Farm Box
A crate of whatever is actually good this week.

Next week follows the plots, not a plan. Rain moves this by days, not weeks.
Why it changes
A vegetable is cheapest, best and least travelled in its own season. Fixing a list in advance means buying out of season somewhere else and trucking it in, which is exactly the thing the line exists to avoid.
- Published the evening before cutting
- Swap or skip anything before the 9 PM close

How the box runs
See the whole line
Cut to your order, not to a forecast.
The box is the fresh-produce stretch of The Agriyana Line, packed as one crate instead of loose items. Eighteen hours, gate to door.

Whatever is ordered by nine is the quantity that gets cut. Nothing beyond it is harvested.

On the partner plots, in the dark, while it is still cool enough for a leaf to hold.
Mon · 6 AM
Graded and weighed
Sorted by size and blemish at the collection centre. Rejects go to the compost line.
Mon · 7 AM
Down to four degrees
The step that decides whether a leaf reaches you crisp or limp. Held there from here on.

Bulk crates broken into household boxes at the city hub and routed for the evening run.
Mon · 6 PM
At your door
Weight slip on the label. What you paid funds next season's inputs on the same plots.
Sizes
Three sizes, one delivery day.
Pick the one that matches how many people you actually cook for. Every size skips, pauses and cancels the same way.

Box prices are indicative placeholders until the real weekly rates are wired in, and the crate weights above are typical rather than guaranteed. Individual produce prices in the shop are placeholders too.

Not ready for a weekly crate.
Everything in the box is sold on its own too, at the same rate. Order by 9 PM for next-day delivery.
