The meals contain ingredients produced by British farmers focused on sustainability and environmentally-friendly objectives – with an emphasis on British grown ancient grains as these are not modified and aid positive gut health and well being. We use no emulsifiers, preservatives or other chemicals.
The Wild Hare Group also champions regenerative agriculture, which sees us incorporate ingredients that have been designed to minimise carbon output. The use of traditional UK grains are chosen also as they require 50% less water than commercial wheat. We are the only meal range ever to achieve 3 stars at the Guild of Fine Food Great Taste Awards.
