Ethical Produce
We believe in helping create a fairer food system for everybody. We have made a real effort to get to know our suppliers, creating a supply chain made up of family farms, co-operative wholesalers as well as local artisan creators – All promoting the love and sharing a common value.
As well as being entirely single use plastic free, our products are also either Organic, Fair trade, Cruelty free and always sourced as locally as possible.
Fairly Sourced, Fairly Priced
The issue of exclusivity within the eco movement is close to our hearts. We grew up on the lower income end of society and we understand first hand how difficult it can be to “do your bit” when on a budget.
Our natural environment is not cheap, in fact it’s the most valuable thing we have. Whilst this is now a widley accepted fact, the gap in the standards of living within our society continues to get worse.
As a small independent business, we are fully aware that we simply don’t have the spending power to match the low prices of Big Business. But to do what we can, we make an extra effort to keep our margins as low as possible, to keep things as affordable as possible.
We also offer discounts which we run on a personal/discretionary basis for anybody within a lower income bracket who feels they could benefit. Please get in touch to find out more.
