The team

Out of the Box is a community-run initiative.

 

Our aims are to:

• connect you to your local regenerative farmers
• spread the word on the benefits of eating local, seasonal food grown to organic and biodynamic principles
• support our local small scale growers
• be friendly to the environment
• support other community food projects through revenue raised

Out of the Box is operated by Food Next Door Co-op, whose mission is Nurturing land, nourishing people. We are run by passionate volunteers from our local community.

The Food Next Door team have facilitated projects such as:

• Sunraysia Burundian Garden
• Community Water Bank
• Community Connections Garden
