Terms & Conditions

You’re about to join the The Green Backyard family, and play a part in rebuilding the local food system. We welcome you on this journey.

When things don't work quite as you had hoped, please get in touch with us (email and phone are good). We are always looking for ways to improve, and want your feedback and ideas.

Purchases and Deliveries

We endeavour to deliver within the allotted times however do not guarantee supply or delivery on time. We are not liable for any mis-deliveries due to incorrect addresses being provided. We reserve the right to accept or refuse orders for any reason.

Produce Weight

Due to the large variance of unit weights found in some types of produce, the exact weight of produce in boxes may not exactly match what was ordered. A tolerance of up to 10% should be expected in weighed produce items. Where ever possible we will endeavour to balance under supply on one item with over supply of others, so box value remains similar.

Drop Sites

Boxes must be picked up on the designated delivery day within the specified pickup time. It is completely at the host's discretion as to whether they can accommodate late pickups. Customers that miss the specified pickup time are not eligible for credits. Our hosts donate leftover boxes to service organizations and families in need to ensure that no food is wasted.

Credit Card Payments

Payments are processed through a secure third-party payment system. Any debit or credit card details stored for recurring payments are done so on the payment system. No credit card information is stored by us.

Bank Transfers

Bank transfers must be provided with a notable reference number. We take no responsibility for payments made that cannot be traced to a customer.

Cancellation Policy

Due to the small-scale nature of the growers of our products, we need to order in advance, and are unable to guarantee acceptance of order cancellations once we've placed orders with our suppliers. We may charge a small admin fee as well as recovery of costs relating to products and produce that has been prepared specifically for your order.

Refunds

If you are unhappy with any of our products we will attempt to resolve this with you to your satisfaction. If the issue cannot be resolved we will happily refund the payment.

If you are signed up to a drop site, you agree to pick up your box on your designated delivery day within the specified pickup times. It is completely at the host’s discretion as to whether they can accommodate late pickups. Customers that miss the pick up time are not eligible for refunds.

If you signed up using a promotional code, there may be a minimum term associated with your subscription. We can still refund the remainder of your balance but you'll forfeit the promotional credit.

Outstanding Debt

If you incur any outstanding debts we will in the first instance try to recover the outstanding monies through our own internal recovery process. Should this process not recover the outstanding debts your debt will be transferred to a debt-collection agency for collection. Debt-collection fees will be added to your debt and you will be required to pay for collection costs.
