Pay It Forward 2022 Update
When we first started out in April 2020, one our of core goals was to bring fresh produce at great value to everyone and we meant e v e r y o n e. We set up free delivery and no minimum spend, so it didn’t matter what your budget was or how far out in the sticks you were, we’d get a delivery to you. This also meant that if your budget had nothing left to give, and we all felt the squeeze during the pandemic, that you should still have access to fresh and healthy produce for you and your family.

The Benefits of Shopping Locally
At Cotswold Veg Box, it’s no secret that we make the most of the incredible produce grown in the Cotswolds and Vale of Evesham. Obviously it tastes better and lasts longer when it’s fresh but there are many more reasons why shopping local is best.
Pay It Forward 2020 Update
In October, we offered veg boxes free of charge during half term to any families who rely on free school meals. Following the incredible response to our post on social media, we wanted to update you on everything CVB have done 'behind the scenes' since then.
