Wat een fantastische service. Ik heb enkele relatiegeschenken besteld en een daarvan naar mijzelf laten sturen om te ervaren hoe het pakket eruit ziet. Er ontbrak iets, maar dat bleek mijn eigen fout te zijn geweest. Bij de bestelling heb ik dit over het hoofd gezien.Hoewel de andere pakketten al ingepakt klaar stonden voor verzending, zijn deze in overleg met Jurien aangepast en alsnog verzonden zoals ik ze graag had gewild.Dit geeft aan dat Food & Wood de klanten echt belangrijk vindt. Dank daarvoor.

Pamela thought extensively in advance so that she was perfectly prepared. The quality of both the service and the food was very good! For our wedding we had delicious and beautifully decorated drinks boards, exactly according to our wishes! We also asked if Food & Wood would also like to take care of the layout of our cake table. This was also very well done! Afterwards they neatly packed all the leftovers so that we could enjoy them in the evening, perfect! Unfortunately, we do not (yet) have a photo of the snacks when they were served, only of the neatly served leftovers and the cake table.

Great company, the delivery person reported twice that no one was home (without having been there) and the package was returned to sender. Food & Wood immediately sent another new package and luckily the delivery person came by. Thanks to Food & Wood's quick action, I still received the birthday gift on time. Really great service! Can recommend Food & Wood to everyone.

I gave the Primavera Borrelplank to my sister and her boyfriend, including the free Pinot Grigio wine that they received for free with the monthly promotion and they loved it. The description was ideal for putting the shelf together! :D

Last week was the national Week without Meat and of course we as an organization also participated in it. For example, colleagues could participate in an acquaintance Quiz and have a chance to win a vegetarian drinks box. In the end we had drawn 6 lucky winners. Pamela is happy to think along with you about possibilities and is very service-oriented. I can definitely recommend the drinks box. It was really a gift for my colleagues.

Ik ben op en top tevreden met Food & Wood, fantastische ervaring. Pamela heeft een prachtige grazing table voor onze intieme bruiloftsreceptie neergezet. De gasten waren erg onder de indruk. Ze durfde het eten bijna niet aan te raken, zo’n plaatje was het. Het eten was niet alleen mooi gepresenteerd, maar was ook heerlijk. Iedereen kwam al naar me toelopen voor Pamela’s info.Al met al, zeer tevreden dus!

Grazing Table Catering

Are you familiar with the buffet revolution worldwide: the grazing table? A grazing table is actually an extensive drinks board, but in the size of a complete table! It is a completely new experience, far removed from the traditional buffet as we know it in the Netherlands. It offers so much more and always has something for everyone (Yes, we dare to claim that!).

In the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it can be a challenge to find the perfect gift that is both personal and unique. After all, you want something that the recipient will truly appreciate and that will also enhance your own festive spirit. In this blog post, we explore the unique benefits of Food and Wood Christmas hampers. We hope to help you in your search for a special way to share love and warmth during this special time of year. Whether you are looking for a gift for a loved one or want to treat yourself, a Food and Wood Christmas hamper is the ideal solution. Let us take you on a journey into the world of personal and tasty Christmas hampers that will make for an unforgettable Christmas experience.

Quality of the Products at Food and Wood

At Food and Wood, the quality of the products offered is our top priority. In this section, we will delve deeper into the selection criteria for ingredients, the emphasis on artisanal products and the use of local suppliers. We will also highlight the importance of fresh, seasonal products.

Selection Criteria for Ingredients

The choice of ingredients is crucial to the quality of our Christmas hampers. At Food and Wood we have strict selection criteria to ensure that only the very best products make it into our range.

  • Organic Products: We mainly choose organic ingredients such as the organic nuts from 'De Notenshop'. These nuts are not only of excellent quality, but also sustainably produced.
  • Sustainable Fish: We always use sustainably caught products for our seafood, such as fish from 'De Visspecialist', which is known for its ethical fishing methods.
  • Regional Specialties: Many of our products, such as the 'Herbal Cheese' from the local cheese farm in Gouda, come from the area, which means we support the local economy.

Focus on Craft Products

Food and Wood believes in the power of craftsmanship. Our Christmas baskets contain products that have been made with care and expertise.

  • Craft Brewed Beer: For example, the 'Zeeuws Blond' from Brouwerij Van De Oirsprong, which is brewed with love and attention in small batches. This ensures a unique taste experience.
  • Handmade Chocolate: Our Christmas baskets contain handmade chocolate from 'Chocolaterie De Kookwinkel', where only the best cocoa beans are used. This chocolate is not only delicious, but also a work of art in itself.

