FetchUrVeg
FetchUrVeg is a student-run veg box scheme offering King’s College students and staff seasonal and organic produce, delivered by bicycle.
FetchUrVeg were selected to receive the King’s College London Experience Award from the Dean for their positive contribution to the student community, and the students involved are excited to have tried and shared new recipes with their fellow students. It hasn’t been easy though - the heavy snow during winter meant that some of the farmers FetchUrVeg worked with lost their crop, and as a result they’ve been challenged to find new suppliers to fulfil orders.
Find out more about FetchUrVeg on their Facebook page, and follow them on Twitter and Instagram for more regular updates.
