Yesterday's not-for-profit veg boxes were harvested and packed in one day by a team of 13 people, and all the produce came from the community farm except the potatoes, which were from an organic farm on the Lizard Peninsula.

| Tenderstem broccoli, which was in the standard veg boxes. |
Standard boxes, which cost £12, contained tenderstem (a.k.a. green sprouting) broccoli, oriental greens, mixed herbs, kale, potatoes, a bunch of radishes (or a kohl rabi), rocket, salad, and spinach.
 |
| Friday was the first pick of our first outdoor salad bed this year. |
Small boxes, which cost £7.70, contained rainbow chard, mixed herbs, potatoes, radishes, salad and spinach.
 |
| Picking spinach, which went into every box. |
Optional extras include our own GM-free eggs (from chickens with outdoor space), milk and yoghurt from Treen organic dairy, our own black bee honey, and a wide range of bread from Vicky's.

| Volunteers busy in the packing shed. |
