Christmas shopping is easier when you know who you’re buying for. So this year’s guide is arranged by person: the cook, the beer drinker, the one who needs a long bath, and the stocking that still has room in the toe.
If you’re after Yorkshire food gifts that nobody else will turn up with, everything here is made with our wild-grown seaweed and packed up for you in Scarborough. And if nothing on the list is quite right, you can build your own.
Build your own seaweed gift set
The natural cotton bag our gift packs come in is now available on its own. Add one to your basket for £2.50, or it’s free when you spend £35 or more. Fill it with whatever suits the person you have in mind.
A few we’ve put together:
~ The Cook: Everyday Seaweed Seasoning and a bottle of Hold Fast.
~ Bath Night: our seaweed bath soak and the Haircare Duo.
~ Stocking-sized: Kombu Seaweed Salt Alternative and a bar of Seaweed Soap.
For the cook: seaweed seasoning gift sets
Our top pick is the Seaweed Seasoning Discovery Pack, last Christmas’s bestseller. It’s three tubes in our cotton gift bag: Everyday, Herby Lemon & Garlic, and our Kombu Salt Alternative.
Everyday is the one to start with. A shake over roast potatoes, scrambled eggs or a bowl of buttered greens brings a deep, savoury flavour. Herby Lemon & Garlic is for fish, chicken and anything that wants brightening up. The Kombu Salt Alternative is a pure kombu seasoning, for anyone cooking with less salt.
Discovery Pack, £26. Single tubes from £9.85, refill pouches £6.95.
For the beer drinker: Hold Fast seaweed beer
Hold Fast is a light session pale made with our wild-grown kelp, and brewed exclusively for SeaGrown by Wold Top Brewery. As seaweed beers go, it’s an easy one to like, and a good story to tell at the table.
A gift pack of three 500ml bottles is £10. A case of six is £19.50, which should see you through Christmas Eve. Single bottles are £3.50, handy for tucking into a gift bag.
For the one who needs to unwind: seaweed bath soak and body gifts
Our top pick is the Hundale gift pack: Seaweed Soap, Hand & Body Cream and our Seaweed Mineral Bath Soak, gathered in the cotton gift bag. The bath soak is our wild-grown seaweed and Epsom salts. Tip a handful under the hot tap and give yourself twenty minutes.
Hundale, £39.75. The smaller Hayburn (£24) and Cornelian (£11.50) packs suit a smaller budget, and the Seaweed Mineral Bath Soak is £16.95 on its own.
Stocking fillers, all £10 or less
A bottle of Hold Fast seaweed beer, £3.50
Seaweed shampoo bar, £6.75
Seaweed conditioner bar, £5.95
A refill pouch of any seasoning, £6.95
Seaweed Soap, £9.75
A tube of Everyday Seaweed Seasoning, £9.85
For the one who has everything (or the whole office)
Plant a Tree in the Sea™ is a contribution to our work out in the North Sea, from £10. It works as a gift for one person or from a whole company, and supporters hear from our science team every quarter, with photographs from the water.
Order by midday on Thursday 17 December for Christmas delivery. Missed it? A SeaGrown Digital Gift Card arrives by email.
Every order is packed by our small team in Scarborough. Thank you for shopping with us this Christmas!
