Box on My Doorstep

I signed up for an organic food box to be delivered once a week. I only did the trial because summer is not the time for commitments. Typically it would cost $35 dollars a week but because I only signed up for three weeks the cost is $40. Your box is delivered to you once a week, unless you want to pick it up between the hours of 10 and 4, somewhere on the north side. Delivery is free if your order is over $50, otherwise it will cost you $5. Okay, I see how this game is played. I am now purchasing $50 dollars of organic produce  a week.
Here's what I got this week:

Bananas, mushrooms, beans, apricots, zucchini, scallions, potatoes, cherries (10 lbs)

I enjoy the selection. It's a good split of fruit and veggies. I also like how I can choose. I get about 48 hours to swap things out of my box (in case they try to send me swiss chard). I can also add whatever I desire. They have lots of other food to choose from, like bread or condiments. It's right at my door when I get home from work. Like if Santa Claus got you exactly what you wrote on your list. I also thought that it encouraged me to eat more veggies. That was the case last week. Tonight I'm eating cheese cake as I type this. Don't worry I had a piece of bread and a fudgecicle for supper. 

I enjoy this food box but I don't think I'll get it again for a while. I've signed up for a different, local, food box for the fall. The Organic Food Box tries to choose local when available but during the winter months, most everything is from south of the border. Not that's I'm complaining. The veggies I get at Superstore come from the same areas and aren't organic. I would just prefer to go with local first. I'll keep you posted!
