How It StartedÂ
It all started with a box of avocados. In 2020, Susannah noticed that prices in the Cape were high and the quality wasn’t quite what she knew from the farm. So, she sent a box of farm-fresh avocados to her son at UCT—and friends of his started asking for avos too. Sitting at an ultimate frisbee game, Susannah had a long chat with one of the early founders of Food Clubs. That conversation led to trial shipments of 14kg boxes of avocados.
There were a few hiccups (yes, some guacamole arrived where avos should have been), but once the right boxes were found, Fresh From the Farm was officially born in March 2020. Over the years, our customer base has grown, and our food groups remain a major part of our customer base.
