On the 5th April 2023 we'd raised £1,340 with 35 supporters in 28 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
If I surpass my initial target it would be wonderful to be able to provide more variation in the refill food options for my local customers.
I would invest in more locally-grown and sail-cargo food options; such as British-grown hazelnuts, dark chocolate, chamomile and matcha tea, spaghetti and noodle nests, bulgur wheat, paprika powder, chilli flakes, poppy and chia seeds, grown-your-own seeds, hand-carved wooden scoops, and hand-powered coffee grinders.
DAUN DELIVERIES
I aim to help you to cut out pointless packaging whilst giving you more time to do the things you love. Delivering refills of your favourite dry foods, by e-bike and in re-usable packaging.
I am offering a range of refill foods to help you cook from scratch; Fusilli, Fregola Couscous, Pecans, Walnuts, Jasmine Tea, Coffee, Portuguese Rice, Paprika Peas... the list goes on! All you need to re-stock your larder.
OPPORTUNITY
I have been offered the chance to be featured in the Positive News journal, who are pioneers of ‘constructive journalism’. Expert journalists and editors would create a piece about DAUN, helping to delve into the story and grow the customer base. They reach an engaged audience of more than two million people, who care about their environment and the companies they choose to connect with. This opportunity will help me to reach like-minded people who are looking to support and use services like DAUN.
I need to raise £1,300 in order to pay for this feature. The more I raise, the more people I can reach, and the more we can help combat negative consumption! Once the support has been established we can really start to tackle the over-production of single-use goods and delivery emissions in our food industry.

TESTIMONIALS
“I love this service! As a busy person trying to juggle a busy work-life, whilst trying to be as sustainable and healthy as possible, it is great to have finally found a service that has everything I need in my kitchen. The products are great, sustainably packaged and delivered in a green way. I feel like being healthy, eco-friendly and efficient has never been so easy!” Dominique
“I was bragging to all my friends about this delivery, genius!” Edie
“My first bag of DAUN goodies looks straight out of a French country market. Using these gorgeous whole foods makes me feel like I'm doing the planet (and my health) a world of good.” Isabella
“Such lovely produce, thoughtfully sourced, packaged and delivered via e-bike. Very easy to use and alleviates the guilt of excess packaging you get from usual food delivery.” Katie
“Outstanding and efficient service and the most delicious and high quality products! Such a clever and easy way to shop sustainably and reduce packaging. It also saves you a trip to the shop!” Abi
“Could not recommend DAUN more. I saw them advertised on social media and so decided to give them a go. The delivery was very prompt and they were flexible with the times they delivered which was helpful. Communication was also fantastic. The package I received was just lovely! It had such a special touch to it and made it genuinely enjoyable to do my food shopping. I would 100% recommend and will most definitely be using them again.” Charlie
“Daun is a revolutionary concept. More and more people these days are focusing on and idealising zero waste, but realistically, people don’t have the necessary time to meet their zero waste commitments at home. Daun is the solution to that problem; zero waste, organic & farmer friendly groceries delivered straight to you door - no hassle and no stress. Making zero waste shopping easy and affordable, and most importantly, a realistic solution and environmentally friendly alternative for everyone.” Chloe
