Delivery
Delivery is $10 for metro areas and $13 for regional areas. Pick-up is free.
We deliver from quite early in the morning up until dinner time on your delivery day. To minimise food miles, our local veg teams (we never use couriers) deliver to everyone in an area on a set day once a week, calculating their routes to maximise efficiency.
You don’t need to be at home – more than 50% of our customers are out when we deliver. The driver will find a safe place to leave your box out of the sun. You will receive an sms notification when your order has been delivered.
You can also use the order notes to let your driver know where to leave your box if you’re not in. We’re used to all sorts of requests. This could be anything from leaving your box with a neighbour or in a shed/garage, to tucking it under a hedge, behind a fence, or putting it into a spare fridge or large esky.
If you would like to update your delivery notes, please email boxes@goodharvest.com.au
We reuse and recycle our delivery boxes and ice packs. Please leave your used boxes and icepacks on the morning of your delivery in the location that you receive your order for our driver to pick up. Thank you!
Ensure that the phone number connected to your account is an Australian mobile number. You should then receive sms notifications with delivery notifications and updates.
We very rarely miss a delivery, so don’t panic if it’s a bit later than usual. If it’s very late in the day, or you haven't receive a text message, get in touch via Live Chat on our website or call us on +61 482 089 011 and we’ll find out what has happened.

We sometimes have to change our delivery rounds in order to balance up the drivers and vehicles that we have available, while keeping the route as carbon efficient as possible. This means that your delivery may arrive earlier or later in the day than it usually does. It could also mean your delivery is moving to a different day of the week.
If your delivery day is changing, we will have tried to reach you by email and sms. If you have any questions or concerns about an upcoming delivery give us a call.
Gift Vouchers
When you buy a gift voucher, it will be sent immediately (normally within five minutes) to the email address associated with your account or order.
You can then forward the gift voucher email to the recipient, or print it off at home to put inside an envelope.
Please make sure to check your spam folders if your email doesn’t arrive within a few minutes.
Gift vouchers can be bought on through the Good Harvest website by choosing the Gift Card Product. Simply add to the cart cart and checkout. Unlike other items on our website, you’ll be able to buy and receive the gift voucher instantly by entering your card details.
If you are a subscriber, you can also add a gift voucher as a one-time purchase to your normal order by clicking on "browse all product" in your customer portal and search for "gift". You can then add to your normal order. (please note gift cards can not be used in the customer portal)
Once payment is complete, we'll email your gift voucher to you. You can forward the email to the recipient, or print it off to give to them on paper.
Please note, the voucher will be sent to the email address used at checkout or associated with your account.
To redeem a Good Harvest gift card simply copy the special code provided in your discount card email and past it into the "discount code or gift card" cell on the final page of the checkout process.
Ethics and Environment
Almost every fresh product we sell is certified organic or verified spray-free. The Good Harvest Organic Farm is certified organic through Organic Food Chain (OFC), and we’re proud to uphold the same high standards in everything we source.
Some produce, such as our Gayndah citrus, comes from trusted small-scale farmers we personally know and have visited. These growers follow natural, chemical-free practices even if they’re not formally certified.
For full transparency, we update our box lists each week to show the organic or spray-free status of every item included. You’ll also find the certification numbers and product status clearly listed on all signage at our farmers markets, so you always know exactly what you’re getting.
If you ever have questions, we are always happy to provide more information.
We are passionate about reducing plastics in the environment and are continually working to minimise plastic use in our packaging and production wherever possible. We only use packaging where absolutely necessary to protect fruit and veg while on it's way to you or keep it fresh.
Most of our produce is packed loosely, and items that require packaging are usually placed in home compostable or paper bags. All of our dry goods are packaged in compostable brown paper bags or home compostable cellophane bags — some of these may look like plastic, but they’re not!
At this stage, a small amount of plastic remains in our ice packs, bags for certain greens, and some recyclable hard plastic containers. So far, we haven’t found compostable alternatives that perform well enough or meet our quality and food safety standards.
We’re always exploring new, sustainable options and look forward to reducing our plastic use even further as better solutions become available.
If you know of a great compostable alternative, we’d love to hear from you!
As we understand based on information from both the National Standard for Organics and Bio-Dynamic Produce, which all Certified organic producers are required to adhere to, and the major certification bodies in Australia, the use of Apeel has not been assessed or approved for use in any Australian certified organic supply chains.
To our knowledge, this product has NOT been approved for Organic production in Australia; no certified Australian organic producer is currently using or has used Apeel.
For our spray free producers, such as our citrus growers, they are small scale, local producers who don't have the scale, funds or necessity to be spraying their product with a coating such as Apeel. Also as the produce we supply is seasonal in variety, produce is not being stored for long periods of time, meaning preservative type coatings are not required. The majority of the produce we supply is harvested from the farms the same week that we deliver it.
