The first thing to do is find out is whether we deliver to your area. We are always expanding our delivery area, however we are concentrating our initial deliveries on specially selected areas around Melbourne. Go to our Online Store and use the delivery check entering your postcode. This will let you know whether or not we are currently delivering in your area.

If we are delivering to your area, you can find out which specific options are available during the checkout process, meanwhile we encourage you to peruse our delicious catalogue!

If we are not currently delivering to your area, please give us a call on 03 5367 0606, speak to us on Skype, or send us an email, and we will try our best to accommodate. Sometimes we can arrange deliveries if the order size is large enough, or if we can find other customers around your area that are interested in coming onboard with us. Give us a call and we can talk through the options.

You can click on the product to find out a little more about it (such as information about how we make sure we supply top quality products, where we source the products from, nutritional and seasonal information about the products).

Then enter in the number of units you would like (most items are sold on a per unit basis), and click the ‘+’ button, which will add the number of units to your basket.

You can have a look at the contents of your shopping basket at any time – just click on the Your Shopping Basket, which will bring up an itemised list of everything in your shopping basket. You can also remove and amend items on the shopping basket page.

Once you’ve selected everything you would like, you can then click on the ‘Checkout’ button. If you haven’t logged in yet, you will be prompted to log in by entering your email address and password.

You will then need to enter the payment details. We accept all major credit cards (Mastercard and Visa). We cannot accept payment by Diner’s club, American Express, cash or cheque.

Once the order is processed, all you have to do is make sure there’s room in the fridge!

Of course – if there is any issue that may affect your delivery, we will get in touch with you to discuss. As an example, we will contact you if a product that you have ordered has become unavailable, or if we need additional delivery instructions.

We will not contact you about our promotions and discounts unless you specifically consent to this sort of material being sent to you (you can opt out at any time).

We think that by growing the produce ourselves, we can give a little extra. From planting through to harvest, we invest our own hard work and expertise into tending and cultivating our crops.

We think our results speak for themselves – individual, high quality, gourmet produce; grown with over 80 years of horticultural experience.

The other benefit of sourcing from our farm is that it allows us to harvest and deliver to your door immediately – this means you get fresh produce with low food mileage, and minimal (if any) controlled atmosphere storage. It’s the next best thing to having a veggie patch in your backyard!

We can always let you know what products come from our farm. Have a look at the Our Farm section of our website, which outlines what we’re currently harvesting, and what’s coming up. Your weekly newsletter (included with your box) will also have details about what produce is currently being harvested from our farm.

In relation to other products, we often source the same item from a number of growers in any given week. This allows us to match supply with demand, and makes sure that we are always delivering high quality product. Each product is generally sourced from a region, have a look at the description for the product you are interested in to find out more.

When sourcing produce, we try to follow a simple rule – the more locally produced the product, the better it is. It’s a rule that means there is a reduced food mileage attached to the product, and that you get fresher, healthier produce.

In line with these aims, we’ve designed the Farm Fresh box (packed with produce only from our farm) and the Victoria’s Best box (which contains only Victorian products).
