Natasha Steele
Bored of working in the city, Chief Juicer Natasha started to forage for ingredients around her allotment and turn them into cordials. To let the fruits’ true flavour shine, she used very little sugar and soon perfected her recipes. It wasn’t long until she found herself selling them at her local farmers market and demand grew. And so Urban Cordial was born. Once foraging got a bit too much, Natasha started to source her fruits direct from British farms, and only purchasing the surplus fruit that would otherwise go to waste. To date, Urban Cordial has helped to save over 45 tonnes of fruit
