   Whole Box heads up fresh food in Salford
This Thursday, 26th January, the Whole Box begins its first day of supplying fresh, local produce to the people of Salford. Whole Box is Salford’s brand new scheme, bringing fresh fruit and vegetables directly to you and your family. From £5 each week, you will receive a box packed full of fruit and vegetables grown by local farmers, alongside a selection of other whole foods such as nuts, seeds, oils, herbs and spices. If you live in Greengate or Blackfriars, you can sign up to our delivery service, meaning your box will arrive on your doorstep. If you live elsewhere in Salford, you can collect your box every Friday or Saturday from Irwell House, East Philip Street. Over the last few months a team of people have worked incredibly hard to ensure that this social enterprise supports the existing work of agencies, local bodies and community groups in making our area a healthier and better place to live. This is a great opportunity to support healthy lifestyles in the area. We are asking you to support us in two ways. Firstly, by placing an order for a Whole Box this week during our launch phase where every customer counts. Secondly you can help us get the message out to residents of Salford by acting as a champion for the Whole Box, telling people that we are open for business and encouraging them to sign up. Remember as a social enterprise we can focus on supplying the best value possible rather than focusing on profit with any income generated contributing to a wider healthy lifestyles programme at the Biospheric Foundation. Place your orders either via the BF website, where you can leave your details and we will get in touch to arrange delivery or pick up or Text/Mobile - Phone: 07535 245 947.
