Here's why we love organic farming:
- It helps reduce the use of artificial fertilisers and pesticides.
- It encourages Mother Nature's eco-system to flourish
We started with a liking for sandals, tie dyed T-Shirts and a belief that food should only be grown as nature intended. Convinced that There there must be people who think the same way, we set out to find them. Some people called us crazy butt that didn't stop us. Today, lots of people share our beliefs and we continue to work with passionate people all over the world to produce some of the best organic food there is.
We're not crazy - just unshakably committed

Mixed reviews in our house
Im reviewing this product because I got a free sample from Ocado. I quite liked them but my wife and children didnt so much as they were lacking flavour. Not sure we would purchase again
Awful dates
I eat a lot of dates, tried these as my normal dates are out of stock, these are nothing but dry empty husks. Never again.
Lovely Organic Dried Dates
These are delicious organic dried dates and I could easily devour the whole pack in one go - but I dont! They are slightly drier than those of some other brands but I personally prefer them to the very sticky ones and anyway there is a bit of a mix in the bag.
not bad but
Im reviewing this product because I got a free sample from Ocado. This is not bad for the price but as other reviewers mentioned this is a bit dry and not buttery. I feel like lack of flavour. I would not buy it again.
Great Snack
I’m reviewing this product because I got a free sample from Ocado. Great as a snack and organic too, at a good price.
