About Cornish Harvest
Cornish Harvest Philosophy
Keith grew up living and working on his family farm, so he knows how important it is to have the support of the local community.
At Cornish Harvest our philosophy is simple; “Use local suppliers only, be they farms or markets, and help create a long term, sustainable future for farmers and producers in Cornwall”.
Other benefits of sourcing local produce?
- Seasonal produce is not only better for the environment (think less food miles, packaging and storage) but it also retains more nutrients and flavour than it’s well-travelled or forced counterparts.
- Harvested from the field and delivered to you within 48 hours. You can’t get much fresher than that.
- Food harvested locally may be allowed to ripen longer, being perfect for eating when it reaches you.
- We are able to see and select the smaller farms using sustainable, more environmentally friendly growing methods rather than intensive, large scale production methods.
- Vegetables tend to be hand graded so, whilst wonky veg is definitely ok with us (expect some giant turnips and carrots that aren’t always poker straight), you are less likely to receive anything you aren’t satisfied with – and we are always more than happy to replace in the rare case that you are not.
Fresh, Natural, Sustainable Living!

Customer Testimonials:
Jo Andrews:
"Locally sourced, amazing quality veg. I couldn’t believe the difference in flavour when I used to buy from the supermarket compared to the Cornish Harvest, in particular the potatoes! Getting my fresh veg box is the highlight of my week!"
Caz Matthews:
"It is great to know that the veg I am eating has literally come from up the road. The delivery process is very convenient, with work and school runs, it is lovely to know that the veg will be delivered without me needing to be in to receive it. Fantastic, fresh, tasty, high quality veg!"
Rosie Southgate:
"These boxes taste delicious. Even my kids are asking for a veg box every week, and for most parents out there, getting your children to eat vegetables is not an easy feat! It is also pleasing to know that I am supporting local farmers and businesses and the reward, fresh, delicious vegetables!"
Mrs J Read:
"I can only believe that the produce tastes better than shop bought because it is so fresh. I feel as though the supermarkets don’t give farmers a fair price for their produce and by purchasing my veg from the Cornish Harvest I get better tasting veg and know that the farmers are getting a fair price. Ordering is easy, and if I am not in I come home to lovely veg due to the convenient delivery service. I love the guarantee you give that if I'm not happy with anything that you will replace it. Couldn’t be happier!"
Marie Rose Hillier:
"I find that the Cornish Harvest veg has much more flavour and tastes great! Much better than shop bought. Supporting local farmers and producers is an absolute must for me which is why I like that all the veg is locally sourced. It is very easy to order and the produce is fresh and tastes great."
Juliet Edwards:
"A carrot that actually tastes like a carrot! All different shapes and sizes as they should be, and equally delicious. The vegetables are all freshly picked and super tasty! It makes life a lot easier knowing I don’t have to be in to receive my box so I am able to order one whatever my schedule is on that day. I love the ease of being able to order a fresh box and change the contents if appropriate. And supporting local farmers and producers is important to me."
Em Bee:
"You can definitely taste the difference between fresh veg and shop bought. The veg from the Cornish Harvest is really tasty! I work on weekdays so knowing the veg will be in the porch weekly is one less thing to think about. The service you supply is top class, the veg looks and tastes great. It is easy to contact you via social media to add or change an order and I am really happy to support local businesses rather than large corporate ones. Great job guys!"
Fiona Foster:
"The veg tastes consistently excellent. There is absolutely no comparison between Cornish Harvest's products and those from any shop, even Waitrose! Not to mention, the delivery process is far better than that of a supermarket I worked in the food industry and I know how much retailers squeeze farmer's margins so I am very happy that the money I spend with Cornish Harvest goes into the local economy. Supremely fresh, high quality, local products, supplied extremely conveniently for a very competitive price. I am a very happy customer. I hope they start doing more products!"
Jemma Cattran:
"The Cornish Harvest veg definitely tastes better and fresher than the supermarket veg. The carrots and beetroot in particular are much sweeter! I like the fact I know where the veg has come from and that it supports local business."
Tasha Ann:
"The fact that the vegetables are so fresh straight from the fields really makes a difference to the taste, not to mention how well they keep. I really like that my food hasn't travelled 100's of miles before reaching my plate, and that I'm supporting the local economy and families. Not having to be in is useful, as we all have busy lives, having said that a friendly chat on delivery is also good when I'm home."
Louise Alway:
"I like the choice of vegetables, the freshness and the convenient delivery process. Definitely good value & knowing we are supporting local farmers is very important."
Sarah Furness:
"I love that the produce is local, seasonal and so fresh. There's nothing like having carrots with earth still on them and when we produce so much lovely veg in Cornwall it's great to know we're eating them here and not sending them half way across the country! Got to be good for the environment and our local farmers! Thanks for continually good service."
Vicki Girling:
"As I work during the day the fact that my box can still be delivered is great. The veg always tastes great however the carrots in particular are lovely! The convenience, price, quality and variety is excellent and there is a good selection of veg. It’s locally grown and I don't have to give my money to the big supermarkets."
