Welcome to the Tucker Box Project Blog Page

To celebrate Fruit and Vegetable Month in September RHealth is launching the Tucker Box Project in partnership with the re-opening of the revitalised Kingaroy Community Garden.

The Tucker Box Project is an RHealth initiative to provide families with an opportunity to grow vegetables at home.
The first 50 families to register have received a Tucker Box Kit including:
Soil, Vegetable Seedlings, Fertiliser and an Information Kit

The aim of the Tucker Box Project is to challenge 50 families to grow the best looking and tasting vegetables in Kingaroy over a 12 week period.

Families will pick up their Tucker Box Kit on Saturday 17 September between 9-12pm at the Pound Street Community Garden in Kingaroy. Over the following 12 weeks families will receive fortnightly newsletter updates (including recipes and tips on growing delicious vegetables), be able to particpate in monthly competitions to win a $50 voucher to Kingaroy Garden Centre and have the opportunity to grow, cook and eat some delicious seasonal vegetables!

Keep coming back to this site to see delicious fruit and vegetable recipes, photos of everyone's Tucker Box's and keep up to date with how the Project is going.

For more information on the Project, contact Berneice at RHealth on 07 4162 5230 or email berneice@rhealth.com.au
