    Has anyone ordered from this website before? Crowdfarming website

    I've never ordered anything like this online and I always see them being advertised. Would be interested in getting some decent avocados as the ones in the supermarket are poor. They've got other seasonal fruit too.

    I've ordered from them and I got an email yesterday to say that my delivery of olive oil is on the way. I ordered more olive oil for my parents and that arrived before Christmas. I think it's a fantastic initiative - your money is going to the farmer rather than to a corporate middle man and you can choose who you order from based on their farming practices.

    The products do sound much better for all involved. I normally get my olive oil from some italian trader but I'd rather buy direct. I'm sure the produce is grown and harvested with better environmental and working conditions to. I might get some fruit as I don't think I could eat 4kg of avocados.
