On this page, you will find a list of suppliers that are happy to supply Blackthorn and that have come highly recommended. Many are local suppliers (Oxfordshire and Bucks) and are happy to deliver to Blackthorn even for small orders. Others are happy to deliver, but as we are quite far away, they set higher minimum order charges. However, if we order collectively, meeting even high minimum order levels will be easily achieved. Not only may this cut down on uneccessary journeys, but also enable us to access excellent produce that otherwise we would not get access to.
Please feel free to contact us with your ideas/contacts, and we can add to the list.
