Fancy yourself as a bit of a Girl Guide slash Boy Scout, dib-dobbing your way through life on the look-out for good deeds to be done?
Spare a thought for the farmers and meet Doron Francis, Enterprise Manager of CERES Fair Food – a Melbourne based Organic Box Delivery scheme. She has an alternative to all those prettily packaged groceries neatly arranged on the supermarket shelves.
With Fair Food, those apples, pumpkins and green beans come from Victorian farmers. The organic certification means no nasty chemicals or genetically-modified mutations. Tasty and it’s good for you.
Fair Food walks the walk and all profits help support East Brunswick’s CERES – a not-for-profit, environment/education centre and urban farm.
The best bit: to collect your box of fresh goodies, you have to interact with people. Simply choose from one of the most convenient of over 30 public access ‘Food Hosts’ in the Melbourne area and 15 or more private ‘Food Hosts’ – mostly schools and organisations including City of Melbourne, NAB and Melbourne Water.
They’ll look after it until you get there. Promise.
