  3. Our contract with you
    1. How we will accept your order. Our acceptance of your order will take place when we email you the dispatch confirmation, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us. 
    2. If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will either not charge you or make a full refund if the payment has been made. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product. 
    3. We offer two ways to purchase our products. You can make a one off purchase through our online store (one off purchases) or you can enter into a subscription plan whereby we will send you products at regular agreed intervals (Regular Deliveries).

  4. Our products
    1. Products may vary slightly from their pictures. The images of the products on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device's display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the products. Your product may vary slightly from those images. Although we have made every effort to be as accurate as possible, because our products are agricultural, all sizes, weights, capacities, dimensions and measurements indicated on our website have a 5% tolerance.
