as #MilkAndMore are still offering #compost with #peat, I checked up and found that the ban scheduled for the end of 2024 hasn't happened. And who knows if it will ever be implemented. If you want to speed up the #ClimateCatastrophe, carry on destroying the #peatlands, that's probably a bigger factor than things like cars or airtravel.

UK Government confirms ban on all peat-based gardening products will not be implemented until 2030 | The Wildlife Trusts

Today, Defra (Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs) has confirmed that while some peat-containing products will be banned from shelves in 2027, others will be exempt from a ban until 2030.

#MilkAndMore have emailed to emphasise they would never feed their cows #Bovaer and they don't care how much methane they emit. Or something like that. We have already replaced most of our weekly use with #Oatly, may have to consider the residual order. (which we kept in case milk needed for baking, and also to stay in the loop with one of the very few return and refill systems functioning in this country)
#MilkAndMore did send us an email to tell us the design of the bottle tops would change very subtly. They forgot to mention that they've just been sold to another company, #Freshways : https://www.thegrocer.co.uk/dairy/muller-sells-milk-and-more-to-freshways-in-shock-deal/685744.article And that they'd discontinue our usual product. Guess after 31 years of supporting our local #milkman and the refill system this is the time to go vegan and switch to #oatly.

The Grocer
#MilkAndMore in #Oxford have delivered homogenised milk this week rather than the non-homogenised we ordered. Who got our cream tops? So far we haven't managed to get a sensible response out of their customer service team.

#milkandmore have started taking returns in the coke bottles they sell to you
