‘Pie for a Pie’ campaign launched
Bristol business Pieminister have announced the launch of their ‘Pie for a Pie’ campaign. This summer, whenever you buy a pie, they will donate another to UKHarvest, a charity aiming to eliminate food waste and hunger through a network of food redistribution.
As an incentive, Pieminster have also introduced three new pies to try out until the end of August: Mexicow, with a chili con carne filling made from pure British beef; Thai Chook, which blends the vibrant taste of Thai green curry with the classic chicken pie; vegetarian Feta Attraction, filled with feta cheese, spinach, chickpea and squash.
is needed now More than ever
“To help us reach our target, all you have to do is eat pies – it’s that simple!” said Pieminister co-founder Jon Simon. He also added that this will help to “eliminate hunger and food waste in the UK.”
Yvonne Thompson of partners UKHarvest said: “We are thrilled to be working with Pieminister. This campaign will help us to keep feeding thousands of people in need.”
Look out for the yellow ‘Pie for a Pie’ stickers on boxed pies, and in any of the Bristol restaurants. You can also pledge online at: www.pieminister.co.uk/competitions/pieforapie
