Calder’s kitchen

Calder’s Kitchen was formed by husband and wife team Andrew and Anne-Marie Calder in 2015. They started making Piccalilli in their family kitchen after discovering Andrew’s late Granddad, Charlie’s favourite family recipe and deciding to ‘give it a go’. After initially giving their first batch to family and friends to try and receiving great feedback, they started to sell hampers at Christmas to raise money for a school in Tanzania, East Africa. They later developed two variations on the traditional recipe, Chillililli which has a delicious medium strength sweet chilli glow and later, the slightly naughty spicy Sillylilli (Andrew’s favourite which he now eats with, well pretty much everything!). They take pride in their values which are providing quality, fresh and unique flavours, hard work and making our customers smile.

Screaming Chimp Chilli Sauce

At Screaming Chimp HQ, they think it is important to supply the best product possible, and only use the best produce for the job. Mr and Mrs Chimp make small batches from their kitchen at home, which brings them immense joy. They have always had a passion for cooking, so when an old friend kindly gave them some of his chilli seedlings, which grew big and produced lots of chillies, they knew what they had to do. Using home grown chillies and as many locally sourced ingredients as possible, Mr Chimp set about developing the sauces into the mouth tingling range they have today. The only problem was what to call them. That serendipitous moment came along when visiting friends (you know who you are) and teaching their children how to blow on a blade of grass between two thumbs to make that strange noise we all know …..“That sounds like a screaming chimp”..…. “SCREAMING CHIMP!! That’s an awesome name. Perfect…that’s what I’m calling the sauces”. So, now they couldn’t be happier making their troop of artisan Screaming Chimp Chilli Sauces .“Scream if you want to go hotter!”

Acorn Dairy

The Tweddle family has been farming at Archdeacon Newton, near Darlington, since 1928 and today, four generations later, they are still heavily involved in dairy farming. You could say it’s in their blood! In 1998, as public awareness of the quality and traceability of the food we eat became more vocal, they decided to convert Garthorne Farm at Archdeacon Newton and Hallwith Farm near Leyburn in Wensleydale to organic status. Since then, Gordon and Linda Tweddle, together with son Graham and daughter Caroline, have revived the tradition of doorstep and wholesale delivery across the North of England with organic milk and cream and other complementary produce from Acorn Dairy. Winner of the Food Awards England 2017.

Weardale Cheese

Since 2015, Weardale Cheese has produced a range of artisanal hard and semi-soft cow’s milk cheeses in the unique setting of an old Prisoner of War Camp hut in beautiful Weardale, Co. Durham. The milk comes direct from a neighbouring farm and is brought down straight after milking on a cheese day and made in small batches by Simon. The cheeses made include ‘Weardale’, a firm, white northern dales cheese, a semi-soft ‘Brie de Weardale’, St. Cuthbert, a semi-soft blue, ‘Prince Bishop’, also blue but firmer, ‘Bonny Moor Hen’, lightly smoked with cherry wood, a subtly flavoured ‘Weardale Nettle’ and the Spanish inspired ‘Diablo’, flavoured with smoked paprika and chilli flakes.

Fat Lass Preserves

Artisan Preeserves with a Modern Twist

Fat Lass Preserves aims to preserve & promote historic methods & benefits of preserving by adding a modern twist on flavors and creating inventive ways to use their preserves… Like their unique COCKTAIL MARMALADES  which can be used for toast, or cocktails. And then, there’s the VEGETABLE JAMS, a top hit with kids.

Bridget is Owner and Head Fat Lass at Fat Lass Preserves. And, just in case you were wondering, as Head Fat Lass, yes she is a big, curvy lady. She named her company Fat Lass Preserves because the word “fat” is often used as a negative, destructive term, but she believes it’s time to reclaim this negative and turn it into a positive.

Fat Lass Preserves works hard to maintain a strong ethical policy & practice. That is, all waste is fully recycled, all food scraps are composted and where possible they always aim to buy local or British produce. Even their recyclable glass jars are made in England.

Fat Lass Preserves is all about producing quality food, using top-notch ingredients. It’s food with all the tasty bits left in. Food created to be enjoyed without guilt.

All preserves are cooked in small batches, using only the best seasonal produce & British vinegars to retain & enhance natural flavours.

The preserves are lightly cooked, meaning they taste fresher, juicer & crunchier than traditional preserves.

Many Super Women (and men) come in all shapes and sizes; something Bridget is no longer embarrassed about, and much happier & healthier for it.

MAY THE POWER OF FAT LASS BE WITH YOU!!

Mazzeh Spice

Xerxes grew up not appreciating how lucky he was that his mum cooked amazing food for the family every day. There was always something different on the table, and it was always delicious. The aroma of fried spices when he came home from school or from playing in the street was…homely, comforting and generally great to come back to.

