We want to know what you'd actually buy.

Two questions, takes 30 seconds. We'll send you 30% off your first box as a thank you.

What would you want in your produce box? What would make you actually pull the trigger?

Let's talk money. 💵

People always ask: "Is this cheaper than the store?"

Short answer: It depends on what you value.

If you're comparing line-item prices, we're competitive (and with our 20% launch discount, we're beating most stores right now).

But here's what you DON'T pay for at the grocery store:
🚜 Supporting Black farmers directly
👨🏿‍🌾 Knowing exactly where your food comes from
🚚 Free delivery to your door
🥔 Seasonal variety planned for you
✅ Zero impulse buys (we all know you're not leaving Target with just produce)

This week's Starter Box is $28 with the discount. That's less than two DoorDash orders. And it feeds you for days.

Quick PSA: Your box will look different every season. And that's exactly how it should be. 🥦

Right now, it's winter in Chicago. That means sweet potatoes, squash, roots, and hardy greens. Come March, you'll see asparagus, strawberries, and tender spring lettuce. Summer? Peak tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers. 🥒

We're not flying in out-of-season produce from across the globe. We're working with what the land gives us, when the land gives it.
It's better for the farmers. Better for the planet. And honestly? Better tasting.

If you want the same 12 items year-round, we're not your people. But if you want produce at its peak, grown close to home, and full of actual flavor, we got you. 👇

Behind every box is a whole lot of hustle. 🥬

This is what Thursday mornings look like: fresh produce arriving from the farm, every box checked for quality, packed with care, and loaded up for the South Side.

We don't cut corners. We don't rush. Your food gets the same attention we'd want for our own family.

Order by Wednesday 3PM and we'll see you Thursday through Saturday.

Sweet potato overload? Never.

Quick roasted sweet potatoes from this week's box:
1️⃣ Cube them
2️⃣ Toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika
3️⃣ Roast at 400°F for 25 min
4️⃣ Flip halfway through
5️⃣ Devour

Works as a side, breakfast hash base, or straight from the pan standing at the counter (no judgment).
