About ARC Organics
COVID19 UPDATE TO SERVICE.
We are still operating. We now do contactless delivery, please don’t ask the drivers to bring inside or offer to take box out of their hand.
We have added an additional day of delivery to cope with the increase in demand. Tuesday and Thursday delivery available.
There are major issues with supply and price gouging at the entry point of produce to the market, we regrettably have had to increase our prices WE WILL BRING THEM DOWN AGAIN WHEN THE PRICES COME DOWN!
We no longer offer refund or return, we are not allowed to due to the risk of COVID19 contamination risk. I apologize, however this to will be undone once this crises is over.
Please remember that I offer Certified organic produce only, this comes with a price premium as it is if you are expecting a major chain type box of chemical drenched fruit and vegetables please contact me so I can share with you the difference BEFORE you order.
This makes me (Claire, the owner of ARC Organics) so so heart sore! This little business is my baby and I hate seeing it reduced to something akin to the hunger games movie, please know that I am doing my very best with the tools I have to manage through this tumultuous market and time and assure you that my moral compass is eagerly awaiting the time we can get back to normal pricing, normal deliveries and a beautiful community of people who share the passion and love of chemical free, GMO free nourishing produce.
Passionate advocate for chemical free food with a keen interest in reducing waste and plastics in our environment, Canberra mum Claire decided to take matters into her own hands after finding it difficult to find the food she wanted at an affordable price. Through a co-op style system ARC Organics utilize bulk buying power to offer a variety of Australian grown, GMO free, fresh seasonal produce in earth friendly packaging, in a mixed box or vegetable only box at affordable prices.
By not having a physical shopfront ARC Organics keeps its overheads low, orders are placed by midday Tuesday so that we can order exactly the amount needed for Thursday delivery. This means your produce, which is delivered on Wednesday is received by you on Thursday guaranteeing absolute freshness. You can’t get fresher then that!
What We Offer
We predominantly offer Certified organic produce, however we do offer a small selection of biodynamic, locally grown to certified principal products. We will always tell you if it is not certified and you may opt out of that product if you wish.
Boxes:
Small boxes will cost $45.00 Delivered and they will be:
· Mixed fruit and vegetable box OR
· Vegetable only box
Large boxes will cost $85.00 Delivered and they will be:
· Mixed fruit and vegetable box OR
· Vegetable only box
Vegetable only boxes receive an additional list of vegetables that will be added to the box which counters the cost of the fruit in a mixed box.
Extras:
Healthy earth friendly Extras from local and interstate producers are available with any box ordered.
Crates:
We are starting to phase out the use of crates. You may still request that your delivery is made in a wooden crate however we do require a $20.00 crate fee which is refundable upon return of the crate.
Crates are only on loan, at all times they remain the property of ARC Organics, we swap the empty for a full so remember to leave out when you next order.
We are moving towards recycling cardboard produce poxes as preference for our deliveries. Please pop them out when placing another order we will reuse them as often as we can to minimize wasteful single use and once they are no longer usable we will ensure they are recycled properly.
Ordering/Delivery:
Orders need to be by 12 midday Tuesday, (any late orders cannot be processed due to the required time that our wholesaler requires our order in). Orders are packed and delivered on the Thursday between 4pm and 8pm.
Delivering to Canberra, Queanbeyan, Royalla, Googong & Bungendore every Thursday.