​

But, one thing he also remember from life at home was that mum was always in the kitchen. He’d wake up in the morning to the sound of her in the kitchen and the smell of onions frying. She seemed to be there for the rest of the day until the last of the washing up was finished in the evening. And when he started learning about the food, he realised that it was because there was always a lot of preparation,, whether that was grinding spices, frying onions or bringing all of the ingredients together.

​

So, with Mazzeh Spice he found the simplest ways to create authentic, traditional Parsi food. These kits require the least possible effort to make beautiful spiced curries, meals, snacks and side dishes for your family and friends.

All of the spice packets are put together by hand in the family kitchen.

Parsi, is the name given to the community of people that migrated from Ancient Persia about 1000 years ago, to live in India. Parsi people are Zoroastrians. It is one of the oldest monotheistic religions in the world, and most simply put, it is about Good Words, Good Thoughts and Good Deeds.

But Mazzeh Spice is about the food. My ancestors are Persian and Parsi food is based on Persian roots, but blended with many of the spices and methods of Indian cooking that have influenced Parsis since they arrived in India all those years ago.

​

Many Parsi dishes share the same name and basis of meals you find in a regular Indian restaurant, however, the flavours tend to be subtly different due to the blend of spices. But most importantly we never sacrifice any of the taste.

Moroccan Food Culture

Nadia’s Story:

Nadia’s talent as a cook and love and passion for cooking, came from her Moroccan origins. It had always been her drive to share the skills and knowledge learned in childhood while preparing a wide variety of dishes with her mother, passed down from her grandparents who were cooks by trade and worked in embassies and top hotels such as La Mamounia in Marrakech in the 1930’s. She started by trying family’s recipes – the combinations of herbs, spices and everything she learned from an early age, when she explored the aromas of the Marrakech souks and chose the spices.

Nadia is a qualified teacher and her passion for cooking and languages brings her mush joy as she loves to share her knowledge. She teaches Moroccan Cooking Classes – Marrakech Home Cooking Made Easy and has created her own Lemon Chicken Marinade, which came as a direct result of teaching adults who requested an authentic recipe in a jar without compromising on flavours. It is the prefect marinade. Anyone can use to create a perfect tagine to be proud of and share with their loved ones.

The Tea Enthusiasts

The Tea Enthusiasts are just that, Enthusiastic about Tea. Their mission is to bring loose leaf tea and its myriad of flavours to as many people as possible and have fun doing it. They want to dispel the myths of over-complication around loose tea and present new and innovative flavour experiences. To achieve this they are building a community and creating new products in quirky ways. Sure you can still get your typical tea from them, but if you are looking for something new and a little more interesting then you have come to the right place!

Liza Johnson, founder of the Tea Enthusiasts. “ I have always enjoyed great tea and having the good fortune to be related to a tea merchant I was always at the receiving end of high-quality samples that I could share with my friends. All of my friends could tell you their favourite loose black or green tea blends, their children could tell you about the fruit infusions they enjoyed. When a new blend arrived I would take the opportunity to share it with friends by inviting them over, sharing the learning journey. The Tea Enthusiasts is rooted in rolling out that experience to all.”

The company is built around offering customers a learning journey. Together we will explore new flavours and new blends, will discover what suits our lifestyle, our health needs, our taste buds. Then we will all share that with our friends so they too can make loose leaf artisanal tea part of their life. Why? Because not only is tea cheaper than fizzy drinks and more hydrating than coffee but it is an exciting way to improve your daily diet and reap health benefits from every sip.

They source their teas from the best tea gardens and plantations around the globe. Each tea or tisane is hand-selected and contains a unique blend of natural ingredients. They only sell the best quality loose leaf teas, most of which are sourced from the top 10% of the harvest from the finest tea estates and regions. Wherever possible they source our teas and tisanes from plantations that are organic and ETP accredited (from Ethical Tea Partnership).

Their aim is to be as sustainable as possible, loose leaf tea is inherently more environmentally friendly than tea bags, packaging has also been sourced to be as recyclable as possible, something that they constantly review. They will also be providing innovative ideas on what to do with your used tea leaves.

We include Black, Green, White, Pu erh, Oolong, Flavoured, Slimming & Detox as well as a range of fruit, herb, spice, flower and root tisanes in our selection. If you don’t see the blend you would like on offer, get in touch and we will try to blend it up for you!

If you want to know more about the health benefits of tea, or want guidance on how to brew the perfect cup, look no further than our blog

If you want to try loose leaf tea but don’t know where to start, you can just ask us! A short conversation and we can recommend a blend for you to start on.

