exeter brewery
WEEK: 15 - 21/03/24

Since changing its name from Topsham & Exminster Brewery in 2008, The Exeter Brewery has expanded ever more rapidly. The company brews everything on-site in Cowley Bridge Road, Exeter, and is particularly notable for its commitment to sustainable transport; in 2009 a joint venture with TOWT/Fairtransport saw The Exeter Brewery begin wind-powered exports to France, its first shipment travelling from Brixham harbour aboard the 150-foot Square Rigger, the Tres Hombres. Since then, the Brewery has sent shipments from Brixham, Plymouth and Falmouth, and sales continue to grow.

TICKLEMORE CHEESE DAIRY
WEEK: 22 - 28/03/24

Ticklemore Cheese Dairy, based in Totnes, Devon, are the producers of three artisan blue cheeses; award winning Devon Blue made with cow’s milk, Beenleigh Blue made with sheep’s milk, and Harborne Blue, from goat’s milk. Unsurprisingly, Devon Blue is one of our champion cheeses here at Greendale, with it being featured in several of our recipes owing to its buttery rich flavour, yet moist and crumbly texture.
Robin Congdon first established Ticklemore as one of the first pioneers in the 1970s to revive the tradition of milking sheep in the UK. He started off with thirty sheep on a smallholding near Exeter and initially produced yoghurt and soft cheeses which he took to London once a week to sell. In October 2023, Ben Harris and his wife Laura became Directors of Ticklemore Cheese Ltd, after Robin took a back seat. Ben started in the cheese dairy in 2002 and has worked in all areas of the cheese dairy since, from pasteurising the milk to progressing to main cheesemaker in charge of the dairy.
In a bid to make the most of the dairy’s byproducts, the liquid whey produced from cheesemaking goes to a local Pig farm, where breeds such as Gloucestershire Old Spots enjoy their daily portion of whey from Ticklemore.

baboo gelato
WEEK: 29/03/24 - 04/04/24

Westcountry wonders Baboo Gelato make ice cream that’s out of this world! A customer favourite for good reason, their artisanal ice cream is carefully prepared on-site in Rampisham, Dorset, using succulent fruit and local organic milk.

Baboo Gelato was set up in 2015 by Annie Hanbury, a trained gelatiere, who wanted to combine her passion for making seriously good ice cream with the glut of fabulous ripe fruit on her doorstep. After years of living abroad, Annie and her family moved to the beautiful rolling hills behind the Dorset seaside town of Bridport and became the proud owners of a smallholding with an overflowing and abandoned market garden. Annie decided she wanted to put the heart and soul back into ice cream making. She missed her children’s excitement and wonder as they chose from a gorgeous array of colourful and scrumptious flavours. Baboo Gelato wants to recapture this magic.

BOO CHI KOMBUCHA
WEEK: 12 - 18/04/24

Boo Chi use traditional far eastern methods to create real, live, whole kombucha - a tangy, effervescent tea-based drink that's been consumed for centuries. Its popularity has surged recently due to its potential health benefits, primarily its rich probiotic content. It's a natural, tasty, and enjoyable way to support your gut microbiome and makes a great addition to any health-conscious diet.
After taking a break from her acting career, founder Eaoifa set out with a dedicated and passionate team to create her own kombucha named Boo Chi, (Boo being the drink and Chi for the energy it gives you) after trying it during her time working in Sri Lanka.
Here at Greendale, we love Boo Chi because all of their ingredients are purchased from local organic suppliers, their products are never pasteurised (killing the good bacteria) and they never sterile filtrate (remove the good bacteria).
