Bradford-based Morrisons launches Yorkshire Food Box to celebrate Yorkshire Day

Morrisons said the special box is packed full of the county's finest products, which have been sourced from local food and drink producers.

The spokesman added: "Morrisons Yorkshire Box brings together classic Yorkshire products such as Grandma Wild’s Biscuits, Yorkshire Wensleydale Cheese and of course good old Yorkshire Tea."

"The box has been designed to help customers support regional producers and celebrate the day in style."

The Yorkshire Day Food Box is available on the Morrisons' Food Boxes website now (https://www.morrisons.com/food-boxes/box/Yorkshire-Day-Food-Box).

Editor’s note: first and foremost - and rarely have I written down these words with more sincerity - I hope this finds you well.

Almost certainly you are here because you value the quality and the integrity of the journalism produced by The Yorkshire Post’s journalists - almost all of which live alongside you in Yorkshire, spending the wages they earn with Yorkshire businesses - who last year took this title to the industry watchdog’s Most Trusted Newspaper in Britain accolade.

And that is why I must make an urgent request of you: as advertising revenue declines, your support becomes evermore crucial to the maintenance of the journalistic standards expected of The Yorkshire Post. If you can, safely, please buy a paper or take up a subscription. We want to continue to make you proud of Yorkshire’s National Newspaper but we are going to need your help.
