WHY LOCALLY-PRODUCED FRUIT AND VEG BOXES ARE ENJOYING NEW-FOUND POPULARITY –

Up until around two months ago a vegetable box delivery from a local greengrocer’s would have been a fairly niche service, usually the domain of trendy “foodies” or eco-warriors keen to reduce their food’s carbon footprint. Since lockdown made going to the supermarket a bit of an ordeal, however, the popularity of the humble veg box has exploded among the general population. (The Courier)
