Congratulations to our DAY 2 ADVENT winner Julie Tift (East Sussex).

You can't beat fresh, homemade soup. But we don't always have the time or the ingredients to hand to make it when we crave it most. And for that reason having a few pots of Tideford Organics soup in the fridge is the perfect answer. With most pots being gluten- wheat- and some dairy-free as well as containing no GM products, they really are a good 'comfort' food to keep to hand - especially as the nights draw in and the temperature plummets.

Congratulations to our DAY 1 ADVENT winners: Joanne Layden (Worksop) - Keira Dempsey (Woking) - Philip Thomas Boyle (Tadworth).
