Oh September!

It's our favourite time of year here at Gull's. We've got beautiful produce in from and a variety of co-ops in Spain.

While we'll be losing strawberries (such a short season) - Scottish apples, and juicy stone fruit will keep us sweet.

September sees our (hopefully last) maintenance day of the year. If you've been following along, this is the one where we get our peanut butter grinder and deli counter ready to rock. We can't promise it'll be up and running by Tuesday but the shop will reopen then.

Keep it sweet!
