Ever wondered what happens before that lovely box of veg lands on your doorstep? Pour yourself a cuppa, and let's take you behind the scenes of a typical day at Radford Mill Farm.

5:30 AM: Dawn's First Light

The morning chorus hasn't even properly kicked off when our farm team pulls on their wellies. There's something magical about the farm at this hour - just the sound of dew dripping from the polytunnels and the occasional early bird getting their breakfast.

6:00 AM: The Morning Harvest

With well-worn harvest crates in hand, our team heads out to the fields. Every leafy green and root vegetable is hand-picked with care. Today's carrots still have that morning chill, their tops dancing with droplets of dew. The spinach leaves are practically sparkling, and don't even get us started on those perfectly plump tomatoes from the polytunnel.

8:30 AM: Quality Control & Washing Station

Back at the packing barn, it's all hands on deck. Every vegetable gets a proper inspection - we're proper fussy about what makes it into your box. The root veg gets a gentle wash (but we leave just enough soil on those spuds to help them last longer - clever, eh?).

10:00 AM: The Art of Box Packing

This isn't just throwing veg in a box - it's more like playing vegetable Tetris. Our packing team has got it down to a fine art:

• Sturdy roots at the bottom
• Leafy greens carefully wrapped to keep them perky
• Delicate bits safely tucked away at the top
• Any special requests? They're handled with extra care
• 
  

12:00 PM: Customisation Station

This is where your box becomes properly yours. Whether you've swapped out the coriander (not everyone's cup of tea, we know) or added some of our fresh farm eggs, each box gets personal attention. Our system might be high-tech, but there's always a human double-checking your preferences.

2:00 PM: Route Planning

While the morning's been all about the veg, our delivery team's been mapping out the most efficient routes across Bristol. We're not just trying to save diesel - less time on the road means your veg stays fresher. Proper smart, right?

3:00 PM: And They're Off!

Our vans head out, loaded up with the day's bounty. Our drivers know Bristol like the back of their hand - from the steep hills of Totterdown to the winding streets of Clifton. They're not just delivery drivers; they're part of the Radford Mill family, and they probably know your dog's name by now.

By 7:00 PM: Home Sweet Home

Your box arrives at your doorstep, less than 12 hours after some of its contents were still in the ground. Talk about fresh! Inside, you'll find everything carefully packed, seasonal, and ready to inspire your next meal.

The Extra Mile

What makes our boxes special isn't just the fresh, organic produce - it's the care that goes into every step of the journey. From the early morning harvest to the friendly wave from your delivery driver, every person involved takes pride in bringing you the best of what our farm has to offer.

Each box tells a story of sustainable farming, local food systems, and community connection. It's not just a veg box; it's a little piece of Radford Mill Farm, delivered direct to your kitchen.
