Our Mission
It’s simple…
To provide fantastic and sustainable organic and locally produced food delivered straight to the door. All our fruit and veg is from certified organic growers and all our other yummy produce has a local provenance. Wherever possible we support our local organic growers including Moss Brook, Dunham Massey Organics, Glebelands City Growers and Stockley Farm. Our aim is to minimise food miles, packaging and handle the produce as little as possible to ensure that when it reaches our customers it is the best it can be.
Here’s how it all began…
Dig was started by Beth and Alan Creedon whose combined knowledge of organic, locally produced food spans over ten years, including Unicorn Grocery, Manchester’s unique organic co-operative grocery in Chrolton.
In 2011 Dig was sold to Kirsty Vis – a passionate foodie. Having decided that there is more to life than an office Kirsty gave up her 15 year career in business advisory to take the helm at Dig, to continue to build on what makes Dig unique: our close relationship with local growers, Manchester’s sustainable food network and our relationship with our valued customers.
