Health in Variety
 

How sustainable are you?

We've been told so many times, "Organic, what do you mean? All plants grow out of the soil, that's organic matter!" or "How does what you do differ from any other local farmer?"

Why SELL CSA BOXES INSTEAD OF IN STORES?

After much consideration, we have decided the best way to reduce the amount of single- use packaging we use and to manage the quality control of our products, we will be selling directly to you. This means, we can introduce new seasonal varieties to you as they come and lower prices on certain favourites like Amy’s Salad Mix! Every shipment of vegetables and fruit will be packaged in a paper box with greens now in bags without stickers.

Right now this packaging solution is the most environmentally sound option we could think of, but we are always looking to improve ourselves and are open to any suggestions you have! Send us your ideas!

where do you deliver?

When we launch our Subscription Boxes, they will be available in Belize City, Caye Caulker, San Pedro and Placencia. Drop off points to be announced.

How does your csa box work?

CSA stands for Community-Supported Agriculture. It’s simple.

1. Choose the subscription option that works best for you.

2. Make your first payment: a one time $50 BZD subscription fee + applicable shipping + the month’s rate.

3. Once you subscribe to our box, we deliver fresh, organic and seasonal vegetables and fruit to you weekly or monthly (depending on your subscription choice). Payment must be made before the vegetables will be delivered. You can set up automatic deposit with your bank to make sure you don’t miss a delivery!

Can I gift a subscription?

Yes! Giving the gift of organic fresh vegetables and fruit from a local farmer is a gift that keeps giving (healthy, inspiring, delicious!).

In order to gift a subscription, you must pay in advance for a minimum of 3 months, including shipping + subscription fee. We suggest gifting a 12 month subscription box, as we waive the subscription fee and the recipient will receive a free KO tote bag too! Payment must be made in full, including applicable shipping, before the item can be delivered. Also don’t forget to send us a message for us to include in the first shipment!

How do I cancel my subscription?

If you aren’t satisfied with your subscription, please don’t hesitate to tell us why. We always want to do better! If we can’t resolve your issue and you still would like to cancel your subscription, simply tell us before your next month’s payment. Your one time subscription fee will not be refunded.

I run a hotel. can you sell one off boxes to visitors?

Nothing like welcoming visitors with a box full of organic veggies! If you are interested, please contact us or call us at 501 656 8198 for more details.

i’m a chef. do you still sell wholesale?

At the moment, as we build back up our field, we are being extra selective to avoid over-harvesting. We will make an announcement if things change.

Why do some of my vegetables have a white watermark residue on them? 

We guarantee that we do not use pesticides, herbicides, fungicides or chemical fertilizers when growing our produce! You are welcome to visit to see for yourself!

When you see what looks like white watermarks on your tomatoes or peppers, it's actually the calcium from water that happened to spray on the fruit when we were watering the plants. The reason our water is so high in minerals is because we use pure well water that is pumped directly to our farm from a natural aquifer.  

What are these strange looking vegetables? Why heirloom?

Much like our philosophy on growing, we consider heirloom vegetable varieties (yes, the original guys!) to be important in saving the regional ecosystem and in keeping history alive. 

Many of the heirloom or indigenous varieties we have chosen to grow originate in the Yucatán. This means they were meant to grow here and they love it here! Not only does this help us with pest and disease control, as they are naturally acclimatized, but it also means the people of this great land sustained themselves on these beautiful plants once too!
