I had the great pleasure of meeting one of these four allotment-holders today, and what a joy it was - it’s easy to see why they love their little patches of green so much. If you’re curious to know more about what having an allotment entails, grab a copy of our latest issue. From the physical and mental health benefits, to the bumper crops, we dare you not to be tempted.

When .photos came to us with the idea for a piece on allotments, we hopped (carrot-stealing Peter Rabbit style) at the chance. Between her beautiful photographs, the heartwarming accounts of four very different allotment-holders, and the ensuing recipes inspired by their hauls, we’re delighted with the results.

Today we papered Saffron Walden with our autumnal issue and it was great to see so many of our lovely stockists, who always give us the loveliest welcome. All while dodging seasonal rain clouds, of course.

“If you build it, they will come.”

So we did. And you did! This issue we’re celebrating turning 3 years old and using our pages, as we always do, to shine a light on our community, our businesses and our people. As we can’t do any of what we do without you, it’s really happy birthday to you all!

Issue 13 can be found in Bishop’s Stortford NOW. Next stop, Saffron Walden.

Need a simple and comforting dinner - it appears we do 🍂- that can be brought together easily but still feels a little bit luxurious? Creamy Tomato and Walnut Pasta on p58 of our current issue ticks all the boxes and is a perfect midweek option now the kids are back to school. Thanks Mabel!

Teddy about town.

This issue, four-legged contributor extols the virtues of Saffron Walden from a doggo’s perspective. From paw-friendly products to warm welcomes from shops and eateries, Teddy’s dogged (sorry) research makes for a handy resource for pawrents everywhere. This issue, while stocks last.

Sing when you’re winning.

Trained singer and singing teacher Sara Feldmann Brummer extols the many virtues of choirs and group singing in this issue of The Bish. If you’re interested in finding a group near you, pick up one of the few remaining copies in our stockists around Stortford and Saffron Walden.
