some inspiring people, companies and organisations

---

Riverford are employee-owned and are one of the few B-corp companies in the UK, meaning that they have built sustainability into every aspect of their operation. 

Their veg box brings joy into our lives every week - amazing taste, almost no plastic, and a brilliant ordering process that is completely flexible and easy peasy via their app or online.

Hand-made fresh bouquets of UK flowers (where possible) or from our close neighbours, delivered by bicycle, electric vehicle or public transport. Brilliant.

This amazing company brings us coffee, chocolate, sugar and cocoa by sailing ship from South America every year, stopping off in Portugal for some beautiful organic olive oil, and then Noirmoutier for the world's best salt. 

The quality and taste is seriously good, and considering the carbon-neutral voyage, prices are very reasonable.

We chose Triodos for our bank account because they invest in a huge range of companies and charities making positive change in the world, including renewable energy and community charities.

Triodos is not so well known here in the UK, but it is a huge and very well established European bank.  

They also have brilliant customer service, and a fair and transparent fee charging - you don't get stung with surprise fees and costs, as is often the case with the other banks.

London Kitchen Deliveries is run by two brilliant people and are based just near us in South East London, but deliver nationally.

We've been ordering from them for years. Brilliant wholesale prices - but you do have to stock up. We cub together with 3 or 4 households and easily get to the minimum £350.l
