Support Local, Shipping, Refund and Returns Policy

Support Local

All of our products are sourced locally within the South West. You can visit our page entitled Artists and read about the wonderful work they have done and the beauty they have added to Dryad Gin.  We are members of Taste of The West and support our #ThinkLocalFirst Campaign. This is what they have said about us:

At Sedgemoor fm we get a front-row view of Bridgwater’s local businesses, and what we’ve seen are a number of local giants.

We call them giants, not because of their scale, but because of their attitude and focus on delivering high standards of service, providing opportunities, and their support of local causes.   

Bridgwater’s local giants are the businesses choosing to remain deeply rooted, fiercely human and unapologetically local, even when the pressures on UK businesses are greater than ever, and the temptation to scale is ever-present.  ​​
