Here's What We're About

Since 2020, Eatlocal has been on a mission to bring you locally grown goodness – premium-quality fruit, vegetables, and artisan foods delivered to homes across the South Island (and to workplaces right here in Christchurch). We work with trusted New Zealand growers and makers, choosing the best of what’s in season so every box is fresher, tastier, and packed with care.

​

I’m Joanne Webb – chief produce picker, box packer, floor sweeper, and the friendly voice behind your emails. I personally hand-select every product that goes into your order and love that you trust me to be your “eyes.” My goal is for you to open that box and say, “yes, this is exactly what I was hoping for.”  That’s what gets me out of bed in the morning!

​

Behind the scenes, my partner Chris White, a Chartered Accountant, has a steady hand on the numbers, and is an avid runner with over 25 marathons under his belt.

 

​When I’m not packing boxes, you'll either find me procrastinating about starting training for another marathon (15 so far - number 16 is a little way off yet!); rustling up some baking (cheese scones are my latest obsession); or taking Zac – our adored, very photogenic mini-Schnauzer – for a 'sniffari' in Hagley Park.

​

If you’re on LinkedIn and want to connect, I'm over there too.
