Giveaway: Belvoir Fruit Farms Hamper (worth £63.00)

I have a lovely giveaway for you to enter this morning – a hamper from Belvoir Fruit Farms, worth £63.00. Belvoir Fruit Farms are based at the Belvoir Castle Estate in Lincolnshire . They make cordials, pressés and fruit crushes from their home and have been doing so since the seventies. They use fresh flowers, as well as fruits and spices and blend them with spring water.  The cordials are lovely and thick and are packed full of flavour, you can also use them in dressings and sauces – my favourite it the Apple, plum and cinnamon cordial. The Blueberry and blackcurrant cordial packs a punch, too.

Belvoir have recently launched a range of five new products with an English garden theme and to tie in with this would like to offer one of my readers the chance to win a hamper filled with Belvoir drinks along with a  Sophie Conran gardener’s journal and matching enamel mug.

Belvoir Fruit Farms

Entry is via the Rafflecopter form below. The competition is UK only and further terms and conditions can be found on the form, too.

Good luck!

  104. The good old fashioned (and free) blackberry. Pick it from anywhere in the uk along hedgerows, turn it into jam, yum.
    Why spend money on fruit in the summer when there’s a bucketload to pick each day.

  242. Strawberries…in cakes, covered in chocolate, on their own or with sugar and cream…I really don’t care – I just love them!

  247. Damsons. Not many people have tried them and theyre delicious. Great for making jam with, too!

  252. Blackberry’s, Why you ask? well because they are 100% free fruit. No PYO farms, no plastic supermarket containers at £1.99 for a punnet. Just get on your push bike (no fuel miles) with a container. Head to the country and they are there in hedge rows. As much as you can find and be bothered to pick.

  275. I WOULD say wild blackberries, wrestled from the brambles and eaten straight away – but I think they may be classed as Autumn. So for Summer, British strawberries while they are in season.
