Our Neighbourhood Reps
We use a system of distribution that relies on dropping our produce to collection points around our delivery area. Orders are placed with the reps, and produce collected from them. There are many good reasons for doing this:
- It reduces the cost of delivery and means that you get the best value for money.
- It reduces energy use and lowers our carbon footprint.
- It allows for the efficient re-use of packaging. Recycling becomes a practical reality as customers are able to return their bags for re-use.
- It introduces an important social element to food: people meet up once a week with their neighbours, chat and get to know each other.
- It provides a local link to the farm, reducing our administration time and allowing us to get on with growing food.
We have over 30 neighbourhood reps across our delivery area, so hopefully there will be one within walking or cycling distance from you. Each neighbourhood rep looks after about 15 customers. Check out your nearest from the map of rep locations
If you are in an area that we presently do not cover and are interested in becoming a neighbourhood rep contact us for more details. You get to meet local people and are rewarded with free vegetables fresh from our farm.
