Veggie Box Membership
Become part of our CSA family to receive 7 boxes per season, provided fortnightly. Your funding will allow our farm to provide nutrient-dense, ethically grown food to our community. Your membership means you will be able to pick up our fresh produce every fortnight from one of our pickup points across Sydney and the Blue Mountains.
🥒🍅 Current Season is Autumn Membership: March – June 2026
Spring/Summer Membership: Early Oct – Early Jan (Christmas week off)
Please order by the Monday prior to the first box. See below for locations/dates
Your membership gives you the option to pick up your share of fresh produce every fortnight from one of our pickup points across Sydney and the Blue Mountains, or at your office with our new Business Subscription.
FAQs:
What period of time (start/finish dates) does the season membership cover?
Subscription commitment lasts for 3 months. After this, you can cancel anytime.
How many deliveries will be made during the Autumn membership period?
Delivery is every fortnight.
There are 7 deliveries.
How does the rolling subscription work?
Subscription works like a mobile phone or streaming service, where money is deducted from your account each time a box is delivered. We ask that you give us 1 month's notice to end the subscription so we can adapt our planting schedule. If you have to stop due to personal reasons lease reach out to let us know. Deliveries stop for 3 months over winter and commence again in spring.
When does the next season start?
The first pickups for Autumn will be:
- For our Bronte Market or your Sydney business on Wednesday, the 11th of March.
- For Lawson and/or your Blue Mountains Business on Thursda,y the 13th of March.
- For Kurrajong Heights or your Hawkesbury Busines,s Friday the 6th of March.
What happens if I am sick or can't pick up my box?
If people are not able to collect their box, we can donate it to someone of their choice. Since the produce is grown specifically for them, it must be harvested that week.
All produce is picked the previous day or that morning, so you can expect it to be much fresher than store-bought produce. Shelf life depends on appropriate storage, weather during harvest, type of vegetable (leafy greens have a shorter shelf life, for example, a zucchini could last up to a month in the fridge) and how quickly it is refrigerated. Our chosen varieties are grown for flavour and nutritional density rather than shelf life. We also allow our produce to ripen on the plant, which increases nutritional value and taste. We choose this over harvesting early for easier transportation.
People who live alone who want to participate – would the couples box be too much for one person?
One person can get through a couples' box, we recommend juicing and eating the produce raw. One customer told me he lost 7kg after a season as a result of eating more veg and not having room for junk food.
Are the vegetables organic?
We grow all our veggies to the organic standard but at this stage to not pay for certification. We prefer to put our energy into free open days and workshops for our members so we can explain why we farm the way we farm. After coming to the farm to talk with us I’m sure you will see that our dedication to growing the best food in the most environmentally conscious way goes beyond any certification.
At what point do subscribers know what to expect in their fortnightly box (eg a week before or a day before?)
Due to the erratic nature of farming, we try not to make exact claims as to what people will get before harvest day, but we will let them know which crops are likely to be ready. Most people find this more engaging, and we hope it builds understanding of what it means to farm.

WHAT IS A CSA?
What We Need & What You Get
All funds raised are used to take the farm to the next level of production so that we can provide more members with quality fortnightly boxes of produce that replace their normal fresh food shopping. The Bilpin farm is perfect for growing your delicious, household veggies while the Mt Tomah farm has well-established berries, figs and nut trees.
Most importantly, a CSA is an opportunity for you to be part of the farm and get to know who is growing your food. I hope you will be part of the farm for years to come as we grow and improve together.
