The Organic Farm Shop, Pickering

They provide one of the widest selections of organic produce in Yorkshire including locally grown vegetables, fruit, meat and eggs, even toiletries, from their shop in Pickering.

They’ll sell you, as far as possible, exactly what you want. No waste, no extra cost, and just a compostable paper bag for packaging. One chilli? One chilli it is. 100g mushrooms? No problem.

Unicorn Grocery – Based in Chorlton, South Manchester, Unicorn offers an unbeatable range of affordable, fresh and wholesome food with an emphasis on organic, fair-trade and local produce. Our focus is on ingredients for tasty, interesting and really affordable cooking; produce that nourishes and isn’t laden with huge amounts of sugar, salt and additives.

 The food we choose to eat not only affects our health but in many ways shapes our whole world. From our unrivalled choice of organic fruit & veg to our daily fresh bread, ever-expanding deli range, organic alcohol and store cupboard staples, we aim to cultivate stronger connections between our food, its producers, and all of us who eat it.

Paired with our values, our quality and competitive pricing have set us apart from the competition, and made us one of the UK’s largest and most successful wholefood groceries – we’re now the size of a metro-format supermarket. In 2016 we were named the UK’s ‘Best Independent Retailer’ by the Soil Association and in 2017 won ‘Best Food Retailer’ at the BBC’s Food & Farming awards.

We’re a ‘bricks and mortar’ store, i.e. we just trade in the shop itself, rather than online. As a workers’ co-operative the shop is owned by people who work in it, and we have created the kind of place we want to shop in ourselves. We hope you enjoy it too.

Organic North Wholesalers is a co-operative formed by a group of northern organic businesses in the early 1990s and remains member owned. Despite our relatively low profile, we have supplied millions of £s worth of organic vegetables to box schemes for many years. We are the longest established and largest organic fruit and vegetable wholesaler in Greater Manchester, the North West and beyond, supplying businesses in Lancashire, Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Cumbria and Scotland. We are based at the Smithfield Wholesale Market in East Manchester, a hub connected by chilled overnight transport to all the horticultural areas of the UK. Our registered name is Organic 2000 Limited but we feel that our trading name, Organic North Wholesalers, describes our business much better.

 Our aims are to support regional growers wherever possible and the independent organic movement. Organic North Wholesalers has always been Soil Association registered and has close links with organic growers across the North and wider UK, supported by European and global imports when absolutely necessary. We pride ourselves on paying growers on time and try to promote seasonal surpluses.
