This year, why not be extra clever with your Christmas shopping and give consider a more unusual present for some your friends? Here are some ideas below:

A River Nene Organic Food Box
I'm already a great fan of the organic veg boxes from River Nene. Have you got a member of your family or a friend who you can think of who would like one? There is a huge range of choices from a Mini Box at just £8.35 (suitable for one person for a week) to a Large Box at £15.95 (suitable for 4+ people for a week). You can either just give the one box, or even better - arrange to give them one every week or every month during the year what a great present, which lasts for the whole year! Delivery is included. What a great healthy present.

So this year, if you're looking to give something a bit more interesting than socks, ring James and Ruth at River Nene and tell them who you'd like to send a veg box to either for delivery in the New Year, or if you re quick enough, for Christmas! They will organise the rest.

Just call them on 01664 823454 or visit their website for more information, www.rivernene.co.uk

You can choose whichever box you'd like to give, top up with any extras you want to add (fruit, milk, juice, chocolate, wine and more) and River Nene will deliver free to their door. You'll even be sent a gift card to personalise with your own Christmas message. Even if your friend doesn t live near you, one of their sister farms around the UK will probably be local to them.
