If you answered “yes” and live in the Ipswich or Woodbridge area then The Oak Tree Community Farm could be for you! We offer the benefits of an allotment with the ease and fun of working as part of a team.
We’re far more than a veg box scheme – we’re a community. All of the options include a weekly (or fortnightly) veg box containing ultra-fresh veg, grown without artificial fertilisers or pesticides, and the opportunity to buy optional free range eggs, cut flowers, PYO soft fruit when in season. You can also join in our social activities, and you are automatically signed up to our weekly members email newsletter which tells you what is going on at the farm – there’s always a lot happening!
