A DEL-POPOLO-GIVING!
Because, giving.
WHEN
RIGHT NOW (all November).
Winners announced all together on Nov 26.
WHY
This time of the year is all about reflection, community and sharing; cross-pollination, hugging, making meaning.
And this year, to celebrate the launch of DEL POPOLO, casa vino from our home to yours, we've been spotlighting some brands we love—which just happen to be the creative expressions of some of the people (our popolo) that we love the most—and offering them up in a month-long stream of good-things-to-win.
HOW WORKED
• 6 'Givings' throughout November;
• Each Giving took place one after the other, for 3 days each;
• You ccould enter the draw for every Giving, there were no limits
(ps. you didn’t need to buy anything to enter, there wwas just a simple form accessed from the top of the shop page);
• One/multiple winner/s will be randomly chosen for each Giving;
• All winners will be announced at once, on November 26!
The gifts.
Everyone will be a winner and also two lucky people will be gifted a 6-pack of Del Popolo and one very luckiest of lucky winners will be gifted a DOZEN Del Popolo (the 6-pack and dozen prize winners will be announced on Nov 26, the rest of the giving is instant for this one!).
Claudia is one of our most favourite humans and just happens to also be an incredible director and dancer. She is a ridiculously talented dance teacher and Claud's enthusiasm for movement is something we all need in our life.
We've been getting to hang with Nic and the Molly Rose crew a lot lately and we can't get enough. Their approach to life, to each other and to those around them is epically communal and their approach to brewing speaks for itself.
Andrew is literally one of the best people on planet Earth. No joke. You actually should head around to the Small Batch cellar door in North Naarm just to give him a cuddle. He also sources (all himself) and roasts to perfection with his incredible team THE BEST COFFEE IN NAARM (probably in Australia actually) (and possibly in the world). Actually.
Zepha & Dion are delicious humans whose goal is legit: ethical skin care+protection for a harsh southern Sun, made right here. Their Standard Procedure family factory is 100% solar-powered and their products are free of all the weird things you don't want on your skin. They also just released Pleasure Jelly. Just saying.
Monty, Founder of BUSHY, is an absolute legend and is FULL of (like, overflowing with) integrity. BUSHY reflects the human behind it; purpose-led underwear made in Australia from Eucalyptus trees. Monty's done a tonne of work on ethical supply chains (he's nerdy like that) and uses a multi-generational manufacturing business based in Naarm, Eora and Meanjin. BUSHY have a new female range dropping very soon as well!
We are true believers and giant supporters of all of these brands and the incredibly kind and generous people who are behind them; this is the stuff that marks meaning and engages our whole selves for the better. Thank you to you all for doing what you do, and doing it with such vibrance.
From our hearts to yours this festive season.
Lentil, Mat & Matt xx
