Please welcome to the world the first, fully labelled, lid covered Accumul8 jar of chutney!
and we’re very excited by it! Labels are now being printed and we are ready to go go go for our first selling opportunity at Blink Pop Up on 16 and 17 November at Hornsey Parish Church, Cranley Gardens N10. Many thanks to the wonderful James from Silverleaf Designs who has designed the logos and […]
This week was a good week for Accumul8 (there’s no stopping the goodness of this project) because 1.

This is the idea, with a space to write what the product is. It’s early days, but any comments are very welcome

The community fruit tree is part of their Tikkun Olam (social outreach) initiatives, and they they collect and redistribute surplus fruit and vegetables from allotments etc in the community and give to charities and food banks etc. (Great project!) They are now donating […]
