FAQs
Where do Nearly Naked Veg deliver?
We deliver everywhere in the United Kingdom but not to PO Boxes. That includes Scotland (including the highlands) and Northern Ireland.
Is Nearly Naked Veg organic?
No.
At Nearly Naked Veg, we recognise the importance of sustainable and responsible food sourcing. While some studies, as referenced in a press release from Cranfield University titled "100% organic farming could increase greenhouse gas emissions", suggest that organic farming can have a higher carbon footprint than traditional farming due to lower yields, we believe in a balanced approach to environmental stewardship.
Our commitment to locally sourced produce helps reduce transportation emissions, contributing to a smaller carbon footprint overall. We also consciously minimise our packaging to limit waste and ensure the utmost freshness and quality of our products.
By buying directly from our local growers, we support fair pricing and sustainable farming in our community. This direct partnership allows for fresher produce with an extended shelf life compared to typical supermarket offerings and promotes the growth and selection of fruit and vegetable varieties chosen explicitly for their rich, unique flavours over mass production.
Moreover, our growers practice a 'spray to cure' method, which minimises the use of sprays and other interventions, reducing potential environmental impacts. This approach aligns with our mission to deliver fresh, flavourful, and environmentally conscious produce to our valued customers.
At nearly Naked Veg, we aim to balance offering high-quality, flavourful produce and reducing our environmental impact. Your support allows us to continue these practices and make a difference in our local food system.
