You may remember that in a few posts back I introduced you to Harvest Box, the guilt-free snacking company that delivers treats straight to your home or office. Last time, I posted an unboxing and review of one of their boxes so you can read that HERE if you're interested. This time I'm bringing to you a Q&A from my mini interview with Harvest Box. Read on to find out more about the beginnings of this box, breaking down the myth that snacking is bad for you and looking into the future of Harvest Box.
Where did the
inspiration for Harvest Box come from?
Founders, James Scott, George Stooke and William Cook started Harvest Box because, having grown frustrated with the lack of healthy snack options in the workplace themselves, they guessed others must feel the same! They were keen to create a business they could be proud of – a business that contributes to healthier eating choices for people at work or home. Harvest Box aims to eliminate calorie and sugar-laden quick fixes by bringing healthy snacks to you, so making the right choice becomes super convenient!
Our tagline is ‘Say Hello to Guilt-Free Snacking’ and we love making it easy for people to do just that.
How does Harvest Box work and what is your favourite aspect of it?
The process is simple – choose a delivery day, tell us what you do (and don’t!) like, and we’ll send you a box of healthy treats each week, hand-picked to suit your tastes. We think the best aspects of the service are the element of surprise, because you don’t know what you’ll get each week, and the convenience factor. It’s all too easy to resort to chips and chocolate when that 3pm slump kicks in, but if there’s a Harvest Box on your desk, there’s no need!

What kind of snacks can we expect to receive in a Harvest Box?
We’re proud to say that our range of dried fruit, nuts, seeds, crackers and treats is the biggest it’s ever been – there are 60 mixes in total. Some of our customers’ current faves are: Strawberry Milkshake (strawberries, cranberries, blueberries and yoghurt balls), We Love Nuts (roasted almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews and peanuts) and Super Mix (a trail mix featuring Queensland-grown pineapple and white chocolate).
Harvest Box seems to break down the myth that snacking is bad for you, what is your philosophy on this?Absolutely! Snacking gets a bad rap because it’s been so difficult to make good choices until recently. Choosing nuts, dried fruit and seeds over chips and chocolate takes away the guilt element and means that you can actually celebrate and enjoy a little treat in between meals. Our portion-controlled snacks keep you fuller for longer and are bursting with healthy fats, vitamins, minerals and a heap of other stuff that makes your body happy. And, if your body’s happy, energetic and not craving for anything, you’re far less likely to overindulge on the stuff that’s not so good for you.
Are there any upcoming projects or plans happening with Harvest Box?Yes, it’s an exciting time for us as we’ve just launched a range of our products in Coles Australia-wide! Rather than replacing our Harvest Box service, which is going from strength to strength, we see Snack Packs as a natural extension. They’re perfect for people who want to grab something on the go and we’ve actually designed them in response to feedback from our weekly box customers, who have told us they’d love to see our products in supermarkets and convenience stores. We’re delighted with the response the Snack Packs have had so far and we’re really glad to be making guilt-free snacking easier than ever before. Find out more here: http://www.harvestbox.com.au/HB/
