Question 1

How do Drop Off Dinners work?

Accepted Answer

We write the final menu each week, from available local produce, and with regard to your own groups needs.  In the sample menu you refer, both proteins are served with the range of sides.
 
The food is delivered on platters and ready to share, with hot things delivered in oven proof glass dishes, and packed inside our black insulated boxes.  If you keep the lid closed, the mains will stay perfectly hot for up to 3 hours, so there is no rush or fuss about the whole thing.
 
All you need do is return our cleaned platter the following day or as arranged.

Question 8

Do you have any sustainability practices?

Accepted Answer

Indeed we do.  Buying direct from farmers, we encourage closed loop packaging.  Our purchasing policy is local organic, local, organic, conventional, in that order.  All livestock should have a good life before their one bad day.  Food scraps are composted on site and used to aid growth in our veggie beds.  Constant attention is paid to waste and non compostable plastic use.  We currently send up to one domestic rubbish bin to landfill every 2 weeks.
