| Choose suppliers with great tasting products for guilt-free eating – buying fair trade products ensure the producers of the food get a fair price, improved working conditions and a better future. Organic farmers use natural methods that are environmentally friendly, encourage wildlife and consider the whole eco system in their farming methods. |

OK, its time to come clean. Like Superman and Batman who try to save the planet, but are hiding secret identities… we at the Green Food Guide also have a day job. So while we love learning about great food, exciting recipes and new suppliers, we’ve still got to pay the bills.
And that is weddings. A wedding venue directory to be precise. And one thing we’ve learnt during our years of dealing with brides and grooms, is weddings are a very expensive business. And they’re not that eco-friendly either. But here’s some tips on how to have a “Greener” White Wedding. Buy organic wine and champagne from an Organic drink supplier. Ask your caterer to use local and organic food suppliers and cook with seasonal ingredients. Find a venue close to home to cut down on transport and encourage guests to share cars or provide a bus. Sign up with an Eco-friendly Gift list supplier or ask guests to plant a tree instead of getting you yet another toaster. Don’t send paper invites – get your stationery supplier to make an attractive online invite that you can email out to guests. Have your dress created by a local dressmaker or buy vintage. Have an eco-friendly honeymoon and explore somewhere in the UK you haven’t been. |
