Coming soon - extras!
I am pleased to see that customers serviced from the Andover / Norton distribution farm are taking advantage of our extras offer. Standardised meat boxes are never going to be for everyone but the associated economies of scale do allow us to cover the fixed costs reasonably easily. Extras should give us the best of both worlds. Hopefully, you will be able to get what you want and we will be able to get it to you with out having to price ourselves out of the business...

The Riverford Meat Box - small, medium and large

click here for this fortnight's box contents, or here for next fortnight's contents

When we first launched the Riverford Meat Box it took the form of a fortnightly changing box containing a roast, a selection of meat cuts, and family friendly items such as sausages and bacon - therby satisfying household culinary needs from Sunday lunch to mid-week suppers and hearty breakfasts. We have held fast to that initial concept in the form of the small, medium and large boxes which continue to change fortnightly for variety and to reflect seasonal changes in cooking style (braising meats for winter later make way for burgers for the barbecue in summer, for example). They vary in size to suit different household requirements and provide sufficient meat for a fortnight of balanced, nutritious meals. These boxes come complete with the Newsletter and a Riverford 'taster' - a culinary freebie from us to you.

In direct response to customer demand for a gluten-free box we introduced the Nothing but Meat Box - as a derivative of the medium meat box it contains only meat cuts and no processed items. The Nothing but Meat Box is now available together with an optional Breakfast Pack (this is not gluten-free).

The Riverford Freezer and Steak Boxes

We listen to our customer feedback and in response to it we introduced firstly the Riverford Organic Freezer Boxes, and most recently the Organic Steak Box. These boxes are for those who wish to bulk buy their favourite meat for home freezing - the Organic Steak Box being at the luxury end of the meat box spectrum. They are very competitively priced.
