The perfect Christmas starts with the perfect ingredients ...

Moving on...
After nearly 14 years, Seasonal Fruit & Veg Boxes will be closing at the end of this month. The last delivery will be Monday, the 29th of July 2024.
When I started the business local farms grew a wide range of fruit and vegetables, and field prices were often much lower than those available
at supermarkets. Hence there was a rational basis for a company to offer local food to local people.
Times have changed.
I would like to thank over 500 customers, many of whom received their first delivery in recent years.
In particular, I would like to thank those customers whom have been receiving a regular delivery for over a decade.

Free Range Eggs
From hens at Beechwood Farm, Hampstead Norreys, Newbury.
"Its all about the hen and the ability to express her natural behaviour. This includes roaming outside, dust bathing, laying her eggs in a nest
and roosting at night. Our hens have access to the outdoors from sunrise to sunset."
Beechwood Farm would love the empty egg boxes back. So please return them to Seasonal Fruit & Veg Boxes and we will take them back to Beechwood Farm.

Unlike traditional box schemes, there is no need to make any commitment to purchase on a regular basis from us. Your orders can be as infrequent and irregular as you wish. If you want just one box this year that is fine by us.
However, if you would like to receive a regular delivery, as the majority of our customers do, please let us know and we will add your details to our weekly or fortnightly round.
changes
The contents of your box can be found on this website a minimum of six days in advance of delivery. If there's anything in the box you do not want just tell us and we will change it.
delivery
There is no need to be in when we deliver your produce. If you are away from home we will simply leave your produce in a suitable place away from the elements, such as in a porch or with a neighbour.
cancellation
You can cancel your order by text, phone or email at any time up to midday on the day of delivery.
plastic
We do not use plastic packaging of any description. Your produce will arrive in a traditional wooden fruit box, packed only in cardboard and paper bags. The wooden box is returnable.
What People Say About Us
"I've been buying veg boxes regularly from It's Your Go for at least a couple of years now.
As well as receiving a very reliable service, the produce is always of very high quality and is fresh and tasty.
I don't specify what veg I would like to order because I know I can rely on IYG to provide me with a good selection of seasonal veg.
Highly recommended!"
