Zest Magazine Girls Big Adventure

The lovely people at Zest Magazine invited us to be part of their Girls Big Adventure Day in Lea Valley Park, Hertfordshire. The girls ran, biked, kayaked and climbed their way over a 10km course, rather them than us today in the blazing heat.

When they finished the race we were on hand to re-engergise them with our yoghurt.

Mike's family came all the way down from the Lake District to help out their Dad, thank you team Hodgson!

We left Collective HQ with a van full of yoghurt and came back cleaned out! Great to meet all the competitors today, these sporty girls are massively passionate about their yoghurt and are going to try out some of our Anna Hansen recipies when they get home (after long soaks in a bath no doubt!)

Collective on the Moove hits Wimbledon

And we're off.... we've started our Collective on the Moove tour and landed in Wimbledon. We're keeping the officals and the fans happy with our yoghurt. Back again tomorrow so if you're in the area swing by and say hi!

Launching our little beauties at the Modern Pantry...

Today we took our yoghurts to Anna Hansen's Modern Pantry to launch them to UK Food Press and Bloggers.

Addicted to the brunches on offer in Auckland, Mike and I have found the best brunch spot in London, Anna's prawn omlette is amazing! Having grown up in New Zealand, we thought it only right we show one of London's hottest chefs our yoghurts before they hit the shelves.

We were delighted when Anna offered to create some recipies using our yoghurts, all the recipies are on our website so check them out. Here's the Passionfruit Smoothie, so easy to make and yum yum yummy!

It's launch week and Mike and I need another pair of hands. We're delighted to welcome Bethan to our team, she got to work straight away in amoungst boxes and bags and of course our yoghurt - cor blimey!

She's back fully clothed...

Today our lovely van came back to us with a brand new outfit ready for her Collective on the Moove summer sampling tour.

Here we are inside the van getting to grips with all her lovely fridges ready to house our lurvely yoghurts.

Watch this space to find out where we're about to take her - No Bull!

oh agnes, you're a wee beauty... no bull!

Meet the newest member of our UK herd, our 1979 Citroen HY van, and best thing?, she's already got dairy in her pistons.

Agnes spent her earlier life running between French towns delivering baguettes and cheese before joining The Collective. Now she's off for a bit of a makeover... we can't wait to reveal her transformation… no bull!
