How it works

  • First, we source the highest quality, locally produced, seasonal organic food available.  Starting with CERES very own farm, then from eco-friendly growers close to Melbourne – if it’s not available nearby, then from further afield, but always as close to home as possible.
  • The produce is delivered to our warehouse in Northcote where we pack it into a variety of fruit and veg boxes (Family & Budget sizes, Fruit only etc..). For more information see our boxes section here.
  • Members go online to order their food boxes and yummy ‘extras’ such as bread, milk, honey, dry goods etc..(coming soon!)
  • The boxes and extras are then delivered to the Food Host drop-off points around metropolitan Melbourne.
  • Members collect their food boxes from a convenient Food Host location and also get the chance to meet like minded people in their neighborhood. Yay!
  • Community food systems are improved, farmers are paid fairly, environmental threats are reduced and you have access to tasty, fresh & healthy grub! phew..
Our approach creates fewer food miles
