You’ll receive a weekly selection of fresh, seasonal produce delivered straight to your door making it easier to eat well, eat Irish, support local, and help fight food waste.

Why Choose Bockety Box

🇮🇪 Irish-grown, first and foremost

We prioritise Irish-grown fruit and vegetables whenever they’re in season, supporting local farmers and keeping food miles low. It’s about reconnecting Irish households with what’s grown right here.

🥕 Fighting food waste, one box at a time

Not everything in your box is “bockety,” but every box helps reduce food waste. We include surplus, oversized, undersized, or cosmetically imperfect produce alongside seasonal favourites, perfectly good food that deserves to be eaten.

🚜 Supporting Irish farmers

We buy directly from Irish growers, giving farmers an outlet for produce that may not meet strict retail specifications or may otherwise go unsold. Your order helps keep more of their harvest in the food system.

📦 Seasonal and always changing

Every week is different. Your box reflects what’s in season, abundant, and available, so you enjoy fresher produce and a closer connection to the growing seasons in Ireland.

🚚 Delivered to your door

We make it easy to eat more fruit and veg, with convenient home delivery across Ireland.
