Growing Communities Veg Box - Pick Up Point
Collection times from Grow:
Wednesdays 2pm - 7pm, Thursdays 12pm - 7pm, Fridays 12pm - 6pm
Hackney’s favourite vegbox scheme, Growing Communities, has opened a new collection point at Grow, offering tasty, seasonal produce and convenient collection times, so there’s no need to wait in (or wait up) for your delivery.
Every week, GC sources the best, fresh, pesticide-free produce that’s in season – and pays farmers fairly for it. Prices start at £9 a week.
Richenda Wilson, Growing Communities says :
“The scheme helps you eat tastily, healthily and locally – some of our salad and other veg is grown on organic plots in Hackney parks. You’ll also be creating real, positive change at the same time – supporting farmers who are growing in non-polluting, planet-friendly ways; supporting low-carbon, low-waste distribution; training young people in organic food growing; and helping to campaign for better, fairer food and farming.
“We’re so pleased to be offering a new collection point at Grow as it’s a brilliant space with an ethos that really chimes with our values: putting people and planet above profit. And it’s our only pick-up point where you can enjoy a coffee or a pint on a waterside terrace when you come to collect your bags!”
