Living it up organically?

Going organic is not just about food – it a better way of life. The organic ethos is synonymous with sustainable living – it is not just caring for ourselves and family, but caring for others and for the planet too.

Living Organically can also be fun!

Whether it is buying local organic produce, growing your own, visiting an organic farm or going on an Organic Holiday, we encourage you to get involved,  join a local organic club or association, get an allotment and help yourself towrds a planet friendly – planet lifestyle.

Buying organic local food gives you:

  • Food you can trust. Knowing where your food comes from allows you to eat with confidence.
  • A great taste experience. Eat your own organically grown or locally produced organic food
  • Fresh, seasonal produce. Light foods in summer and more filling in winter – get in step with the season’s delights!
  • Benefits your local environment. Local food means fewer food miles, less packaging and a living countryside.
  • Makes you money go further. Creates more jobs and is good for the local economy.

Culinary Herb Garden Growing Kit

No culinary masterpiece is complete without fresh herbs, and what better way to get them than to grow your own.


This attractive terrarium garden contains five culinary herb seed packets:  basil,  sage,  dill,  cilantro and parsley.

Complete set includes a terrarium for herb growing, herb decals,  herb stakes,  natural gravel,  peat-based planting mixture,  perlite drainage mixture and growing instructions.

Garden is growing,  so that is a plus. It is very small for the price,  however.  We made another one of our own with different herb seeds which is doing
fine also.  The Herbs can be harvested, as and when,  needed for the cooking pot.  This encourages new herb leaf growth.  If any Herb needs replacing
more seeds can be planted.

I am very happy with my purchase of the herb garden growing kit.  All the seeds I have planted have sprouted and are growing very quickly.
They all appear to be strong and healthy.

You can place the seeds in the vegetable drawer of your refrigerator.