Local Suppliers

We are proud of our network of local suppliers. By working with producers from the region, we can not only guarantee the quality, but also the freshness of our products.

  • Freshly Selected Fruits and Vegetables: Our fruit bowls contain seasonal products from 'Landwinkel', which ensures optimum quality and freshness.
  • Artisanal Jam: The jams in our Christmas baskets are produced by 'De Kookwinkel', which uses high-quality local fruit.

The Importance of Fresh, Seasonal Produce

One of the foundations of our quality philosophy is the use of fresh, seasonal products. This offers several advantages:

  • Taste: Seasonal produce is often tastier. Think of specimens such as 'Winter Apples' from local orchards that are harvested in the winter months.
  • Nutritional value: Produce harvested in the right season retains more nutrients. Our organic fall vegetables make a healthy addition to any Christmas basket.
  • Sustainability: By choosing seasonal products, we reduce our ecological footprint. For example, our Christmas baskets contain local nuts in winter, which is better for the environment than imported nuts.

Example of Traditional Christmas Products

Below is an overview of some of our carefully selected products that illustrate the quality of Food and Wood:

Product Description Supplier
Zeeland Blonde Artisanal blond beer Brewery Van De Oirsprong
Handmade Chocolate Luxury chocolates, handmade Chocolate shop De Kookwinkel
Organic Nuts Various nuts, organic cultivation The Nut Shop
Seasonal Fruit Fresh fruit from the region Country store
Artisanal Jam Jams made from local fruits, authentic flavours The Cooking Shop

Food and Wood guarantees high-quality products that are made with care and passion. Our pursuit of quality is what makes our Christmas baskets so special, and what makes us proud of our range.

Sustainability and ethics

More and more consumers are placing value on sustainability and ethical production. At Food and Wood, we recognize the need to make responsible choices that not only promote the health of the planet, but also contribute to a just society. In this section, we highlight the environmental and ethical initiatives we take, and the direct impact of these choices on the community and the environment.

Environmentally Friendly Practices

Sustainable Packaging

One of the most important steps Food and Wood has taken is the transition to sustainable packaging. We have replaced all plastic packaging with biodegradable alternatives. This means that all shaped packaging, such as that for our popular granolas and smoothies, is made from materials that do not harm the natural environment. We work with suppliers such as Mooijekind Vending who specialize in ecological packaging.

Benefits of Sustainable Packaging:
  • Reduces the amount of waste that ends up in nature.
  • Supports the circular economy through the reuse of materials.
  • Strengthens the brand image of companies that value sustainability.

Supporting Local Farmers

Food and Wood strives to support local farmers by sourcing as many ingredients as possible from the region. A first among our products is the Dutch Organic Oatmeal, which comes directly from local growers. By working with farms like The Green Way, where sustainable agricultural practices are used, we ensure fresh, high-quality produce and reduce the environmental footprint associated with long transportation distances.

Benefits of Local Ingredients:
  • Freshness and taste without long transport times.
  • Strengthening the local economy.
  • Reduction of CO2 emissions through shorter supply routes.

Impact on Environment and Community

Environmental impact

The impact of sustainable choices can be felt at various levels. Reducing plastic waste and using local products not only has an effect on the immediate environment, but also helps to preserve biodiversity and combat climate change.

  • Reduction of CO2 emissions: By working locally, long transports become unnecessary.
  • Biodiversity: Supporting local farmers promotes crop diversity in the region.

Community Impact

Supporting local farmers and environmentally friendly practices also has a direct impact on the community. By working with local producers, we create economic opportunities in the region and promote sustainable employment. An example of this is our partnership with Farmer and Care Foundation, which not only supports farmers but also takes initiatives to promote social inclusion.

Benefits to the Community:
  • Stimulating local economies and employment.
  • Promoting social cohesion through community projects.
  • Education on sustainable farming methods for local people.

Example of Sustainable Products

Here are some of our most sustainable products that put the above principles into practice:

Product Characteristics Sustainability aspects
Dutch Organic Oatmeal Organic, locally produced Reduction of transport, support for local economy
Eco-Friendly Smoothies In organic packaging and natural ingredients Biodegradable packaging, fresh local produce
Sustainable Granola Free from artificial additives, locally produced Supporting local growers, healthy food

Food and Wood is committed to sustainability and ethics on all fronts. By making conscious choices and working with local producers, we are building a greener future for both consumers and communities.
