Regather is working to open up pathways into horticulture and farming in Sheffield. As part of this work we want to hear from individuals and community groups who are serious about joining the next generation of urban farmers and market gardeners. Responding to our survey will help us make a stronger case and could perhaps take you one step closer …
At Regather, we’ve been working with local, family run dairy Our Cow Molly since June 2019. When we first started ordering from them we spent less than £500 per month, now we spend more than that every single week! Through us, over 600 units of Our Cow Molly milk makes its way to the people of Sheffield, half of that …
We’re living in an unprecedented moment in history, sitting on the edge of environmental and biodiversity collapse. COP26, the 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties, is next week in Glasgow. It’s one of the last chances for governments to come together to solve this crisis. At Regather, we understand that we can’t leave this down to governments alone, …
Some of you might be aware that back in November 2019 we launched a Crowdfunder campaign. We were rather pleased with the title ‘Sheffield Hedge Fund’ and it prompted quite a few smiles when people realised what type of hedge we were really interested in. We were thrilled to be able to have so many fantastic donors help us reach …
Here at Regather we like to champion things we believe in. For the veg box team that means three things: local, seasonal organic. Organic can mean many things but in the context of selling fruit and vegetables when we talk about organic we refer to the process of organic certification.

Welcome to the re-energised recipe branch of the blog! We’re planning to get lots of delicious missives out to you. Look out for recipes and foodie musings direct from our home kitchens or the box-packing room at Regather HQ.

Brexit has been dominating the headlines these last few months and like most people, Regather has been watching progress closely. Leaving the EU is likely to affect Regather and the products we offer in various ways; the greatest impact will be felt if we leave with no deal. In this worst case scenario, without a deal for trade, the UK would …
From 8 March 2019, Regather will be making a weekly veg box delivery to the University of Sheffield Students’ Union! The collection point is open to students, staff and visitors, and you can choose from UK only, or a plastic free box, as well as fresh bread from Sheffield’s Forge Bakehouse and lots of other local produce. The University of …
Jerusalem Artichokes: I think they’re delicious, nutty, sweet and a hint of earthiness. Not everyones favourite due to their, err, windy qualities. For some people this can mean they never seem to get into this tasty vegetable. For anyone with a sense of humour I’d say go for it they are an interesting winter flavour that grow well in the …
The Purple Sprouting Broccoli is back and I’m overjoyed it’ll be joining us in our veg boxes and kitchens regularly over the coming months. A beautiful and delicious winter treat, Purple Sprouting Broccoli offers leafy sanctuary in a winter sea of root veg. This is what it means to eat seasonally! RECIPE!! My hands down favourite PSB recipe is …
