Box Divvy is Community owned and run. This is a fruit veg and grocery cooperative. We purchase as a group up to 40% cheaper than supermarkets. It’s a Smart coop and you get more of what you want than a normal coop. Box Divvy is a food box sharing system connecting growers & food producers directly with the Food. It is community owned and run designed to cut your food bill. You join online - there is no registration fee. https://www.boxdivvy.com/ You use an App on your phone or computer or a pad to order. Working with Western Sydney Diabetes Alliance - our aim is to provide accessible, inexpensive good quality fresh food.

4 DAY ORDER CYCLE – FOR Wednesday pick up

Friday 9pm – Order creation
It’s an OPT OUT SYSTEM so if you don’t want an order for the coming week, you must suspend prior to Friday 9pm. Your “WISH LIST VOTE” and any changes you wish to make to your household size must also be done by Friday 9pm. Saturday - Starting Order Published
Login take up to 3 things out and JOIN SPLITS. Monday 9pm - CUTOFF
Orders closed. Cards charged. There are 2 automatic processing’s, if those both decline - a $5 recharge fee is applied as it pays for someone to manually reprocess. You must pay BEFORE pick-up. Wednesday - PICK UP. You must pick up day of delivery at the pick-up time or arrange with Hubster. Home Delivery offered but please ask first. PAYMENTS
You must pay for your order once committed to an order cycle. Once in an Order Cycle we cannot withdraw an order. It is your responsibility to suspend the correct weeks. ORDERING SYSTEM
Dead simple. You share boxes online using the App. SUSPENDING ORDERS
When you tick the date, wait, it will turn red to confirm suspension. You’re expected to order weekly or fortnightly. STARTING ORDER
There’s a Starting Order based on your weekly ‘wish list’ VOTE and you can take out up to 3 things. Every week BEFORE Order Creation do a Wish List Vote to help Hubster (person who organisers Hub) to set up Starting Order. SHARE BOXES known as SPLITS
If you wish for more, you join Splits and share boxes. You can suggest a box to share or to your Hubster. Such as saying to your group: “Who’d like to share a box of apples?”

At order cut-off you pay automatically online (Visa or Mastercard & Secure Eway Payment gateway) then boxes from growers & food wholesalers come to the Hubster’s house for packing. You pick up from their place or they may offer home delivery. FRUIT, VEG, BREAD, EGGS – Order, pay, receive this week
GROCERIES – Order, pay, receive next week due to fresh roasting of coffee and made to order. BREAD baker direct – Minimum HUB order total is $30
GROCERIES wholesaler direct – Minimum HUB order is $75. MEAT AND SEAFOOD (NEW) – Order every 4 weeks. READ THE AMOUNTS YOU ARE PURCHASING
Please check carefully if the items are single, handfuls, 500gm, 1 kg etc. Don't assume it's by one item. EXAMPLE: Cherries sold by the box, make sure you’re not putting in 5 thinking it's handfuls when it's boxes. Read the descriptions please. EXTRAS
There are ALWAYS extras as the box belongs to members so your Hubster will divvy extras when available. There is also usually a SWAP box - if you forget to customise your Starting Order, you can throw in some apples and take out some carrots that someone else did not want. You will get great value. COMMUNITY BOX
Many Hubster’s ask members if this SWAP BOX can become a COMMUNITY KINDNESS BOX given to a family in need. This is part of the Social Enterprise experience by being part of the Hub. NOT WANT AN ORDER? There are no contracts, you can suspend orders when you don’t want them. WANT EXACTLY 1 tomato 2 oranges? Then Box Divvy is not for you. This is a coop and things are in handfuls NOT exact items. You need to be flexible but you'll always get good value. We are a group of community minded people wanting to change the food system. Reduce packaging and pay our farmers fairly. By reducing our carbon footprint by 90% this means we buy in bulk as a group and then share it. We need to be a bit flexible. You will know roughly what you will get but you can’t get exact. We have a Packing Guide but the numbers will change as produce is smaller or larger. Mostly you will get extras overall. HOW DO I KNOW WHAT I SPEND? EASY. You will pay the STARTING ORDER PLUS if you join in SPLITS or ADD Groceries. At the bottom of MY ORDER you will see the MAX you will pay if all your SPLITS get over the line, any groceries you’ve ordered and the Starting Order. You can reduce the SPLITS or Groceries you joined BEFORE CUTOFF. PACKAGING
Much of the produce comes loose so please provide your Hubster with a NAME LABELLED BAG: ALSO - calico/wash nets to put handfuls in (do not expect your Hubster to provide paper bags please): Bring in your old icecream containers, for example, for the Hub to put soft stuff in. If you get an item in plastic, recycle it in your soft plastic bin. We don't interrupt the packing from the farmer. Farmers are trying to work out how to transport produce and it can’t always be plastic free - for the moment. The Sugar Cane bags are not strong, don't last and definitely not airtight. Cardboard and paper fall apart. New technology is being worked on. NOT FOR ME
If after you’ve tried it and Box Divvy is not working the way you want, then you can cancel membership. So? Join our group to make a difference. You have the power to do so. Cut your food bill significantly – Wow! The goal: to cut your food bill, without compromising on the quality, freshness and variety of food. With minimal effort, minimal packaging and food miles, and still paying farmers and suppliers a fair price for their produce.

