    Riverford don't customise boxes. I like that because it makes me try new things.

    When comparing prices remember it's all organic. Riverford are cheaper than the other organic vegboxes in my area, I looked at them all.


    Riverford do allow you to customise boxes though http://www.riverford.co.uk/shop/vegetables/
    You can buy what you want from that list or leave out what you don't want.

    well my half price salad box arrived yesterday and we were really impressed by the quality of the veg. the carrots especially really did smell and taste like carrots should unlike the pathetic examples i got from tesco last week. the gem lettuces were very heavy! again tesco equivalent may be cheap but has no weight to speak of how do they grow veg that light? the radishes were peppery not bland as were the salad leaves. again i checked prices online with the big four supermarkets and the box priced up competitavely especially as there is no charge for delivery. so i think we will be getting the boxes every week from now on...i will try the fruit and veg box next and add on some free range eggs. thanks again OP i am now a happy riverford customer!

    Doesn't cover my area but this has prompted me to look up veg boxes in my area! If you don't like some of the veggies maybe you can use them in soups?
