Well done to Helen Davies from Bolton who won 2 weekend passes and a load of Mr Scruff goodies! Don't worry if you didn't win, there's still chance to buy tickets and see Mr Scruff, just click on 'buy tickets' at the top.
Make Us A Brew! give you the coolest cuppa in town courtesy of DJ, cartoonist and tea-lover Mr Scruff. After years of sharing his love of tea by serving it at his clubs Mr Scruff decided to source his own tea and set up his own tea company. Make Us A Brew! launched a range of organic brews earlier this year including its Fairtrade English Breakfast, Forest Fruit (especially for berry freaks), Yerba Mate (a South American favourite caffeine kick) and their now famous Mint and Chilli (tasting is believing). Mr Scruff designed the packaging (printed on recycled cardboard of course) himself using his unique cartoon style. Try them all plus a few new brews they're taste-testing exclusively at Summer in the Park.
