When we first opened our doors on May 2nd, we hoped people would be pleased to see us, but we could never have anticipated the reaction we've had during our first week. We've been overwhelmed by the warm welcome and are delighted that we've already got a steady stream of regular customers. Thank you all for your support and your kind words - it's made our opening week very special and something which every one of us who works here will remember for a long time to come. We've particularly appreciated the comments and suggestions you've given us, from requests for a bike rack (now installed in our car park and certainly not like any other you've ever seen) to ideas about different products and suppliers. We can't promise to stock everything you want (we've only got limited space), but we'll do our best to keep our shelves full of the kind of foods and goods you want to buy. So please keep telling us what you like about our store and what you think we could do better. After all, it's your store too.

And just to remind you, we're holding our first Sunday brunch tasting event this Sunday, May 11th, from 12 noon until 4pm. We're closing our car park so that a few of our favourite suppliers can set up stalls there and offer you a sample of some of the delicious food they produce. We hope to see you there. Dig in!

Disability Access

We'd love to welcome everyone to Earthy, but the main market is on the first floor, accessed only by stairs, which we know presents problems if you are a wheelchair user or have difficulty getting about without assistance. We wanted to install a wheelchair ramp or a lift in the building, but the costs were prohibitive and, as a small start up business, meant the difference between us opening and not opening. We don't like to disappoint anyone, though, so do our best to help you if you need assistance. And to make life a little easier, you’ll soon be able to order online here at www.earthy.co.uk.
