sun, sea, sand + a vegboxLiving with a box is pretty f lexible, whatever you’re up to this summer.
Cooking less? Swap to a lighter box or just make up your own order from our full range of weekly essentials. Going on holiday? Treat your vegbox to a change of scenery too - we deliver all around the UK. Or if you prefer, pause your order online and we’ll be ready when you get back.
Growing your own? Bypass a vegbox altogether and top up your harvest from our full range of fruit, milk, eggs and more.
