veg box

Phoolgrrrl

Does anyone have any recommendations for a veg box delivery that would deliver to carrick/newtownabbey? Have looked on soil association site but most of the links seem broken.

We used to get from Helens Bay organic (we are in Whiteabbey), it was good but we just didn't get round to using it all and ended up throwing more out, it was a bit more expensive too but then again it is delivered and organic!

There are a few others, I will try and remember them and post.

i use FlavourFirst ..... not sure if they deliver up as far as n'abbey but must be worth a phone call check them out at FlavourFirst.com or on 07801479980 ... most of the good stuff is from their own farm or the local area where possible and always very good :j

LOL.. I get a graze box every week, but is a snack box, wouldn't feed a family, unless it's a family of white mice!! But lovely snack box..

I too would be interested, I live in Carrick and there's not much about here!

I get mine from Abel and Cole, have you given their website a try?

Interesting post - Ive often thought about this as I wondered if it would MAKE me use all my veg up every week rather than chucking it out. CAn anyone give me an idea of cost/sizes/contents for the difference companies (I could go and look myself of course, but am feeling lazy - teehee!)

Thanks for the sites, I have had a look and I think I would have the same prob as Jamie-V and wouldn't use it all before it went bad. No way I would need 750g onions a week! Meh will stick with buyin fresh weekly and some frozen veg. Maybe one day!
