Thursday 29th November saw the launch of Dig-in’s Community Share offer.
The launch was held at the Bruntsfield Hotel and over 150 people turned up to find out more and show their support for the community run greengrocer. Shares were for sale on the night and everyone got the chance to hear guests Lesley Riddoch and Pete Ritchie from Whitmuir farm talk about local produce, community and working together to make a difference.

Not only were we blown away with the amount of the support on the night, our friends On Twitter have also been spreading the good word about Dig-In too.
If you’re stuck for Christmas ideas, why not invest in an amazing local sustainable business promoting healthy eating @DigInBruntsfiel
