Affordable hauora kai (healthy food) is the idea behind Kai Ora Collective. The Collective - previously the Wellington Region Fruit & Vege Co-ops - harnesses our collective buying power to reduce the cost of fresh kai.
For just $15 you’ll get a fruit & vege pack made up of 3 to 4 fruit and 3 to 4 vegetable varieties that are currently in season. The pack contents vary from week to week but it’s always great value!
It's also possible to choose your own produce through our online ordering platform.
Wesley Community Action co-ordinates the Collective in partnership with Te Whatu Ora (formerly Regional Public Health).
The Collective is made possible by many volunteers giving their time generously to support their community – we’re not a business or a charity. We uphold the mana of everyone involved – the growers, the wholesalers, the freight workers, our volunteers and our members. We’re creating a food system that rewards everyone fairly and is accessible to all of our community. So the more people that join, the better value the Collective can deliver to all.
The Collective has 11 packing hubs and almost 40 pick-up locations throughout the greater Wellington region (including the Wairarapa).
