Organic vegetables - seasonal boxes and "A La Carte"
about ordering fruit
 Abbey
Farm seasonal selection box - this is a particularly economical
way of buying a selection of the organic vegetables you need.
Each week we select a range of seasonal produce which is packed
with regard to your individual preferences. You only get vegetables
you can use - if there are items you would prefer to never receive
in your box, you can let us know (more
about this...)
The boxes are available in 3 sizes. You can have your box delivered
to your nearest community collection point, or even to your door.
A small delivery charge applies to these options - alternatively,
you can collect your produce from Abbey Farm, Flitcham.
You are welcome to order a one-off box as a trial. You can then
have a regular weekly or fortnightly box, or just make an order
whenever you want one. You can also vary your box size if need.
Regular customers are welcome to cancel boxes for holidays etc.
If you wish to buy particular item of produce, you can do this
using our "A La Carte" list, either ordering
a whole box "A La Carte", or just some additional items
to have with a seasonal box (more about this...)

What's in the boxes?
Depending on your preferences (more
about preferences...) each weekly box normally has
set quantities of staples - potatoes, carrots and onions. In addition
there is a selection of other vegetables which are changed from
week to week - the number of different types of produce depends
on your box size (see above). For the range of vegetables likely
to be available in the boxes over the course of the year, see
the Seasonal Guide.
Our recipe booklets will give you
information about how to use the various produce in the seasonal
selection.
