Description

In the heart of winter when fresh produce seems like a distant memory, we bring you our Large Family Veg Box filled with nature’s bounty straight from an organic UK farm to your doorstep! This isn’t just any box—it’s overflowing with locally grown delights harvested at peak ripeness for ultimate taste and nutrition.

Grown using time-honored, sustainable farming techniques that respect our earth as much as they nourish your family, every vegetable in this Large Family Veg Box is organic without a trace of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers anywhere near it! The crops are picked during the current December harvest when each plant’s flavor and vitality peak at their best. Enjoy vibrant carrots, crisp greens like kale that have been kissed by our sunny fields throughout autumnal days—each one is a taste of seasonality in every bite!

Our farm’s commitment to organic farming extends beyond the produce. By choosing us as your CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) box supplier, you’re directly contributing to our thriving local community where each purchase strengthens its economic backbone and fosters a sustainable food chain! Join this year-round journey of discovery with nature’s seasons by signing up for the Large Family Veg Box—bring freshness into your lives, one delicious vegetable at a time.

🧮 The Math Behind Our Prices

📊
100 members

Our target community

📅
48 weeks/year

Deliveries

💷
£11.81 break-even

Minimum to survive

£56,700 ÷ 100 members ÷ 48 weeks = £11.81 break-even

£10.50 solidarity minimum = We take a small loss to help you

£11.81 = Break-even (farm survives, no fair wages yet)

£15 standard = Minimum wage for farmers

£20 supporter = Fair wage + helping subsidize others

Above £20 = Really helping both farm and those in need

⚠️ Important: Our £45,000 farmer wages = £21.60/hour GROSS (before tax, pension, holidays).

Take-home is closer to £15-16/hour - barely a living wage for skilled agricultural work.

This system relies on honesty:

Below £11.81 = we subsidize you (that's okay if you need the help). At £15 = minimum wage. At £20+ = you enable solidarity pricing for those in genuine need. Please choose based on what you can truly afford.
