How it works
Pick your bag
Become a member and choose from four bag sizes, with or without a weekly fruit bag alongside. Membership is open to everyone.
Fresh from the farm
Our farmers harvest early in the week and deliver to our packing yard, where the team packs everything into reusable bags on Wednesday morning.
From a point near you
We text you when your bag reaches your local collection point on Wednesday. Collect it by Friday, and return your reusable bag from the week before.
Going away? Just email us by Wednesday with a week's notice and we'll pause your bag and refund you. Any uncollected veg goes to local community food schemes and food banks – nothing is wasted.

Almost all of our fruit and veg comes from small-scale organic farms in southeast England – local and, by default, seasonal. As a not-for-profit co-operative, any surplus we make is reinvested in the organisation, the community, or other local food projects.
Good food for everyone
Affordable by design
We believe everyone should have access to fresh, seasonal, organic produce, so we work hard to keep our bags affordable and accessible. We accept Healthy Start vouchers, offer a 20% low-income discount, and will deliver bags to people who are unable to leave their home to collect them.
Our Solidarity Fund, supported by members who can afford a little more, quietly subsidises bags for neighbours who need it. To contribute or to ask for support, get in touch – no forms, no fuss.
Every Wednesday
Collection points
Bags are delivered on Wednesday to collection points dotted across the local area. Pick the one nearest you:
- [Collection point 1] [collect Wed–Fri]
- [Collection point 2] [collect Wed–Fri]
- [Collection point 3] [collect Wed–Fri]
Can't get to a collection point? For an extra £3 we can home-deliver your bag via our partner bike couriers, Neko Home Delivery.

We're there every Wednesday from 9am to 3pm packing the week's fruit and veg – do drop by if you'd like to chat to us face to face.
Fancy lending a hand? Volunteering on a Wednesday is sociable, out in the fresh air, and rewarded in veg: 20% off if you help once a month, 50% off twice a month, or a free bag if you help every week.
