1. Use your LOAF at the shops (Local, Organic, Animal-Friendly and Fair Trade) - 14 May 2006

   We have just joined a box scheme – something we have been meaning to do for ages! We have done a one-off order first of all to see what we get with the medium box and whether we’ll need smaller or larger. We’re in Hove and the box scheme is a local one: http://www.realfood-direct.com/index.html It has loads of other stuff too like cleaning products and ‘feminine hygiene products’ etc. so you could realistically do your whole shop from them. We’ll see what it’s like on Tuesday! I want to carry on buying bits and pieces from our corner shop though as they have just set up an organic section and I want to support them. I am really anti-Tesco (they have practically destroyed the town where I grew up by opening on the bypass when we already had 3 supermarkets in the town itself) and try to put others off buying there too! In London, Tesco was our only biggish food shop nearby (though I still avoided it as much as possible!) but now we have Co-op just down the road – yey!
