We use almonds in just about all our packs they are great in flavour and hold an impressive profile when it comes to nutrients. You canât pass them up everyone eats almonds in just about everything whether it be raw, roasted or in milk, flour, or butter there is an almond version of everything.
Almonds are a great source of healthy fat, protein, and fibre and overall reduce heart disease risk factors, they can help improve bad cholesterol and help control blood sugar levels. They hold an impressive amount of Vitamin E, which can help promote and protect your cells from oxidant damage along with support immune function. Lastly, if all of this isnât enough, they have been known to help with gut health and support the growth of beneficial gut bacteria.
Â
Cashews
Cashew is a staple favourite when it comes to nuts, everyone loves them whether that be in a trail mix, or by themselves, their crunchy textures are hard to pass up. Well, we are happy to tell you they are just as impressive when it comes to their nutrient profiles as any others.
Cashews have impressive amounts of protein, vitamin K, magnesium and manganese which are all essential nutrients for bone health. Not to mention they have also been known to help with elevated blood pressure lower body fat and blood sugar levels and help with overall health
Brazil Nuts
Brazil nuts are not usually talked about by everyone but rather focus on the classics like cashews and almonds. To mix it up we recommend adding in some Brazil nuts. They are rich in nutrients and minerals. They are high in Vitamin E and magnesium and are fantastic for regulating blood sugar and blood pressure, nerve function and overall energy production.

]]>Chickpeas are packed with nutrients and hold an impressive nutritional profile. Simply one cup of chickpeas can hold an average of around 269 calories. For each of these calories, they hold an impressive 14.5 grams of protein and a large amount of fibre with 12.5 grams. Impressive right? Well, that's just the beginning.
Chickpeas also hold a large carb percentage which means they keep you feeling fuller for longer. They are also entirely gluten-free for all of you gluten intolerant people out there. If all of this isnât enough, they can also:
Â
So, are you starting to believe us on how amazing chickpeas are well there is still one more important thing we think you might like to know?
Chickpeas are the powerhouse plant for the environment. Here at Harvest Box, we know how important the environment is especially within today's climate. Chickpeas are fantastic for the environment because they can create their own nitrogen supply. To simply break it down chickpeas grab nitrogen from the air and with the help of bacteria within the soil they can transform nitrogen into a usable form of ammonia, meaning they can essentially create their own fertiliser. Why is that amazing? Since Chickpeas can create their own fertilisers, farmers donât have to add fertilisers to their fields. Most nitrogen fertilisers can be extremely harmful to the environment as many plants do not use all the nitrogen meaning it can instead run into rivers and bodies of water inevitably polluting them. The fertilisers can also affect the atmosphere by increasing greenhouse gas pollution.
Chickpea crops are also amazing as they continue to improve the soil even after they have died. Compared to other crops such as wheat or corn chickpeas are the ultimate wonder crop as they can become a remedy for disease and weed growth by fighting off pests and enhancing the soil for the next plant.Â
At Harvest Box, we understand the importance of everything that Chickpeas do in both helping people's health and contributing to helping the environment. Thatâs why all our crispy chickpea chip range uses 100% Australian chickpeas. In every pack, there is 5g of protein and 2g of fibre per serve. All our chickpeas are plant-based meaning they are entirely vegan, not to mention they are gluten-free and have no MSG or artificial ingredients.
So, by picking up a packet of either our 85g large bags or multipacks, you are supporting your health, your local farmers, and the environment. There isnât a downside so rush on in and grab a packet of any of our 4 flavours of crispy chickpea chips in selected Woolworth stores located in the health food aisle.
Because better begins hereâŠ.

