Once again this year we are supporting charities by selling dates
We have chosen to support vulnerable individuals, community group and families who are struggling with basic food essentials. We will be working alongside other organisations that provide weekly food bank facilities, and support and network with various community groups who work with and can deliver awareness and information on mental health related issues, also organisations that work with homeless individuals and families in crisis.We have seen a increase in numbers of families/ vulnerable individuals whom are left with no other alternative but to use food banks throughout the city of Bradford.

Dates are sweet fruits in many varieties, such as fresh, wet, semi-dry, and dry. The antioxidants, minerals, and vitamins in dates help support brain, digestive, and heart health and protect against disease. Some evidence suggests that dates may help ease natural labor. You can use dates as a sweetener in recipes for smoothies or oatmeal or eat them as is.
How To Store Dates
Store dates at low temperatures to help protect their flavor, texture, and quality. Keeping your dates in an airtight container helps reduce moisture loss. You can keep dates at low temperatures for about six to 12 months. To preserve your dates for longer periods, you can freeze them.
Tips for Eating Dates
You can enjoy dates as is or use them in a variety of ways, such as:
- Use dates to sweeten baked goods, chia or avocado pudding, energy balls, oatmeal, overnight oats, and smoothies.
- Use puréed dates to make homemade plant-based “ice cream” mixed with add-ins (e.g., chopped dark chocolate and pitted cherries), cinnamon, and plant milk.
- Incorporate dates into savory dishes. Dates add natural sweetness and balance to cooked veggies like sautéed kale or roasted cauliflower, garden salads, and veggie stir fries.
- Stuff dates with herbed nut-based, nut and seed butter, plant-based “cheeses,” or savory fillings, like olive tapenade and dairy-free pesto.
