What's in the box: A seasonal mix of fresh fruit and vegetables that were cosmetically imperfect or surplus, sourced to reduce farm food waste.

Good & Fugly is not currently operating, and its website no longer loads, so you cannot order a box today. When it was running, it was an Australian subscription for fresh fruit and vegetables. It focused on produce that shoppers rarely see in a supermarket: items that were misshapen, oddly sized, lightly marked or surplus to what retailers wanted. The aim was to save perfectly edible food from going to waste on farms and send it straight to households on a regular schedule. What went into each box changed with the seasons and with what growers had available, so customers received a mix rather than choosing every item. That suited cooks who enjoy working with whatever turns up. It was less convenient for anyone who plans meals around specific ingredients. With the site offline, details such as delivery areas, box sizes and how existing subscriptions were closed are no longer available. If you had an account, check your bank or card statements to make sure no further payments are being taken, and contact your card provider if anything looks wrong. If you liked the idea, look for an imperfect produce or farm box service that is still trading near you, and check that it delivers to your postcode before committing.
