What makes the Veg Box Donation Scheme Unique?
In many ways, we are not trying to be unique, we are just trying to help people in need, like other amazing organisations such as Foodbank, and other local resources that help those in poverty.
Our veg boxes give people fresh fruit and vegetables, not food that can be stored for a long time. We like to think that this uniqueness compliments other ways people are getting help.
So what compliments do our boxes offer those in need?
A healthy option
Fresh fruit and veg is healthy. They are an essential source of vitamins, minerals, fibre and protein. Whether for adults or children, fruit and veg is a need for everyone.
Reduces food waste
A lot of the food we provide is excess produce from local growers, schools and companies that are able to pass on unused fruit and veg that would otherwise go to waste. A lot of our food is actually grown by our generous volunteers and local growers, purely to help those in need.
If you are interested in helping us to get more fresh food to those in need, why not get in touch. We are especially looking for people who are up for setting up a new location! Please just Contact Us.
