SAVOURING THE SEASON:
PLUMS

Plums are the last stone fruit to arrive, signalling that summer's final stretch is underway.

Few products speak to who we are quite like Marc's Reine Claudes: reaching this level of quality means leaving the fruit on the tree until the very last moment, and that final week of ripening is as critical as it is risky: if rain hits, Marc could lose the bulk of his crop. It's a risk most growers avoid by picking early, under-ripe. Marc doesn't: his commitment to flavour means only selling fruit that's been allowed to reach its true peak. We get two varieties from him: first the Dorée, super syrupy and sweet, then the De Bavay, closer to a greengage.

Mirabelle plums from Bruno also arrive from Toulouse area, with an exceptional amount of sugar. This is a very short season, so get them on your menus now.

We also have Red Plums from Domenico, who grows our peaches: more crisp, with a delicate floral note. Dalmassine are tiny and sapphire-skinned, the classic choice for compotes and jams, softening with barely any heat. And this is only the start of the European plum season, with British Damsons having just started and Victorias coming soon.

Plums' beauty lies as much in versatility as variety: red plums sit as happily beside Pecorino Sardo, while Reine Claudes are just as good on toast (peppery rocket, sheep's ricotta, Alma sourdough) as in a tart with Sicilian Tuono almonds and Amalfi lemon, but their season is short, and they need to be used quickly before September arrives and takes them away.

Go Deeper

See all

We exist to fix the food system.

People are more cut off from the origins of their food than ever. This makes flavour, nutrition and farming practices that protect the planet, almost impossible to find.

By working directly with growers, we create a more sustainable way forward for farming. By giving everyone the tools to understand the power of our food choices, we empower everybody to become drivers of change.

Now is the time for action. Join the food system revolution.
