United Kingdom, 30th Aug 2024 – Peach Hampers have proudly announced the launch of our new Yorkshire-themed hamper in celebration of Yorkshire Day 2024. The hamper features a range of delicious handmade products sourced from local businesses.
Having the ability to design and collate stunning bespoke hampers meant that we could create something truly special to celebrate our region. Our family-run business has crafted a new, personalised gift hamper that highlights the best of our region’s craftsmanship.
What is Yorkshire Day?
Yorkshire Day has its origins very close to our Hull headquarters. Originally established in Beverley in 1975, Yorkshire Day celebrates the pride of a region described as a “nation within a nation”.
As the largest country in the UK, Yorkshire has its own flag, language and its own anthem (almost). The people of Yorkshire are a proud group of people who celebrate their distinct culture, that is worth celebrating.
The first official civic celebration of Yorkshire Day was help in York in 1985 and popularity has gathered pace over the years. The format has progressed over time with events taking place across the region including thanksgiving services, parades and themed events.
But what is the significance of the date, 1st August? The date has significance around Minden Day, which commemorates the ‘Battle of Minden’. The day honours the Yorkshire soldiers from the King’s Own Yorkshire Light Infantry who took part in the battle during the Seven Years’ War.
The date is also the anniversary of the emancipation of slaves, which Yorkshire born MP William Wilberforce was instrumental in.
Celebrating All Things Yorkshire
“Our Celebrating All Things Yorkshire hamper is a tribute to the wonderful place that we call home,” said Brendan Pallant of Peach Hampers. “In this hamper, you’ll find some of the very best products from our local artisans and businesses. We believe every item reflects the quality and tradition that Yorkshire folk are known for.”
Yorkshire is perfectly placed to create beautiful, tasty and innovative products. In arguably one of the most stunning regions of the UK, it is ideal for inspiring gorgeous products to match their surroundings. Included in the latest hamper are well-known Yorkshire favourites like Whitakers Chocolates, Yorkshire Flapjack, Cartwright & Butler, and Cooper King Distillery.

Whitakers Chocolates were established in 1889 and have over 135 years of experience crafting excellent chocolates. This family-run business based in Skipton, continues a legacy of expert chocolate making.
