The weekly box scheme is a way of getting fresh produce from us, the retailer, to you, the consumer, with the minimum of time between harvesting and eating, and with reduced transportation. The vegetable box consists of produce, the majority of which has been grown in the Southwest. Much of the fruit consists of bought in produce but we try to source as much UK grown produce as possible. The Vegetable Box What vegetables will you get in your box? In any one week you will receive at least 7 to 8 different vegetables in your box. The variety of vegetables you receive will vary with the seasons: during autumn and winter, potatoes, carrots and onions will be a staple part of your box, whereas during the warmer months you will find lettuce, cucumbers and tomatoes appearing frequently in your box. We will try to provide you with as much variety as possible. How much is the box? We offer four sizes of Vegetable Box - Small £5.00 Mimi £7.50 Medium £10.00 and Large £12.50 all with different kinds of veg. We also do a £12 mixed Fruit and Veg Box which has 3 fruit items and 7 veg items. Recent findings indicate that our vegetables are on average 20% cheaper and our fruit was 30% cheaper than prices charged for produce in Supermarkets and specialist organic outlets. Will you get enough vegetables? We have found over the past couple of years that the £7.50 box is sufficient for 2 to 3 people and the larger, £12.50 box, is a good size for a household of 4 - 5 people. Our £12 mixed box is suited to 2 - 3 people. The Fruit Bag What fruit will you get in your bag? You will receive a selection of different types of fruit. Apples and oranges will appear regularly but we try to vary the bag by including soft fruit such as raspberries, Blueberries and Strawberries when available where will the fruit come from? We try our best to source as much fruit as possible from within the UK however, much of it will come from abroad, especially during the winter months. How much is the bag? We only offer one size of fruit bag, which costs £6.00. You are free to receive more than one. What if you wish to cancel for a week or go on holiday? Please let us know at least 3 days in advance if you don't want a box in any particular week. What if you don't like certain vegetables? We allow three dislikes per household for which we will try to substitute a different vegetable or increase the amount of other items. (Not available for the fruit box).
