We have a vegie co-op! That's right, a mixed box of veggies for the week for $15! All you need to do is place your order by Thursday evening, lend a hand with a job which keeps the co-op alive, and pick up your box from the Wholefoods Grocery any time from Monday 4pm (we have a fridge if you can't make it in 'til Tuesday or Wednesday). There are bigger boxes available too! Have a look at our price list
We source mostly (usually all) organic veg, and as local as possible, delivered to you at wholesale price (+10% for freight to uni). The contents of the box varies weekly, but always includes some staples (e.g. onions, potatoes, carrots, pumpkin, sweet potato...), some greenery (bok choi, kale, silverbeet, spinach...), and many other bits and pieces . We're including a bit more fruit in the box now too, as available.
How do I get involved?
Come and chat to co-op members on a Monday 3-4pm, or ask the good Wholefoods staff & vollies for more info. There's an info flier in the Grocery, too.
