Have you ever wondered about the journey your veg box takes before it arrives at your doorstep? Behind every fresh carrot and leafy green is a carefully planned process, ensuring you receive the freshest produce possible. Let’s take a look at how your box comes together, step by step.
1. Planting with Purpose
The journey begins months before harvest, with thoughtful crop planning. Each season, we carefully select what to plant based on what will thrive in our no-dig beds and what our customers love most. From tenderstem broccoli to vibrant radishes, every seed is chosen with care.
2. Nurturing Our Crops
Once planted, our vegetables are nurtured daily. Our no-dig methods ensure the soil remains healthy and full of nutrients, giving our crops the best chance to flourish. Polytunnels protect delicate seedlings, while regular weeding and watering keep everything on track.
3. Harvesting by Hand
When the time comes to harvest, everything is picked by hand. This allows us to carefully select only the freshest and ripest produce. From crisp lettuce to juicy tomatoes, every item is checked to ensure it meets our high standards.
4. Partnering with Local Growers
While much of our produce comes from our own fields, we also collaborate with trusted local growers to complement our boxes. This means you get an even wider variety of organic, seasonal produce, all sourced sustainably and close to home.
5. Packing with Care
Our team works quickly to pack your boxes as soon as the produce is harvested. Using recyclable and minimal packaging, we arrange your vegetables to ensure they stay fresh during transit. Every box is packed with the care and attention it deserves.
6. Delivered to Your Doorstep
Finally, your veg box is delivered straight to your door, brimming with the freshest produce of the season. Whether it’s your first box or your fiftieth, we aim to bring the farm-to-table experience to your home with every delivery.
The Heart of the Process
Our veg boxes are about more than just delivering vegetables. They’re about connecting people to the land, supporting sustainable farming practices, and reducing the distance between farm and fork. By choosing our veg boxes, you’re supporting a system that values quality, care, and the environment.
We’re so proud to share this journey with you, and we hope every box brings you a little closer to the farm that grows your food. If you have any questions or feedback, we’d love to hear from you!
