What Do You Need For The Perfect Picnic?

Did you know that July is National Picnic Month? That’s right - one more excuse to enjoy great food, great company and the outdoors on those warm summer days. (As if we needed one!) If that sounds good, all you need to do next is to think of a location -- we’ll help you take care of everything else.

Once you’ve chosen your favourite park or quiet spot in the countryside, you’ll probably start to wonder what to take on a picnic. From picnic rugs to eco friendly food containers and picnic hampers stuffed with delicious British produce, we can help you choose your picnic essentials for a lovely day out.

Let’s start thinking about the important stuff first: what food to take on a picnic. A cheese hamper or charcuterie hamper should hit just the right spot if you’re heading out with a larger group of friends - especially when paired with a bottle of wine. If you’re heading out with your little ones, we recommend all natural fruit and vegetable snacks and refined sugar free treats to keep their tummies happy and full (and their energy to more manageable levels!).

A thoughtful gesture for anyone suffering from food allergies, intolerances or following a particular diet would be to surprise them with a selection of free from or vegan foods that they can enjoy. A sandwich made with some of the nation’s best vegan meats and cheeses, for example, would go a really long way for a friend with a plant-based diet.

As far as picnicware is concerned, we’ve listed some of our favourite reusable containers and food wraps below, that both look good and feel good to use, as they’re designed for minimum impact on the environment compared to single use plastics.

Meet our top 5 picnic accessories:
