Mine comes from Barcombe Nurseries, local Sussex growers.
For anyone who gets, or is thinking of getting, a weekly vegetable box. Talk of suppliers, food miles, ethics and what to cook with all that leftover kohlrabi.

Has always been Able and Cole in the past - as they are very flexible. Haven't got one since we moved to Brighton - thinking about giving Riverford organics a go.
-
I often go to the local farmers market in Ranelagh, Dublin on a Sunday but now I just discovered www.homeorganics.ie where I can order online and they deliver straight to the door:-)
-
I live in Hackney, east London. I get my weekly veg from the Growing Communities - a local organisation which also runs the farmers' market in Stoke Newington. They're really focused on reducing food miles, as well as sourcing fresh, organic produce.
-
I live in Wandsworth London, we've used Able and Cole for about a year now .. but as I've just moved I'm considering my options. A&C are great, but I'd like to see what others there are out there.. I'll try and put my findings back here.

We got ours from http://www.onlyorganic.org/ who are a local supplier to Oxfordshire.
More recently we buy stuff from our local farmers market.

For folks who live in and around Cambridge, <a href="http://www.wildcountryorganics.co.uk/">Wild Country Organics</a> do a good range of boxes

I found a good link off the times website, with a run down of the 35 top organic boxes .. so double win if you like lists too.

I considered using Able and Cole down here in Hove, until I found out they drive here from London. Seemed a bit pointless to me, so I went with Barcombe Nurseries (as local as possible, right?).
-
http://www.rivernene.co.uk/ and the people who run our local franchise (cambs) are really lovely.
-
I've got my past two from Riverford organics http://www.riverford.co.uk
Very tasty they were too :)

We use Able and Cole. After some growing pains a few years back they became a bit unreliable and so we switched to Riverford.
Riverford weren't great - they seemed to send mostly big bags of leaves. After a while we switched back to Able and Cole, who I'm glad to say have fixed their problems and are smashing again.
Om nom nom veggie nom.

North Country Organics (http://northcountryorganics.co.uk/). Lovely eggs too, and Eco products.

Does anyone know if there is something like this in Germany? I would love this...
