What we offer
Hampers of prepared foods & fresh vegetables
Hampers
Our hampers are full of fresh, nourishing seasonal vegetable based foods, made with our own naturally grown vegetables. Other ingredients are organic and local where possible.
The flour for our breads and pasta is made by our neighbours’ organic heritage grains flours. They are not strictly vegetarian and may occasionally contain small amounts of local pancetta or possibly anchovies in a sauce as well as nuts and flour.

Ideal for busy couples who love food and are adventurous eaters.
Our hampers are a weekly or fortnightly subsciption to ensure you get plenty of vegetables into your diet.
You can also order individual items and collect from our Thursday farm stall. At present you need to be on our mailing list in order to order from our order form.
Because we rely on nature to supply our vegetables there may occasionally be an element of surprise to what is included.
This is eating as it should be: real food made with fresh ingredients with no weird preservatives, flavourings or additives.
We intend to cram as many plants into your hamper each week as possible to ensure lots of diversity and cover the 30 plants suggested per week.
Our packaging will be returnable or compostable, occasionally recyclable but no plastic. Additional ingredients will be locally sourced where possible and organic whenever there is the option.
