme Mousseline made with local cream, eggs and topped with whipped cream and sponge infused with elderflowers from our hill.

Many layers and pure joy, just like ! Congratulations to Lucy and Neil for 5 years in business that’s no easy thing to achieve!

• The Launch of •

Venison is such an important part of a Scottish and Local Food system that it’s brilliant to see this venture start (and just down the road from us, couldn’t be more local). We are always talking about the benefits of deer both for regeneration and our own personal health as a regenerative meat to have on your plate. So we were overjoyed to be asked to cater the launch of this event in Forres.

We had a brilliant time coming up with a menu for the launch for Linzi and Tom. Using their amazing Venison we created Venison Stovies, Empanadas and Boa Buns!

Alongside this we showcased Venison from paired with a Blue Murder cheese.

Complimentary to the Venison we used on Crostini and our savoury shortbreads.

All topped off with a GlenAllachie 2012 Whisky and Chocolate Tart!

Check out the latest blog by good food partnership to find out more about the launch event.

Garden update

sure all my fellow growers/gardeners out there are feeling the same frustrations mixed with joy that we are here!

The weather has been challenging this year so far and we’ve had a bunch of crops die in the cold winds - beans and peas suffered especially. On the flip side the tatties are springing up, radishes are ready to eat, broad beans and spinach are flourishing and we have an abundance of flowers

Just waking around and the place is humming with insects like it should be. There’s bees everywhere, butterflies, spiders and all those flies that we swat away and complain about but are vital parts of our ecosystem. I love all of these tiny creatures and feel so lucky to provide a place free of chemicals where they can thrive

• A SMALL ECOSYSTEM • and we don’t mean Morag…

Quick stroll around the garden this morning with Morag, in between catering tasks - catering for a group at Pluscarden Village Hall today…

May feels like it’s finally arrived, the kitchen feels too hot, the birds are singing and there’s so many gorgeous plants out; flowers, fruit trees, rhubarb the lot!

Yesterday I noticed my peas have survived the rain and I’m very excited by it!

If you got our weekly menu email you’ll know that the weather has been a concern for us, chefs and gardeners are both equally obsessed with it because it dictates the food we can grow and eat. (If you don’t get it sign up in the bio, it’s not intense emailing just an update once a week to tell you our meals, it’s no more than that but handy if you want to keep up to date on the deliveries)

We do both here, growing food and cooking and looking after this piece of land so it brings in insects, birds, amphibians the lot. Building an ecosystem with good soil and lots of inhabitants Because we need all of that to produce nutritious, organic-led food. With fingers and toes crossed more of our produce will be hitting our meals and our catering platters in the next month. 😍😋😋
