We are all doing our bit to protect our climate-saving peatlands by buying peat-free compost – but did you know that lots of fresh food sold by supermarkets is grown in peat? We want peat out of our homes for good!
Peatlands are currently being dug up and destroyed to help grow the food and other products that appear in our homes.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
Ask your supermarket to join you in going peat-free for the planet, to protect our communities against climate change and flooding, and to save these special, wild places.
