Love the quality, although it isn't always consistent. I love the fruit and veg boxes, so easy to plan weekly meals.The prices are a bit higher than other farms and things locally but it is worth it for the ease of front door delivery.

I have been a customer on and off for a number of years.
I love the convenience of receiving a weekly delivery of Australian grown fruit and veg but get frustrated by the inconsistent quality.
The customer service is helpful and quick to refund any poor quality items. The custimer service web chat feature is very useful I just wish I wasn't so familiar with it.

the food from aussie farmers is really fresh. it can be on the expensive side however but it is aussie owned and you know its fresh. i had a few issues with the delivery driver continually not following directions and leaving the esky out in the open rather than behind my fence as directed. it is quite handy though to wake up on a saturday morning and have fresh bagels, eggs, bacon & milk.

I love Aussie Farmers. Thank you for taking the pain away from shopping. You are always delivering me the best produce and delight me with new cool boxes when ever the old one needs replacing. Awesome guys

We have been using Aussie Farmers Direct for the past year and the local franchise was recently awarded franchisee of the year with good reason. The food produce is always fresh, the service is great and they always notify us if there is anything out-of-stock with notes or face-to-face when the package is dropped off. The amounts are usually deducted off the invoice at a later stage. Whilst it's frustrating that they do not re-use the boxes, our Franchise takes them back to give to local schools.
I think it's a great idea having your fruit, veg, milk & general groceries delivered to your door stop - it's bringing the old days back again!

Approximate cost: $35

The concept of this business is fantastic. Buy Aussie produce and have it delivered to your door. Support the farmers. I've been quite happy with the quality and they now have an app for ordering which makes it easier. However their service is quite poor. Many of my orders had mistakes, if they don't have an item it simply isn't sent to you without any communication. They also overpackage the food with lots of plastic and refuse to reuse the boxes citing health regulations even though other services do this. I still get my meat and dairy from them but would swap if there was another provider who could do better environmentally and on service.

We got some credit to use Aussie Farmers Direct when we bought our fridge. We started off ordering the fruit and veggie boxes, but to be honest, it just didn't work for us. Getting one or two of an item wasn't really enough to cook a meal, and sometimes the substitutions when at item was unavailable was odd. For example, we were supposed to get a rockmelon but it was substituted for grapes, and there was already a bunch of grapes in the box. Massive grape overload!

My partner is now using up the credit ordering seafood and meats and he tells me the quality is very good (I don't eat meat). You have to admire getting up and having fresh produce already delivered to your door by 5am. Having said that, when we have used up the credit, I don't think we'll continue using them - I personally find it easier going to a store and selecting the items I want, making planning meals so much easier for our family.

Love it indeed!

I tried using Aussie Farmers Direct, but to be honest I jsut prefer to buy my fruit & vege from local markets or fruit shops where I can personally select my produce. With a large family, I always found it difficult to judge how much a kilo of this or that would be and I would often end up with too little of certain items when I really needed more. This is just my personal preference and what I found didn't work for me.
That being said the quality of the produce was excellent and I found the prices fair for the service you get.

zahras811 29 Oct 2015

so true. their quality is better!

I was using Aussie Farmers after responding to a promotional phone call about two years ago but stopped when financial constraints meant that I had to resort to cheap $1 litre milk and bread. Things are looking up so will go back to them. Used to get lamb shanks, Milk, steak and roast lamb. Great knowing that you're supporting our guys, too.

I am adding an addendum. I got an order two weeks ago. The vegetarian lasagne had no bechamel and was basically a lot of pasta with tomato sauce and no more than a handful of veges. The lamb roast has a 1cm thick layer of fat over it. When I rang them I got " I'm really sorry about that" I'll let them know. No refund or credit offered. I'd like to support them but quality has to be part of the deal

I wont purchase thru Aussie farmers, I had someone round not so long ago and the only way I could join was to give my credit card details which I refuse to do. I would rather buy direct off the farmer Farmers Markets are all over the place and some come with milk deliveries from Ballarat. Farmers Direct is still the middle man, Farmers Markets are directly with the farmer where the money he makes goes straight into his pocket, I know because I am one

Wow never heard of this before.

I have a weekly delivery of iterms, box of fruit one week and vegies the other. Always some items that I know little about (especially the vegies) The boxes they come in are also very useful.

zahras811 29 Oct 2015

So true. Boxes are very handy
