Do you want to discover exciting artisan products from across the UK and Europe every month, delivered straight to your door? Greenecobox does exactly that and it’s a really fun way to find out about niche and independent artisan businesses that are also ethical and eco-friendly.
Greenecobox also donates to two different campaigns/charities on your behalf with the purchase of each box. This month’s chosen projects are OneTreePlanted (one tree will be planted for you in Amazonia) and you’ll receive a certificate of proof in your box), and €4 will be donated to Amazon Watch to help protect the indigenous tribes of the Amazon rainforests.
Let’s see what’s inside this month’s Bee Happy Box from Greenecobox!
Compagnie du Miel Madagascar – Lychee Honey
This jar of rare honey is very special indeed and comes from the Lychees that are found in Madascagar alongside beehives. The fusion of lychee with honey is a truly tantalising flavour that works well with Goat’s Cheese and a slice of brioche for an indulgent breakfast.
Laux Mango Curry Mustard
From Germany, there’s a jar of Mango Curry Mustard, something that I’ve never seen before! If you like sweet and sour food with a kick of spice, this is the mustard for you to try as it has a fruity sweetness from the Mango, entwined with a distinctive spiciness of real mustard. Try a little with your favourite meat and veggie dishes, as well as in vinaigrettes for salads.
Marc & Kay Organic Hot Chocolate Mayan Jewel – Hazelnut Flavour
Also from Germany, this tub of Organic Hot Chocolate from the artisans Marc and Kay is bursting full of flavour. The fine taste of high-quality chocolate works well with a subtle Hazelnut sensation. Just add warm milk or plant milk alternative and you have a comforting cup of hot cocoa to warm you up!
Folie Verte Green Mandarin Soap
Reduce your plastic waste consumption with a solid bar of soap from the French artisans Folie Verte. Their popular Green Mandarin Soap is made from natural and organic ingredients such as Shea Butter, Olive Oil and a medley of fresh essential oils. Suitable for all skin types, it smells amazing.
Life In A Bag – Grow Mint Cube
How cool this is bio cube of cork?! Life In A Bag specialises in easy to grow kits that help you grow herbs at home. This cube contains a magnet and requires just 3 tablespoons of water every 3 days to kickstart the germination of mint.
To round off the box, Greenecobox has included some extras; two tea bag samples from Higher Living Organic in Morning Mojo and White Tea Strawberry, and a box of delicious French artisan biscuits – yum!
