IPM Fruit & Veg
Our range of IPM fruit and veg
With wider options and affordability in mind, we’ve recently launched an IPM mixed box, an IPM veg only box and individual IPM fruit & veg (below). They are sourced from selected farmers who integrate IPM (integrated pest management) practices to encourage beneficial microorganisms and a healthier farm environment. By working more closely with natural systems, farms that embed IPM practices can greatly reduce their reliance on chemical and synthetic inputs, and we're keen pass on that choice to our Fair Food customers!
