Welcome to Eatlocal, and thank you for stopping by!

For four years, Eatlocal has been delivering premium, locally-grown fruit and vegetables to homes and offices across the South Island. Based in Christchurch, we proudly partner with New Zealand’s finest growers and artisans to bring fresh, top-quality produce straight to your door.

Joanne Webb, the dedicated Owner/Operator of Eatlocal, wears many hats to ensure every order is perfect. Her mission? To bring you the freshest, highest-quality produce with unmatched customer service. Inspired by New Zealand’s incredible growers and makers, Joanne loves discovering new products to delight her customers.

You can be assured that every Eatlocal box of goodness is packed with care and attention.

“I take great pride in selecting only the best produce, and love that my customers trust me to be their eyes when I pack their order. The thought of them opening the box and going "oh wow, this looks amazing" is what gets me out of bed in the morning!”

- Joanne

Never one to shy away from a challenge, Joanne took up running a few years ago to prove wrong those who doubted she could complete a marathon. She has since conquered the 42.2 km distance fifteen times. Her journey has taught her the value of a balanced diet rich in fresh, high-quality food to fuel both body and mind.

In her downtime, Joanne loves getting creative in the kitchen – she identifies as “flexitarian” - the pull of a good burger is hard to resist! When she’s not packing your next order, you’ll likely find her exploring Christchurch’s Hagley Park with her adored mini-Schnauzer, Zac, arguably the most photogenic member of the Eatlocal team!
