Our Local Food Hamper is a generous, beautifully balanced local food hamper filled with award-winning artisan produce from across Northern Ireland.
 
It offers the same quality and care as our largest hamper, with a slightly smaller cheese selection, making it excellent value and a very popular gift choice.
 
This local food hamper is ideal for birthdays, thank-you gifts, housewarmings, or for anyone who wants to enjoy the best of local food without going all-out on size.
