Riverford Christmas Veg Boxes: The Heart of the Feast

In true flexitarian spirit, let’s start with the real stars of the show: vegetables.

Riverford’s Christmas veg boxes are packed with organic, seasonal, flavoursome produce chosen especially for festive cooking. They come with all the essentials, think parsnips, carrots, Brussels sprouts, red cabbage, leeks, potatoes, mushrooms etc..

To cater to different households, the boxes are available in different sizes: small, medium or large. They are perfect to take the stress out of meal planning.

High-Welfare Christmas Roasts

If you love a traditional Christmas meat centrepiece, Riverford’s high-welfare meat range is a real standout. 100% organic British meat, reared in small farms that prioritise animal welfare and natural diets.

You can choose from organic turkey, beef, lamb, duck, and gammon with the peace of mind that it has been produced responsibly.

Vegan & Plant-Based Christmas Options

If you are catering for different diets, Riverford offer vegan Christmas options that are designed to be just as celebratory as a traditional roast.

Think gorgeous nut roasts, flavour-packed meat-free centrepieces and plant-based sides as well as vegan chocolates.

Festive Recipe Kits

If you like things simple and stress-free, Riverford Festive Recipe Kits are a godsend.

All the ingredients arrive carefully packed with step-by-step recipe guides, so you can spend less time shopping while still enjoying cooking something delicious.

You can mix and match these boxes to create your perfect Christmas spread such as Christmas veggie wellington kit, Squash, clementine & bulgur Christmas salad kit, Christmas chutney kit, or this delicious Babka below:

Cheese & Grazing Boards for Festive Nibbles

Every good Christmas needs a decent spread of nibbles.

Riverford’s cheese and grazing boxes are perfect for festive boards, grazings, or Boxing Day lunches. Choose from carefully selected cheeses, crackers, chutneys, dips and nibbles.

Arrange everything on a board, pop in the middle of the table (or on a buffet sideboard) and leave everyone to enjoy.

Desserts & Sweet Treats

No Christmas spread is complete without something sweet.

Riverford’s festive organic desserts and bakery treats bring that final flourish to your meal. Choose from traditional Christmas puddings, mince pies, panettone, stollen and other seasonal treats.

They’re perfect for pudding, afternoon treats, or those cold winter evenings.

With Riverford’s Christmas range, you can build a stress-free festive table that feels generous, relaxed and genuinely delicious. All with the piece of mind that everything is grown and sourced with respect for nature, the soil and the people behind the food.
