New Frugi sign at Gear Farm

There’s been a funny noise emanating from our warehouse recently. A sort of dull repetitive thudding sound. At first we imagined that Mark, our warehouse manager and maker of fine cups of coffee, had been banging his head against the wall in anguish at the lack of space. Or his, how shall we put it, [...]

A little story about recycling…

Yesterday morning I rushed out of the house to try and catch the recycling van - not because the men driving it were super-sexy or anything (although in my current Bridget Jones phase, I can’t really afford to be choosy) but simply because I hadn’t put my recycling out on time and they were leaving!

Autumn/Winter catalogue

Just thought I’d drop the team a note to say congrats on the new catalogue.  I don’t just mean the collection (though that’s pretty darn good) - I mean the catalogue itself.
I think Lucy’s article about buying less, but better - of everything - was superb.  So true - and as she says, a quick [...]

Cbeebies

I was having a wonderful conversation with Tom, my 5 year old son last night. We were telling each other that we loved our family and each other. Aaaaahhh…
Amongst the topics that we were discussing was the day he came into this world. I explained that, as Lucy had a home birth in a pool, it [...]

Do your kids read the Frugi Catalogue?

This very cute photo of Isla checking out the Frugi models in the Spring/Summer Catalogue was sent to us by one of our customers… apparently it is her favourite book!

Henri, our e-commerce girl, has also discovered that her nephew is hooked on the catalogue - he regularly picks it up and sits down for a spot of light [...]
