Boxa Greens
Description
Market fresh produce every Tuesday. Boxa Greens, seasonal fruit & veg, packed ready for pick up from Glenhaven. Quality, variety and value in one Boxa. Boxa Greens supply fresh fruit and vegetable boxes direct from the growers to customers. My husband is an agent at Sydney Flemington Markets and has worked alongside his father for 18 years. It’s a family affair with four boys running the business. My background is in marketing and account management. I have worked in various fields including promotions and merchandise, newspapers and shopping centres.
Here is where the Boxa Greens idea grew from; Bruno, my husband would bring me an inspiring box of hand-picked produce weekly from the markets. Cooking up healthy meals was exciting and I sought out new recipes to cook with the fruit and veg I was receiving. I wanted to share what I had with others. It has since grown from there.
Our aim is to supply high quality seasonal produce to ensure customers are receiving great value for money. We use our buying power to maximise the amount of seasonal produce purchased. This allows us to supply good quality and higher quantities on various items per box.
We also want to encourage customers to be adventurous with their cooking and be exposed to fruit/veg they may not normally pick up during their weekly shop.
Boxa Greens Options:
We have created the Boxa Grande to suit an average size family. It is valued at $55 and includes up to 12 varieties of vegetables and 6 varieties of seasonal fruit. We include the most popular produce items which customers would pick up at a grocer or supermarket on a weekly basis e.g. 4-5 x potatoes, 3 x onions, 1 x lettuce, 4 x cucumbers, 6 x tomatoes, mushrooms, red capsicums, 6 x apples, 8 x bananas, 6 x mandarins etc.
The box inclusions rotate weekly; mainly the greens and a fruit item. For example one week customers may receive beans, asparagus and a pineapple and the following week receive a bunch of spinach, zucchini & kiwi fruit.
For customers with smaller families we offer a Medium Boxa valued a $40. This option includes fewer quantities however, still offers the variety of common weekly produce items. Couples or singles would suit our $25 Mini Boxa.
If your family consumes a lot of fruit, we also offer the Fruit Boxa only valued at $40. There is also a Boxa Veg as well for $45.
Are you interested in boxes of a single fruit or veg item? Ask us for the weekly price and kilos per box and we can also source this for you.

Every Saturday customers will receive a weekly e-mail with the proposed produce list.

I'm slightly obsessed with warm salads these days. The combination of endive, with its slightly bitter leaves and kale, dressed in olive oil and lemon juice was perfect. On top I tossed through warm oven roasted vegetables. A medley of capsicums, fennel, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, potatoes, carrots, garlic & onion. The vegetables were seasoned with combination of dried oregano, paprika, sea salt, pepper and fresh thyme.

The simplicity of a stir fry makes them very appealing for a week night meal. Here we have a combination of vegetables including capsicum, zucchini, carrots, beans, choy sum, shallots, garlic stir fried with sesame oil and Tamari (soy sauce) and a few splashes of water so the harder vegetables cook through. We tossed through some vermicelli rice noodles (cooked in boiling water for 1 minute), served with pan fried baby snapper and garnished with fresh coriander. Tasty, nourishing and best of all satisfying.
