Meet our growers
The Veg Collective growers are all from Mid Ulster and have come together to work collectively, co-ordinating a planting plan to provide a fresh supply of veg throughout the seasons.
AJ’S FARMSHOP: ANNA BRADLEY
Anna supplies all manner of tasty treats from her lovely farm shop on the shores of Lough Neagh, Mid Ulster. The amazing thing is that EVERYTHING in the shop comes from the island of Ireland. It’s carefully chosen, Anna knows all her suppliers personally. She also makes great coffee.
AJ’s Farm Shop is the hub for our veg box scheme where all our growers meet up on a Friday to morning to pack up the freshest veg, all from within a few miles.
AJ’s grow their own chemical-free vegetables and fruit, no artificial feeds or pesticides, just organic material and a bit of hard work. AJ’s uses only nature friendly, regenerative farming practices, trying to find that balance of flora and fauna to create a sustainable and productive ecosystem.
