Homegrown ingredients for flavoursome meals

Ginger Snap moved on to a North Cumbrian working farm in 2020 with the sole intention of reducing their impact on the environment as much as possible. Growing many of their own herbs on-site, there are a bounty of ingredients in their hedgerows such as sloes, brambles, crab apples and damsons, and the surrounding woods are rife with wild garlic, primrose and mushrooms. The Ginger Snap family also dry, pickle, ferment and preserve as much of their produce as possible to use out of season, minimising their waste hugely.

If you consider yourself to be environmentally conscious and are passionate about finding more planet-friendly suppliers for your wedding day, consider the incredibly talented Ginger Snap – enthusiastic about both food and the environment. Less transportation. Less refrigeration. More flavour.
