IN order to improve the range of produce available to customers at the Sunday farmers’ market at the Designer Outlet we decided to introduce Pinkbox Boutique, which specialises in bringing great local produce to markets on behalf of certain traders who may not have time to do all the markets in the area.

Pinkbox has been at the market for a few months now and has brought such great local produce as Stainswick Farm Oils and Hive Originals but it is now expanding to include a skincare section.

This week customers will be introduced to the highly acclaimed Pink & Green Organic skincare range, handmade in Wiltshire. The range is truly fabulous with the three-step facial treatment, golden body oils, a range of skin-specific facial oils, body butters, eye serum and bath oils.

Company founder Carol says: “Pink & Green is focused on offering you the invitation to acknowledge your gorgeousness; remind yourself you are special; offer the opportunity for quality time and embrace self-worth.”

It’s Valentine’s Day next Sunday so why not try one of these fabulous products as a gift for your loved one?

Elsewhere, I can put all you doughnut lovers out of your misery; Pippin Doughnuts will return next week! I know it’s been a long time without them and I know how you’ve all suffered; me too!
