With the success of our newest product, Firepot compostable expedition food, I got a bit excited about the range of greener brands we stock and the direction the outdoor industry is taking. Here our some of our favourite leave no trace products and brands.
Anything you buy on this list will have an extremely low or positive effect on the environment. Many of them make large donations to environmental charities, don’t use any plastic in production or products and even power their offices with renewable electricity.
Leave no Trace with Firepot Foods – “Delicious, nutritious, dehydrated, slow-cooked meals inspired by our travels.”
Firepot Foods are a company from Dorset which began just three years ago. They found it so difficult to find a lightweight meal that was delicious, nutritional and natural so they decided to make their own. And they did. In a barn… Three years on and they have a full range of tasty meals which offer great nutritional benefits.
Planning your DofE Expedition Food can be confusing if you haven’t done it before. If you are moving on from Bronze to Silver or Gold I hope the following advice will be useful too. I have put together a few thoughts to help and some questions to ask yourself to help in your planning.
