Goodery
Goodery | Organic grocery store that cares for people and the planet
Goodery is an online grocery marketplace, connecting local farmers, ethical businesses and conscious consumers, and all with zero emissions and as little waste possible. It started up in Norwich as a response to the needs of the community when The Good Host began supporting NHS staff during COVID-19 and the first lockdown.
Hughes and Friend

Despite the current circumstances, they can still help put the ‘special’ in your occasion, contact them to find out about how they have adapted to the new guidelines. And check their Instagram for offers. For example, this week, they have £25 ‘bubble bouquets’ available.
Sustainability Station
One-stop eco shop, Sustainability Station is based at 16 Exchange Street, Norwich, and can offer local delivery. The website is updated regularly with products but if there’s something you can’t spot, just give Elaine and the team a call and they will do their best to help. All local deliveries will come via Zedify, a local sustainable delivery service. Plus, throughout January, they are offering a free gift wrapping service so, if you want to send a gift to someone to let them know you’re thinking of them, just pop ‘giftwrap’ in the notes section of your order and they will do the rest.
Cocktail Canaries:
Fresh cocktails are available for local delivery: if you live within a 15-mile radius of Aylsham, NR11, order by 12pm for same day delivery every Thursday, Friday and Saturday. If you aren’t in the area covered, you can try the Nationwide range. Alternatively, save money on the 500ml postbox pouches that are available for Nationwide delivery, and are super easy to order. Choose from the Tropical Paloma, Jaffa Cake Negroni, Passion Fruit Martini or Honeycomb Old Fashioned. All are delivered via Royal Mail, through your door. Once you have finished your cocktail pouch, give it a quick rinse and pop it into your local postbox. The pouches get collected and sent to a super cool company that recycles them for us- turning them into things like….park benches, bins and planters for your town centres!
