Help For The Homeless

We are asking for your help!

As the weather appears to be getting even colder, our thought's turn to the homeless. The people who spend every minute of every day on the streets.

We want to help, we are asking you to get in touch with us, to tell us about any homeless shelters or charities that you may know. We are happy to donate some of our delicious soup to a charity dedicated to helping the homeless. It's only small gesture but hopefully it will get them through, or help them to get through a cold and bitter night. Of course, each pot needs hot water adding to it which is why this would suit a soup kitchen or any shelter that has kitchen fascities. We are asking for your help because even if we check online they don't always give you this information.

Any thoughts anyone?

Do You Want To Build A Snowman?

The snow has both its ups and its downs, of course the ups being the kids can have hours of outdoor fun making their very own Olaf. And the downs, well the fact that it literally does take hours… in the freezing cold. Can you think of anything worse than a standing in the cold with numb fingers and toes? We can… and that's standing in the cold and being hungry! Well… that is why we are here to help, whilst the little ones are off making snow angles and maybe your partners are too, why not indulge yourself with a warm pot of Tomato and Basil soup whilst you supervise. It'll keep the hunger at bay as well as warming your hands. No need to thanks us, that what we are here for.

Hello Heat Wave......

Have you seen the weather forecast for this weekend, it's going to be hot... hot... with a slice chance of it being hot!
We think it's going to be perfect weather for sitting in the garden with a pot of Tomato and Basil soup in one hand and chunky piece of bread in the other, with your feet in the kids paddling pool. Why? Just because you can, and the sun is the best excuse there is.

Schools out for summer!

So the end of term is fast coming, for some lucky people it is already here!
Do you have any plans during your time off?
Why don't you take advantage of this glorious weather and take a picnic down to your local National Trust park, but don't forget to pack your hopper pots.
You could even recycle your empty hopper pots and do some gardening, they are the perfect pots to grow different herbs in!

Just check out our website for all our tasty and healthy products.

Half Term Adventures!

Keeping the kids entertained over half term can be quite a struggle... especially as the weather has taken a downward spiral!

Don't let the rain stop you from heading on adventures - grab your wellies, coat and an umbrella and you're ready to head out into the great outdoors. Whether you're thinking of hiking up a hill, exploring the local countryside or visiting a farm... just get the kids outside and into the fresh air, just remember to keep your bellies full, as you don't want any angry/hungry kiddies throwing a tantrum. 

Take Grasshopper with you, our delicious soups will help keep you warm and fill you up when hunger calls! Our petite Hoppers are perfect to fit in your backpack without taking up too much space - remember to take along a flask of hot water so you can tuck in whenever you want!

Picnic Perfect

The sun is shining, the temperatures are high, this calls for one thing... a picnic.

With the weather being so glorious, it would be silly to miss out on the sunshine! Whether you make it a family affair or strictly friends only, getting together and laying on the grass with food and drink is a great way to relax, have fun and soak up the sun.

You know what the perfect picnic food is... a delicious pot of tomato & basil soup.

The countdown to summer is on!

The countdown to summer is on... and before we know it we will all be jetting off on our holidays! It's an exciting thought, until you realise you're running out of time to get your body beach ready. 

Exercise and diet are essential... regular workouts will help you not only lose weight but tone up, where eating healthier/dieting will help you drop the pounds. 

Regular exercise is key. Not all of this has to be done in the gym, you can do it in the comfort of your own home with a fitness DVD, or if the weather is fine a jog in the local park will also work! Get yourself into the outdoors... exercising the park will get you out into the fresh air, plus it's free.

Eating the right foods can be a tough one. We all like to indulge in chocolates or biscuits, but it's always the case of "just one more" - let's be honest, it's never just the one. Cutting back your calories is a great way to lose weight, simply restrict your calorie intake and choose healthier foods that are filling... our Hopper Pots do just that! They are small in calories but big in taste and flavour. So, instead of going to the local sandwich shop, have a delicious pot of our soup instead! 

What are you waiting for... the countdown has begun!

Back-country Skiing

Photograph by Richard Hallman

The ski season is upon us! There's nothing better the gliding down the snowy slopes on a clear day, but what about back-country skiing? It's a little more extreme and dangerous but this is exactly what skier Tommy Ellingson did, who is seen here launching off a jump at 8,000 feet on the White River Glacier!
