Apricot Season

New season apricots have arrived and feature in the first hilbarn fresh produce box of 2010, along with cherries, red silver beet, basil, watercress, new Pink Eye potatoes, cucumber, lettuce, new season garlic and carrots. We'll share our favourite recipe for apricot tart if you share what you do with your apricots...

How We Work

- We provide absolutely the freshest local produce available to us.

- All our produce is sourced from local growers who set their own prices.

- We exclude produce only if it is of poor quality or if the price is too high to offer value to you our customer.

- Your produce order is carefully packed into your $30 or $55 family size box. (Add $5 to each box for deliveries outside Launceston).

- If you wish you can trial one box. After sampling, the minimum subscription is 4 boxes. This way we can source the best produce for you in advance of your delivery.

- We will share new Pick-Up Points with you as they become available. See 'What We Provide' (above) for current Pick-Up Points.

- Each delivery includes a box (please return your box for recycling).
- Once you have subscribed, delivery will begin after payment is received.

- Produce is delivered either weekly or fortnightly after subscribing.

- Box contents cannot be customized.

- No refunds are available for subscriptions.

- A credit may be provided in the case of an incorrect delivery.
