Did you know that a single plastic bag can take hundred to thousands of years to decompose completely? Yes, you heard that right.
When you opt for a reusable shopping bag, you're not just making a smart choice – you're making a difference. Instead of adding to the pile of single-use plastic bags that end up in landfills or floating in our oceans, you're investing in a sustainable solution that reduces waste and conserves resources.
It's a simple switch that packs a powerful punch for the planet. So, why not bring your own bag to your next food shop and join the movement towards a cleaner, greener future. That’s unless you choose to opt for one of our delicious handmade meals delivered straight to your door!

Looking to cut down on your energy usage at home? Why not try these easy tricks.
- Switch to energy-efficient light bulbs. LED bulbs, for example, use significantly less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs and have a longer lifespan, making them a cost-effective choice.
- Seal up any drafts around doors and windows in your home to prevent heat loss during the colder months and keep your home well-insulated year-round. With our unpredictable weather, this tip is sure to come in handy!
- Get into the habit of unplugging electronics when they're not in use. By doing so, you can save energy and lower your utility bills. It doesn't get simpler than that!
Planning meals not only helps streamline your week but also contributes to more sustainable choices. By mapping out your meals in advance, you can reduce food waste, minimise impulse purchases, and make more conscious decisions about the ingredients you use.

Ever thought of what you could do with your wasted coffee grounds? Look no further as we reveal to you some of our favourite tips and tricks when it comes to making the most out of your morning brew.
- Use a small amount as fertiliser, simply sprinkle the coffee grounds onto the soil surrounding your plants.
- Exfoliate your skin by adding water or coconut oil for a face or body scrub, or honey to exfoliate your lips!
- Compost for later! Don't want to use it now, no problem. Leave the coffee grounds outside in a compost container.
- Tenderise your meat by adding your favourite dry rub recipe and leave for 2 hours. This will result in a dark, crispy crust for your meat.
- Neutralise odours by popping the coffee grounds in a bowl in the fridge, or alternatively use old material to make a hanging portable odour absorber. Get as creative as you like!
