It's been almost two years in the making, but in the next few weeks beelocal will start what promises to be a great online shopping and home delivery service for local food – out of Kendal. I met the brain behind the company, David Redmayne, at the Westmoreland Show today, and he was happy to tell me that this clearly quite complex venture is now ready to take off. David has signed on 14 local food producers (so far), who have all installed the beelocal software. This basically means that you will be able to shop online from any of these producers, all from the www.beelocal.co.uk website, and get your food delivered the very next day.
Living in Grasmere, which isn't really near any good farm shop, we are very excited at the prospect of being able to source locally without having to drive up and down the county!
I'll post more once they launch the service – these are the producers which are signed up:
- Dales Traditional Butcher
- Churchmouse Cheeses
- Mansergh Hall Farm
- Savin Hill Farm
- Higginsons Of Grange
- Cartmel Sticky Toffee Pudding Company
- Furness Fish And Game Supplies - Morecambe Bay Potted Shrimp
- The Grange Bakery
- English Lakes Ice Cream
- The Staff Of Life Bakery
- Organico Wine Merchants
- Hawkshead Brewery
- Low Sizergh Barn Dairy
- Low Foulshaw Farm - South Lakeland Eggs
