Aotearoa’s Plant-Powered Dinner Kit

About Us

At Green Dinner Table, our mission is to make eating vegan easy, delicious, and accessible for households across Aotearoa New Zealand. By delivering fresh ingredients and chef-designed recipes straight to your door, we empower people to make positive changes for their health, for animals, and for the planet.

Our Story

Green Dinner Table was founded in Ōtautahi Christchurch by Tom Riley and Chris Kappely, who combined their passion for great food, health, and sustainability to create New Zealand’s first vegan meal box service. From day one, they worked with local growers and food producers, using seasonal ingredients and prioritising recyclable and biodegradable packaging wherever possible.

Their vision was simple: to help more people discover how easy and rewarding plant-based eating can be. That vision continues today.

What You Can Expect

Our weekly boxes feature fresh, plant-based ingredients and simple, step-by-step recipes designed to take the stress out of cooking. We’re committed to supporting local growers, reducing our environmental footprint, and helping more people experience the joy of eating vegan.

From our founders to today, one thing has never changed: our gratitude to you, our community, for sharing the journey with us.
