#thechefstable

We've been 'up and running' for almost two whole months now and we've met some amazing people along the way. Amongst our favourites are The Natural Veg Men.  

Even when The Chef's Table  was just a vague idea in our minds ethically sourced quality ingredients were always forefront in our plans and after lots of research into local suppliers we found these guys and since our very first meet with them back at the beginning of April we've become firm friends. 

The Natural Veg Men share our passion for real food grown naturally. They use low energy organic techniques to grow seasonal produce for local customers, in other words there are no chemicals, no hot houses, no forced growing which in turn means that they only grow whats in season but it's the tastiest, freshest and most organic produce you will find because it's not filled with nasties!

"What we've seen, in this country, is a slow degradation of our capacity to feed ourselves at a local level.  We are working longer hours and have become reliant on factory produced food.  Food which is full of artificial 'enhancement', food which is flown in from all over the globe, food which is grown with only profit in mind. Luckily for us, we've escaped the rat race and now we want to share our love for fresh, natural produce with local communities. "

We really believe in the sustainable ethics of The Natural Veg Men and the natural and organic way they grow their produce. Our seasonal menu at The Chef's Table is designed around what Matt and his team have grown and picked in their fields that week. Liam and Matt chat almost everyday about produce and menu ideas, we even have our own micro herbs in Matts greenhouse! We are so proud to be able to bring such a fantastic local product to our customers and with The Natural Veg Men being based only seven miles from us this really is the ultimate in farm to fork eating.
