It includes:
Staples such as organic potatoes, onions, carrots and brussels sprouts in the small box, plus parsnips, savoy cabbage and turnips in the medium and large
All you need for a salad post the big day, with a winter salad leaf mix, fennel and more
A mix of tasty cooking green leaves perfect for a stir fry including kale and chard
Bunches of fresh beetroot which are all looking really great in the garden
Plus leeks and celery, some tasty parsley, and more!
Boxes will be available from 4pm on Tuesday 23 December at the usual collection points in Letterkenny, Stranorlar, Donegal Town, Ardara, Killybegs and Glenties. Please note there is a limited number of spaces available.
Add ons to boxes - Organic chestnut mushrooms, extra veg and homemade bread
We are delighted to have some great add ons to the boxes - chestnut mushrooms, potatoes, onions, carrots, parsnips, savoy cabbage, Brussel sprouts. Plus also homemade bread with spelt and rye available, made with either sourdough or yeast.

Gift vouchers
Know someone that likes vegetables and lives in south Donegal? You can give them Gift Vouchers from Shy By Nature Farm worth 20 euros, about the value of the Summer standard vegetable box. If you would like gift vouchers for a different amount, you can email us on shybynaturefarm@gmail.com, and we can arrange.
Soil and soul garden mornings, plus volunteering
We’ve been trying out a new event - Soil and Soul mornings - which has a bit of gentle gardening, chat, tea and scones all together (see poster below). It’s been working great and will be continuing on Wednesdays to Christmas. If you’d like to join contact Catherine on 0877771621.
Lastly, the last big harvest of 2025 is coming. If you are interested in helping out, do get in contact by email shybynaturefarm@gmail.com or whatsapp Ronan on 0894032153. It should be a cracking one, and I’m sure there will be some mulled wine to keep us warm ;)
