What we do

We buy produce directly from local farmers and suppliers then deliver individual bag and box selections directly to your workplace.

Our policy is to buy local produce where possible. By buying direct from local farmers we are able to ensure them a better price for their produce. Buying locally also means food does not travel as far, which means it is fresher and the environmental impacts of transportation are reduced.

With a choice of standard and family fruit and veg boxes and bags, you will be amazed at the quantity and quality. Our individual weekly carry outs will save you the hassle and time of shopping. All you have to do is order, take home, unpack and starting creating a culinary masterpiece!

It couldn't be simpler!

For example if your delivery day is a Friday we need your orders by close of play on a Wednesday.

There are a number of ways to organise your workplace food coop, order and pay, please see the FAQs.
