GOAL: To get you easy access to whole foods and provide guidance along the way!
Since moving back home to the HRM I had my eye out for a service I became quite accustomed to in Toronto… food boxes.
Skip the shopping, skip the supermarkets, hey, skip the decision making! A box of produce straight from farmers gets delivered right to your door on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. Of course you don’t have much say in what you get, but it’s quite an exciting experience. You’ll discover fruits and veggies you’ve never had a chance to work with before, while packing in all those delicious vitamins, minerals and fibre!
Halifax offers such a service folks! Affordable, organic, local, food boxes delivered right to your door. Home Grown Organic Foods.
How is it so affordable? Well, they skip the middle man, and relay the food to you as direct as possible. You can order 4 different sizes, they are delivered on Wednesdays and Saturdays. You can send in a list of allergies and dislikes or even create a special order. HGOF offers extras that you can add to your order as well: breads, meats, organic groceries etc.
I just received my dogma box (local source only) last night. Lots of fall harvest and hearty veggies!
Sign up for a box, and follow me along the way to whole food eating as I search for healthy and easy recipes for all this fantastic produce :)
