It is the perfect place to go for an affordable gift for someone who is a little under the weather or for a natural remedy for life's little aches and pains. They even sell organic fruit and veg at a very reasonable price (a lot of items are cheaper here than in the supermarkets) So for a bit of friendly chat at advice, I can't recommend a better place.

Myraid Organics surprised me, both in terms of how big it actually is (I only expecting a tiny…read morelittle shop) & the product range that they stock; rather than limited range, it's more an all purpose little grocery shop with all sorts of food, toiletires, books & plenty of other bits & pieces. The whole store was nicely laid out & organised, the staff were lovely & very welcoming, also very patient in answering my questions (there were quite a few, I was rather excited by the store). My daughter was most impressed by the child sized shopping baskets that were stacked next to the regular sized ones - it was a thoughtful little touch. All the items that we purchased were of great quality, the fruit & veg were delicious & didn't last long at all, likewise the fruit & nut bars. The clear soaps that they sold, whose name I stupidly did not take note of, were wonderful - perfect for sensitive skin & smelled delightful. All in all, a wonderful store & excellent alternative to so many of the generic high street grocery shops.

Excellent shop and I would fully endorse Madeleine's view in all respects. For the first time ever…read moreI can do a weekly shop in an organic store, everything from fruit and vegetables through dairy, nuts and seeds to oils, tinned foods, supplements and treats. There is a refill service for household detergents etc., organic eggs (including duck eggs!) from local farmers, and some delicious foods (bhajis, soups) cooked on the premises. This isn't a store where you feel you need to have dedicated your life to Zen Buddhism or possess an encyclopaedic knowledge of auras and chakras just to pop in and pick up a jar of peanut butter and some pine nuts. Everyone is down-to-earth (no pun intended), helpful and 'normal' even the customers!

Moseley farmers market is an award winning market held in the central square of Moseley. I had been…read moremeaning to get down for months before I finally managed it this Saturday... And I wasn't disappointed. The market is exactly what you would want a medium to large sized market to be. Offering a huge range of locally sourced goods sold to you by the actual producers of the items, you can get most things you would need to stock up the fridge, freezer and cupboards (with a good amount of locally made crafty things too). It's in a pretty setting and has a lovely community feel to it. We managed to find parking in the small shopping area just up from St Mary's Row at around 9:15am, but parking could be a bit of a nightmare if you were getting here later. The square area offered braces of pheasants for £6, cheese, wine, condiments and artisan food products and the High Street area (which we hadn't realised was there until we were leaving - D'oh) offers more of a crafty element. We had a nice little poke around the stalls and chatted to many of the business owners about their products and they were more than happy to talk to us and advise where the items are made and the ingrediants that go into them. We got some lovely locally made fizzy red wine (Did you know there are vineyards in the Midlands?) for £10 a bottle, some hot sauce from Pip's and was very tempted by cakes and unusual scotch eggs... We are definitely planning to go back. If you haven't been, you must go. Get there early if you're planning to drive but the buses down to Moseley drop you off right in the thick of the action, do that might be the best idea.

Moseley Farmers Market takes over the village green every fourth Saturday of the month, and holds…read morethe perfect little community vibe for all who love to indulge in fresh food and organic produce. I've been attending the market for over three years now, and I rarely miss a month. The stalls always draw me back when I'm needing a healthy variation to my diet, and the price range is perfect value for money. Specifically regarding the Beans & Leaves stall, which sells a wide range of both coffee beans and loose teas. Most of these infusions rarely reach the £4 mark for 100g, which results in more than enough tea for two for several months! The tea stall holder himself is a bubbly yam yam who'll immediately strike up a conversation. It's just a shame that his stall is on the windiest part of Moseley, meaning that a lot of his tea ends up at the other side of the market! But of course, on first visit, you'll want to sample everything. Whether this be jam, ostrich burgers, bakery, alcohol or cheese (in fact, I highly recommend the Warwickshire Truckle), there's literally something for everyone. I've also tried a range of unlikely produces which sometimes appear at the market, such as a piece of fruit called a quince, and a green tea cake, both equally as delicious as the other. As a worthy winner of "best farmers market in the UK 2012", Moseley Farmers Market is a treasury to Birmingham and brings a tasteful locality to the streets of Moseley.

I really love farm produce; organic flavours are always more satisfying to my pallet when compared…read moreto other foods. The only problem is that they're always a lot more expensive. Although Box Tree's is only contained within a tiny room, this Farm shop packs a great surprise full of eagerly tempting treats. I was especially taken by the store's wide selection of fruit cakes, and couldn't resist purchasing a Mead fruit cake (which is something that I'd never tried before). I'm very glad I bought it, because the flavour was absolutely delicious. There's also a selection cherry cakes and other mouthwatering handmade desserts sold inside, which all equally looked amazing. For an alternative, fresh answer to the supermarket, Box Tree's is definitely the place to stop by. Eggs, jam, spreads, fruit, you name it, they've got it. I also highly recommend the ginger spread they sell here for £2.30, which adds great taste to any toasted breakfast. The only issue I had in the shop was getting someone to serve me. The owner also works in the cafe behind, and jumps from one shop to here when a customer rings the bell. I rang the bell, but unfortunately nobody came for about 10 minutes.

Despite the place being mad busy, the staff were still cheery and polite, and the service was fast. My 'snack size' steak burger was tasty, although I expected a bit more for the price of £4. My wife's soup of the day (curried butternut squash) was very nice and filling, even the smaller serving. I'd recommend their hot punch. The shop downstairs has a very wide range of foodstuffs, and the fresh produce looked very good.

All the produce is certified organic and varies from week to week depending what's in season on the farm. I love this idea - firstly that you're eating seasonally and having to think about ways to prepare your vegetables, but also because I think it's pretty reasonable for getting organic produce to door. David at the farm has been very helpful with our deliveries which arrive every Thursday. You can check online what you'll be recieving as well. For £10.85 we'll be eating Robinta potatoes, spinach, sweetcorn, red kabacha squash, salad pack, cherry tomatoes and romanesco cauliflower. You can also add individual items to your delivery as well as pantry items, soups, home-made soft drinks, wines and beers. Love it.
