Co-op Essex

When I was still working as an office employee, we have this Cooperative type of organization inside the school. A specific amount is being taken from our paycheck as our contribution and savings. It's a nice organization because we get a portion of what is earned by the cooperative at the end of the year. Co-op Essex is an England based society which helps you to find the cooperative in your area. You may check it out if you are living around the area mentioned above. In the meantime, Nina and her family have been busy sampling Doug’s produce each week and have become fans. Even the kids like to eat it, which is amazing! Last week Ellie even complained to her mum that her school lunchbox was boring because it didn’t include Doug’s salad! This week at our tasting session the four of us tried out a variety of leaves which Doug grows, including red-veined sorrel, bergamot, mottistone lettuce, rosemore lettuce, bull’s blood, which is a beetroot leaf, yellow chard, orche and even a variety of basils, including lime and cinnamon.
