Eating seasonally

Most grocery stores offer a different selection of produce each week, depending on what is in season. Eating seasonally saves you money, reduces your carbon footprint, and helps farms prevent food wastage.

Buying vegetable boxes can sometimes mean a lack of control over what is in your box. For some, this adds excitement and provides mealtime inspiration, while others might want to customize their order, so they know exactly what will be coming.

Plastic-free boxes

This is about reducing your reliance on single-use plastic. The produce you get in paper boxes does not have plastic wrapping, which is detrimental to the environment.
