Our weekly veggie boxes are managed through Ooooby. Head to our sign-up page to choose your subscription and payment plan — everything is handled securely through their platform.

Ooooby (Out Of Our Own Back Yards) is the platform we use to manage our CSA subscriptions. When you sign up for a veggie box, you’ll create an Ooooby account where you can manage your subscription, see what’s in your box each week, and add any extras when they’re available.
It’s a simple, secure way for us to stay organised, so we can spend more time in the field and less on admin.
-
Each box includes a seasonal mix of produce freshly harvested from Common Acre. You’ll receive a list of what’s in your box via Ooooby each week, along with tips, recipes, and news from the farm.

No, but we grow to organic principles: no synthetic fertilisers, pesticides, herbicides or fungicides are used in our veggie beds.
Unfortunately, organic certification is a costly process and is prohibitively expensive for our small not-for-profit.
