Win a £40 Clearspring Goodie Bag with the Organic Trade Board (CLOSED)
This organic September I am delighted to have teamed up with the Organic Trade Board and have a fabulous organic hamper from one of my favourite brands – Clearspring to giveaway.
This year to celebrate organic food and its benefits including better taste, more sustainable farming practices as well as happier free range animals the Organic Trade Board are asking what organic foods make you happy as part of their Feed Your Happy Campaign.
I feel far better eating foods that I know have a lower impact on the environment, eggs laid by hens who have access to the outside and sunlight are more nutritious as well as having glorious golden yolks. A ripe juicy peach that I can sink my teeth into without worrying about pesticide residues in its skin. I could go on and on but my overriding feeling is that food is something that should be celebrated and enjoyed with every bite, so lets eat the best possible quality we can – for the taste, our health and for the planet?
For a chance to win the scrumptious organic goodies from Clearspring pictured above simply leave a comment on the blog, via the Gleam widget telling me what feeds your happy!
For great competition karma please share images of the organic food that makes happy on social using #FeedYourHappy
