Flintshire hamper competition - last chance to enter!

Published: 06/08/2021

The local hamper is part of a campaign by Flintshire County Council to showcase the county’s food and drink producers and highlight why you don’t need to leave the county to find some of the best food and drink around.

The items for the hamper itself were picked following a social media campaign which encouraged Flintshire residents to submit recommendations for items.

The submissions were then collated alongside recommendations from Naomi Spaven, who runs the food and drink Instagram account Little Welsh Foodie, to help curate the final six selections.

The competition winners will receive the following:

• Green bean chutney from Mostyn Kitchen Garden

• A jam tart from Mold bakery Hulsons

• Brown bread from Mynydd Isa baker Ian Purcell

• Raspberry ripple cake from Rhosesmor-based Sandra’s Cakes

• Homemade fudge from Mold sweetshop Spaven’s

• Milkshakes from Trelogan’s Llaethdy Mynydd Mostyn Dairy

The giveaway will run to 11.59 on Friday 6 August - TODAY, with those looking to snag a bundle needing to follow the Explore Flintshire accounts as well as like the competition post and either share it or tag up to three friends to put their name in the hat.

Only three hampers will be produced as part of the campaign, with the winners needing to collect their prize from Lesters Farm Shop in Buckley.
