About Veg Box Recipes

VegBox-Recipes.co.uk is a website for people who are into organic, seasonal, local food.

It has hundreds of seasonal recipes, a free seasonal food guide, a picture gallery, to help people identify mystery veggies, and plenty of advice on what to do with them, once they've found them!

Veg Box Recipes consistently ranks in the top 5 websites in Google, worldwide, for seasonal recipe searches. Try searching for "butternut squash", "beetroot" or "Swiss chard" to see what we mean.

The site now has over 125,000 unique visitors each month, looking for ideas on going organic, seasonal and local, making it one of the top green websites in the country.

The site is run by Clare and Andy Jaques. Clare is a freelance food writer and she also writes about all the tricky decisions involved in raising "green children".

As consumers become more aware of the environmental impact of their purchasing and lifestyle decisions, Veg Box Recipes is an invaluable resource for anyone wanting to go greener on how they eat. Visitors return regularly to check out new recipes for the latest seasonal ingredients.

We're regularly featured in national press, local publications and green websites and blogs. Most recently, we've been in Delicious magazine and we were the The Ecologist's Website Of The Month in the July / August edition.
