How it all works


  • Our delicious seasonal food is sourced from around 80 local farmers around Brisbane
  • The harvest is delivered fresh to the Food Connect Homestead each week by the farmers and small freight companies.
  • We pack it into various sizes of fruit and veg boxes.
  • The boxes and yummy grocery products are delivered to our network of City Cousins (families, schools or community centres) around South East Queensland on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
  • Subscribers collect their boxes from their local City Cousin and get the chance to meet like-minded neighbours for a chat.
  • Farmers and subscribers meet on our regular farm tours.
