Kara O'Reilly writing in the Sunday Times Style magazine says that she is rather biased towards Riverford Farm in Buckfastleigh, Devon, given that her parents have had their veg box delivered from there since it was a tiny local operation back in the 1980's.  My neighbours Jan and Tim Dean - fabulous organic farmers themselves - worked with Guy Watson on the original trial and I'm very lucky to have my own boxes beautifully prepared by Tim. He's a great pal of mine and I often come home to find a little present of a cauliflower of bunch of corriander on my door step.. ahhhh!

Kara also refers to the fabulous Riverford Field Kitchen (usually booked for weeks ahead) and the idea that Guy and his head chef Jane Baxter have for the Travelling Yurt which will pitch up around the country throughout the summers, serving up delicious seasonal meal based on the farm's fresh-from-the-field produce.
