Comfrey tea

June 14th, 2009 Sarah Posted in Environment, Garden | 2 Comments »

No, not for you, or me, it’s for the garden. I grow my own comfrey and have 2 clumps now, accidentally as I meant to move it and obviously left a bit of root in the old spot. Ooops.

The price you see is the price you pay.

June 11th, 2009 Sarah Posted in Business News | No Comments »

No surprisingly hefty shipping charges at the last stage of checkout and no handling fees.

No unexpected costs at all, it’s all transparent and open, the price of each item at Ethics Trading is what you pay, regardless of destination.  Yes, anywhere in the world but bear in mind any order placed using free shipping will be sent by the cheapest means possible which means second class or standard parcel post within the UK and surface mail for overseas.

What shall we do with Red?

June 3rd, 2009 Sarah Posted in Garden, Home | No Comments »

As you know by now we have 3 rescued ex battery hens living in our back garden. They’ve been lovely to have and we’ve had regular eggs from them.

Now one is not laying at all – but I’m not bothered about her and I’m happy to carry one as a non laying passenger, after all this isn’t a commercial egg production arrangement. One lays an egg pretty much every day, she has the odd day off but again, that’s fine.
