WELCOME TO THE AUTUMN HARVEST!
It’s harvest time and what better way to celebrate our local producers than popping some home-grown products into your basket or trolley?
At Warner’s, we know how fortunate we are to have so many talented local suppliers on our doorstep, and we are passionate about sharing their talents with our customers. From seasonal fruit to freshly-baked bread and artisanal cider, this September, why not make it your mission to support our local producers - here are the top 5 products we’ll be stocking up on this month:
Apples – if there’s one fruit that’s synonymous with the British autumn, it’s the humble apple. Once home to over 1500 species of native apple, the UK has sadly seen orchards dwindle in recent years, and tastebuds have followed suit. But this September, step outside your comfort zone – think beyond Pink Lady, Braeburn and Cox and try some of the other locally-grown varieties that we have on our shelves.
Pears – another autumn favourite, if it’s not British then think again! Nothing beats a freshly picked, perfectly ripe pear, the kind that was left to ripen naturally on the tree, ekeing out every last drop of sunshine until the last minute. Then picked and on the shelves in just a few hours… Trust us, nothing else comes close!
Plums – plums love our climate and, thanks to the incredibly hot summer, we’ve been enjoying a glut of ripe juicy plums since the middle of august. Get your pick of the best now before the season’s over – try them in traybakes, roasted with yogurt or stewed with ice cream.
Bread – every country has their own way of baking bread but at Warners, we’re pretty partial to La Parisienne’s perfectly baked sourdough and rustic campagna. Whatever your preference, make sure your daily bread is freshly baked with love, care and attention – baking the perfect loaf is a skill that we should celebrate every day.
Cider – we are in the heart of cider country so there’s good reason we have so many fantastic tipples on our shelves . Award-winning ciders include Pearsons, Severn, and Malvern Cider but the only way to find your favourite is to try them all!