Our snacks take the stress out of preparing and organising our kids lunch. Instead of buying something unhealthy and coming home still hungry, try some of our treats we know they'll love!
Harvest Box is an Australian owned company that offers quality plant-based ingredients that hold a lengthy list of health and nutritional benefits. They are easy to grab and go and are a fantastic addition to any childrenâs lunch box. The large variety of mixes means there is something for everyone whether your kids are gluten intolerant, dairy intolerant or simply just want something new. Making lunch interesting is hard to do. Everyone knows children get bored with the same sandwich, fruit and basic muesli bar. So, to help upgrade their lunch box we have a list of must have products that can replace the boring basics.
Â
Â
The muesli bar is a staple to any lunch box, but letâs be honest no one really knows whatâs in them. Often the ingredients listed on the back include long lengthy words that no one can understand or even the ones that claim to be healthy hold a large amount of added sugars and emulsifiers. All these added manufactured sugars often lead to children having a surge of energy that only lasts for a short time and inevitably end up with them having no energy afterward. Our solution is simple, replace it with either a packet of We Love Nuts or Power Mix.
We Love Nuts is simple and to the point. Itâs a healthy blend of lightly salted cashews, almonds, brazil nuts and peanuts. Itâs a great choice for the no-fuss child who doesnât like all the extra additives that are normally in trail mixes such as dried fruit and seeds. All packs hold nothing artificial and are gluten and dairy free.
If your child likes all the bells and whistles and needs something a bit extra to help boost their energy naturally, Power Mix is the perfect choice. Itâs a classic trail mix with the added surprise of chocolate milk nibs sprinkled in, adding an extra twist to a fan favourite. The power mix holds, almonds, raisins, cranberries, milk chocolate nibs, macadamias, sunflower seeds, pistachio kernels and pepitas. The mix holds nothing artificial and has the bonus of being gluten free.
Both options are natural and are a great solution in replacing those boring muesli bars from kidsâ lunches.
Â
Â
Everyone knows that most kids look forward to a sweet treat in any of their meals, lunch boxes are no exception. Whether it be a chocolate biscuit, a muffin, or a chocolate bar we understand all kids want something exciting that satisfies their sugar craving. Unfortunately, all parents are faced with the dilemma of providing something that ticks the sweet treat box but is still considered healthy. Our solution is to add something sweet to your childrenâs lunch that is not artificially flavoured and full of added sugars. The obvious choice is our Dipped almonds. Harvest Box offers two varieties of dipped almonds. The first, classic Dipped Dark Chocolate are roasted Australian almonds lightly coated in dark chocolate to create a crisp dark shell of 70% chocolate. The second option, Dipped Raspberry, have an added indulgence of a light raspberry dusting over the outside of the nut before being coated inn 70% dark chocolate. Both have 70% less sugar that traditional chocolate-coated nuts and hold no artificial sugars that you would usually find in any dessert.
So what if your child doesnât like nuts? Another great alternative to the sweet treat is the Strawberry Milkshake pack. These packs hold dried strawberries, yoghurt balls, cranberries, blueberries, and sultanas that still fill that sugar craving. The packs hold 60% fruit and nothing artificial meaning you know what your child is ingesting is natural and wonât lead to a quick sugar high.
Â
Â
The potato chip a staple favourite, everyone knows someone that prefers savoury to sweet. Most kidsâ lunches hold a packet of potato chips or something similar that fills that savoury need. Unfortunately, most of these options have high levels of sodium and are processed with high amounts of fats and oils, although most children donât care about this and are happy to eat large volumes of chips that never fully allow them to feel full. Harvest Boxesâ solution is the creation of their Crispy Chickpea Chips. These chickpea crisps are light and flavoursome and still hold that classic crunch that a chip usually has. They are a great alternative to savoury snacks that will be sure to impress any child. All products are gluten free and are the only chip product on the Australian market with a health star rating of 5. Not only that, but we also have a large range of flavours to match any childrenâs favourite chip flavour. The range includes Roast Chickân for any chicken salt lover, Sea Salt and Vinegar for anyone that likes the added salt and vinegar taste, Smokehouse BBQ for the meat lover and of course the classic Sea Salt flavour. Along with the variety of flavours it also gives peace of mind to any parent knowing that their child is eating something considerably healthier than any chips or crackers they were previously consuming.Â
These are just some examples of how you could transform your childrenâs lunch box to a better and healthier version without sacrificing any of the taste. Let us take the pressure of having to mix it up and keep your childrenâs lunch boxes interesting. Harvest Box has a variety of other products available online and can also be found at Woolworths and Coles meaning they are easy to pick up when youâre out grocery shopping. Even more conveniently, we also offer multi-packs in some of our products, making it easier to keep stored in your pantry ready to go for school or simply for snacking time. So, pick up some Harvest Box snacks so you can have some peace of mind that your children are having a healthier option in their lunches.

Go on... treat yourself!Â

You resign yourself to the inevitable: that youâre going to choose a chocolate bar when you get there, and that will make everything better!
For about ten minutes.
Your energy levels will soar, briefly, but the resulting crash will leave you feeling flat, possibly for hours afterwards, and youâll find that youâre soon hungry again.
Luckily, when you get to the vending machine, you notice a new product â itâs a trail mix with nuts, seeds, dried fruit and a sprinkling of milk chocolate. Perfect! The healthy fats in the nuts and seeds keep you feeling fuller for longer (and promote heart health), whilst the dried fruit and milk chocolate drops will satiate your sweet craving without leading to sugar overload.
At Harvest Box, we believe that being our best selves starts with making better choices. The choices donât need to be life-changing in their magnitude; daily decisions like choosing a healthier snack to get you through that 3pm slump can work wonders and make a real impact on how you feel, physically and mentally.
Whether itâs choosing a trail mix over a chocolate bar, or grabbing a glass of water instead of a fizzy drink every now and again, the important thing is that youâve made a start. And thatâs something to celebrate!
