Catch the last raspberries of the season along with a variety of eating and cooking apples.

Among the vegetables available are potatoes, kale, spinach, chard, and leeks . Also available are half a dozen varieties of lettuce, tomatoes, c and our famous salad bags which include chicories, endives, cresses and rocket, as well as half a dozen kinds of lettuce - not to mention edible flowers and herbs.

Try the first of our new jam flavours as well - along with the old favourites such as raspberry, blackcurrant, and Luk's special rhubarb and ginger you can now try very special flavours such as elderberry and apple which is already proving a big hit with the customers in the Dublin Food Coop

It isn't too late to plant winter salad plants from the plant stall if you have somewhere protedted to grow them - garlic, winter cabbage, kale, chard, spinach, lettuce and winter chicories. We now have a range of native Irish apple trees, chosen for flavour, suitability for local growing, and a long season of use.