Threw together something for an early lunch, to get me through the rest of my Box Divvy pack.

Lions mane, Shiitake, button mushrooms, fried off in some garlic and coconut oil. With fresh thyme and chives from my garden and some ham thrown in for good measure.

A couple of new items to the marketplace and first time ordered items too.

These gorgeous Truss tomatoes have been getting turned into BBQ sauce.

Only 4 tomatoes in each batch to make two bottle of sauce.... 1 is already in the fridge and was used on pizza bases last night 🤤
So one more batch of BBQ sauce and then the remaining 8 will become tomato paste.

$10 for this 5 kg tray = absolutely winning!!!

Gorgeous bunches of watercress now available!!

Thank you Box Divvy Barrack Heights - Bass for the suggestions!!

New comer this week: Watercress!🤩✨👌🏼

Watercress taste a little bit like rocket but milder (a little peppery, lemony and 🥬 It’s a great addition in a salad with a honey mustard dressing (try the Beerenberg Honey Mustard dressing for an easy pairing!) and some fresh vegetables (try minced fennel, avocado, radish, mango and/or oranges and grapefruit!). 🍯

Some people like to make pesto with it, or even sauté it a little with some garlic to serve as greens with a nice piece of meat. It takes the slight bitterness out of it!🥬🤓

With all those ideas, it’s worth grabbing a bunch this week for 2.94$ and trying it out! 💁‍♀️Fresh ideas are always welcomed with the warmer days ahead of us!🤩☀️

28/10/2024

💚💚💚All the more reason to tell everyone you know about Box Divvy and UNSUPERMARKET - direct from the farmers!

21/10/2024

Christmas hampers for the win!!

Generally I will start buying extra pantry goods now to make it a whole lot easier on the Christmas budget.
Then it is only the fresh fruits that I will get in our last order before Christmas.

**TIP ask your Hubster for small or medium boxes now so you can store you pantry items and then you have boxes for your hampers come Christmas 😉

Can anyone tell me when the Cara Cara oranges finished up??

Just found these beauties in the fruit bowl and they are so juicy and delicious 😋

27/09/2024

I have never seen black garlic, smelt it or tasted it.... but I am going to get some!!
I'll let you all know what I make with it.

Did you really think we'd make it a week without an addition to our range and options???

Nope! Me either.

Thanks to Box Divvy, the likelyhood of members having to shop anywhere else is narrowing down to a teeny weeny miniscule little slice week after week.

Are you using your Broccoli stems??

If not, why not?! 🤷🏽‍♀️

The stems/stalks is the delivery route for the nutrients to grow the flower head of the broccoli. It is a fantastic way to bulk out meals in volume and nutrition.

Plus. You have paid for it. 😊

What's the latest Box Divvy addition?

𝗞𝗮𝗯𝘂𝗹 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿 𝗕𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘆’𝘀 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗔𝗳𝗴𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗶 𝘄𝗼𝗼𝗱-𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱.

Flour, salt, yeast, water: 4 simple ingredients will transport you to a whole new world.

Also known as snowshoe bread (on account of their shape) these flatbreads are baked in a wood-fired stone oven - hence the slight charring.

Baked by Asad and his family, they fled the Taliban in 2010 and set up shop in Auburn. His father and grand-father before him were bakers, and he is continuing the 40-year family tradition.

Some have described this bread as a hybrid between Turkish bread and Indian naan, but this description does not do it justice. It's soft, somewhat fluffy, definitely rustic, moor-ish, incredibly versatile, and despite the simple ingredients, they seem to stay fresh for 3-4 days. You can crisp them up in the oven, heat them in the microwave for a softer result, or even toast them.

You can cover them with cheese and toast them under a hot grill. Eat them with falafel or lamb kofta, some hummos and tabouleh; turn them into a hamburger with Handler’s meat patties. Or eat them with your favourite curry (as in: Belicious Afghani Lamb curry). The Afghanis themselves use them to mop up any leftover sauce and rice from their plate, like a pre-rinse.

Above all, they are so delicious, you can't stop eating them. Ingredients: wheat flour, wholemeal flour, salt, yeast, water. You’ll find them under Bakery ➡️ Bread ➡️ Wraps & Flatbread. Two loaves per pack for a combined weight of around 760g. Baked and delivered fresh daily.

YUM!
