One of the reasons that we donate 50% of our profits to charity is that we think giving is inherently good. It makes everyone feel good, it helps to build community among stakeholders, it means that money also flows instead of concentrating in one place...
As you know we donate 50% of our profits to charity - every piece you purchase supports The Fire Fighters Charity and Barefoot College International.
And giving doesn't have to be about money - it can be advice, a hug, an introduction, a shared meal, a darned sock.
So in this season of giving we would love for you to share your best story of giving! Was it a gift? A favour? What impact did it have? The more life-changing the better. We want to help you celebrate the wonderful people who really know how to give. They are the real influencers. They are the heroes.
Another way we can give? We can support businesses that we love by sharing them with you:
Toast Ale - They are, like us, both a Social Enterprise and a Certified B Corp, they have pioneered making beer from waste bread and we make their tap handles!
Cook Food - Food made like you would at home, but frozen and ready to save you when you don't have time! One of the founding UK B Corps and seriously inspiring when it comes to how they build and manage their team.
Divine Chocolate - Kresse's favourite chocolate, fairtrade, a social enterprise, a B Corp and the only chocolate brand that is co-owned by its cocoa farmers.
Wuka - They replace plastic-riddled disposable pads & tampons with the world’s most comfortable and sustainable period underwear, they also give free pairs to those in need!
Chateau Maris - We met these guys at a B Corp event in Amsterdam and we were buddies from that moment on! Their wine is organic, inspiring and always available at our farm!
Maison Mirabeau - This is a wine-making team so committed to regenerative viticulture that they helped found the Regenerative Viticulture Association - and they make our go to Rose.
Gaze Burvill - read more about this amazing furniture company and our collaboration!
Seep - If you have been to the farm you will have seen our wetland system... these compostable washing up sponges are fantastic and mean no microplastics!
Change Please - Change Please is an award-winning social enterprise tackling homelessness through the power of great tasting coffee. 100% of profits help people experiencing homelessness through their Barista Training Programme.
Mr. Organic - Great for store cupboard classics like beans and pesto, all organic, and a B Corp too!
