Whanau Iti Veggie Box (30 weeks)

What is it?

30 weeks of super fresh, organically grown produce! Veggie harvests / deliveries will start mid November (14 or 21) 2022, and continue for 30 weeks*. The Whanau Iti box is suggested for families of 1-3, depending on your weekly vegetable consumption and how much cooking you do.

Each week we aim to provide between 6 and 10 different seasonal vegetables, freshly harvested from our certified organic farm. We grow over 40 types of veggies and strive to provide variety from week to week. You can expect your weekly veggie box to include: salad greens, cooking greens, onion family, a root veggie, a herb, and other seasonal goods. Towards summer, you’ll see plenty of tomatoes, cucumbers, and (hopefully) capsicum; and autumn will include pumpkin / squash, and brassicas like broccoli and cauliflower. Due to the nature of farming, we make no promises on weekly items.

At this stage, we are unable to accommodate custom shares, but can work with customers who have allergies / aversions to find a substitute.

We aim to grow 100% of whats in our box, but occasionally buy in produce from other local, organic farms to add variety or due to crop failure. We will always disclose this to you, our supporters.

The free-range egg add-on is from Laughing Pukeko’s flock of pasture raised hens, located on site at The Organic College. Eggs are mixed grade, with an average size between large and jumbo.

BONUS:

Each week you’ll receive a newsletter with farm updates, recipes, veggie forecast, inspiration, and veggie storage tips.