South Durham Honey

For George Soppitt, Beekeeping began as a hobby in 2007 when his role delivering horticultural and conservation in a special educational school led him to discover more about the environmental importance of working with bees, and what began as a hobby quickly became a family business. Producing 100% unblended raw English honey directly next to Whitworth Hall in Spennymoor, the bees can access the abundant Co Durham Farmland along with the wildflowers the banks of the River Wear can offer. The business work with local farmers and nature reserves to find specially selected  sites to help pollinate Co Durham’s crops and plants throughout the spring and summer months, producing some of the finest honey.

Northumbrian Pantry

Situated in the North Tyne Valley of Simonburn, Alice and husband David run Northumbrian Pantry from their family home, selling jam, jelly and chutney, drawing inspiration from Alice’s travels and her upbringing in the Northumberland countryside. After living in Botswana to manage a Realis and Chateaux Safari Camp, the pair returned to Northumberland in 2014 and wanted to start a local enterprise using their combined skills, and from there the vision for Northumbria Pantry was born. The vision being to create the highest quality of preserves achievable, the pair carefully select the highest quality of ingredients, which are either handpicked seasonally from the orchards and wild hedgerows of the North Tyne Valley, or sourced from trusted local suppliers and markets. Committed to a positive environmental approach to all business practices and reducing their carbon footprint, all of the glass jars are made from partially recycled glass, with all labels printed on paper.

Life Kombucha

Life Kombucha is brought to you by the master brewer’s family in Hong Kong which has been passed down by her grandparents. The three-generation old recipe consists of a blend of special tea that gives the kombucha that subtle honey-like flavour. It also created a fine balance of sweetness and mouth-watering tartness. All of their teas are brewed with high quality water from the Northeast and fermented with fresh local produce. ‘Life kombucha is not only celebrating our Asian heritage, but is full of Northern soul!’

40 Kola

Upon realising there was a gap in the market for a simple and all-natural soft drink, lifelong friends Dan and Kieron began working on a recipe, and out came 40 Kola. The pair aim to curate not just a brand, but a community with their all-natural, caffeine infused beverage. Being an independent company, it gives them the freedom to work alongside other businesses who have a similar standpoint and view the world in the same light. From the beginning the goal was to champion the importance of minimal waste, and so their signature 40 milligrams of caffeine come from the decaffeination process of decaf coffee beans.

Hendon Regenerative Culture Garden HRCG

Hendon Regenerative Culture Garden (HRCG) is three plots within Corporation Road allotments, Hendon, Sunderland, Tyne & Wear. When we took over the garden in November 2016 two of the plots had already been combined into one, a large pond (60 M2) had been dug and extensive decking had been installed. We initially planted five apple trees which have since been trained as bushes, then in 2018 another ten trained as cordons, with another ten cordons added in 2019.

We intend to show how wildlife, wildflowers and food production can be combined in one garden with the additional benefit of it being a beautiful space for the community to relax in. We envisage holding food related community events, discussions about permaculture, and also offering a space for mindfulness/meditation sessions. We hope to encourage the community to save & drop-off domestic food waste which will be composted on site.

April 2018 we’ve taken-on the third plot within the same allotments where we are developing the garden as a forest garden using the Back to Eden method. We intend to add a poly tunnel to this garden, in which, apart from growing food there will be scope to grow wildflowers from seed to plant out in local parks or any other land we can get permission to do so; this will benefit the diversity of pollinators currently under threat both locally and globally. It is also envisioned that tree seeds can be scared for in pots until ready to plant out in the local area.

Harrys Eggs

Harry Hodgson wanted hens for his sixth birthday, and hens he got! Since then, Harry’s hens have been producing eggs, which, since around 1998, are 100% organic.

Harry was the driving force behind persuading his parents to convert the farm to Organic production. It started when he received a letter telling him that his hen food was no longer guaranteed not to contain any GM ingredients, and after shopping around he realised the only way he could guarantee this was to buy Organic hen food.

From an early age Harry realised that it was imperative for all his hens to have access to grass and to roam freely to get a high quality tasty egg. Despite many hens being labelled as “free range”, the only real way to ensure this is to keep the colony sizes small.

Be Loved Cacao – Wild Sea Women

At Be Loved Cacao, our main priority is to ensure that our Cacao has been sourced ethically and organically grown in Peru by farmers and communities which are being paid fairly for their work and crop. Our ceremonial grade cacao comes from the finest grade Criollo Bean, meaning it has had minimal processing, therefore not stripped of its natural superfood qualities and potency. Be Loved Cacao is the perfect alternative to coffee as it elevates your mood, increases focus and sparks your creativity.

My love of cacao lead me to create my own brand of ceremonial cacao which is named Be Loved Cacao. Beloved Cacao was created by the founder of Wild Sea Women CIC, Hayley Dorian.
