Organics To You

My husband and I received a subscription to Organics to You as a gift and it has been AMAZING! As a vegan and vegetarian most of our diet consists of veggies and this service makes getting veggies exciting! I feel like a giant dork for getting super excited about the deliveries, but I can’t help it. I love that the staff is super kind and responsive (super quick turnaround on emails), plus they really do look at your likes and dislikes as far as veggies and try to cater to you. Thank Organics to You! What a great service!

Upon opening my first box I thought «they must be fluffing the quantity because we’re new customers.» Upon opening my 6^th box, I realized this produce box is packed! I look forward to it every week, and am amazed at the quantity and quality. It’s great produce, never bruised, and always fresh. It really makes a difference with the variety and customization that is offered.

I saw this company at the green festival in Portland and liked the idea of it. As a bonus, they were offering $ 20 off for new customers. Their $ 36 small box would then be $ 16. The nice lady there helped me sign up and I walked away happy.
A week or so later and the box gets delivered. I open it up and think «this is it??» There were 4 potatoes, 3 oranges, 2 apples, 2 onions, 2 bell peppers, a bundle of kale, a bundle of green onion, a little squash, and an avocado. How this was supposed to represent a good value at $ 36 is beyond me. It barely felt like the groceries added up to a $ 16 value. I think they were just signing up first time suckers with their discount and I fell for it.

I just got my box!!! I work tons of hours and this just made my life easier, whoo hoo.

Received this as a gift and am SO impressed with the quality. One thing my gift giver had on the list was forgotten and now I’m even more impressed with the follow-​up and customer service. I’m moving out of state so am disappointed to not be able to use them in the future but highly recommend!

Okay, so we recently signed up for this service again. Like I mentioned in my previous review we just love their product, price and delivery service but had so many headaches with the office staff that we cancelled previously. Well, they have won us back. I signed up again hoping we wouldn’t be in for another whirlwind of mistakes on our orders. And I was pleasantly surprised. We had some specifics noted in our order about our likes and dislikes and they have nailed it every week. We have never once received something that we did not request and they are really helpful when I’ve called. They obviously had a lot of growing up to do a few years back but I am happy to say that I will continue using them now, and look forward to our Small Bin of produce every week. Thanks guys for being a great local option again!

I love this service. I have been receiving produce boxes for about 2 years and have hardly ever had issues with bad produce. I think one red pepper had a bad spot in the whole 2 years. Otherwise, they are extremely flexible — allowing you to cancel at anytime and put boxes on hold over vacation. I have moved a couple times and they have moved with me with no problem. I started with the box for one (which is really enough for the two of us) every other week. Because we eat less fruit they have customized our box so that we get ¹⁄₃ fruit and ²⁄₃ veggies. My diet is greatly improved by making it a goal to consume all the fruits and veggies before the next bin shows up. Here are some examples of what might be in a winter box for one and a summer box for one.
Winter Box
Sweet potatoes
Kale
Leeks
Carrots with the tops
Delicata squash (the best)
Shitake mushrooms
Parsnips
Onions
Beets
Apples
Pears
Persimmons
Summer Box
Chard or some form of greens
Carrots
Red peppers
Tomatoes
Celery
Strawberries
Grapes
Apples
Kiwi Berries (look these up… they are amazing)
Onions
Gold potatoes
Zucchini
Green beans
No matter what, the variety and price for organic local produce cannot be beat. This is an amazing value. I have gotten several of my friends to subscribe and they all rave as well. Opening the box is like Christmas if you are a foodie like me. They will even give you more of your favorites and exclude items you detest. For example, my box is marked with double kale and sweet potatoes because I love them.
I cannot get over how many amazing things I receive right at my door with no thought or effort from me. This company rocks!

This is such a wonderful company and a great idea!
I’ve been with them for two years now. The set up is very easy. Also very easy and accommodating if you need to skip a delivery for anything.
The produce is always fresh. I love the variety as well. It’s fun getting new things and learning how to prepare them. You don’t have to go to the store and try to think of what you want. It’s brought right to you. It makes me choose to eat healthier as well. When I’m out and see something, I remember that I have a bunch of food at home to eat. Also, if there’s something you don’t like or can’t have, they will replace it with something else.
Oh, can’t forget their prompt and friendly customer service.:)
I recommend this place all the time:)

Great bi-​weekly boxes! Always full of yummy ORGANIC goodness!
Service has been great, billing easy and produce delicious.
I would love to try some of the other organic offerings available…
THANK YOU for your service and dedication to healthy, happy families AND nutritious eating!

I wanted to send a basket of fruit to my sister and mother. I found Organics To You on the Web and ordered a small basket, requesting that no strawberries or kiwis be included.
I quickly received a confirmation that the basket would be delivered the following week, without strawberries or kiwis. A few days later I received a follow-​up when the delivery had been scheduled.
My mother confirmed that it was a lovely basket, and far superior to one they had received a few days previous from a different vendor. I will not hesitate to use them again. An ideal experience.

What a great service! We enjoyed each and every one of our deliveries. Great produce and variety. I hope to find something like this around my new location. Having a box delivered at a reasonable price was so convenient! They were so easy to work with if I needed to stop deliveries for vacation or for any reason. Also super easy to list items you don’t like or want more of.

Love my Bin for One. Produce is super fresh and the selection is great. I always look forward to my box because it contains their selection of what is best and freshest. I also like to be introduced to produce I would not normally buy or find in a supermarket. (fresh fava and fresh garbanzo beans). Often I am challenged to learn how to cook a new item — this can only be a good thing! Yes, I’m a fan. Occasionally they forget that I dislike kale (but usually substitute something I like better, like chard.)
Easy peasy to start and stop for vacation times — they are flexible and highly responsive when you email with questions. Better than a CSA, in my opinion, because you don’t have to come up with a huge sum of money to start. Thanks, O2U! I would miss you if I left PDX, but that ain’t happening anytime soon. :)

Oh my, I love everything about this company & miss it dearly since I left Portland. There is nothing half as great here in Honolulu.
I have only good things to say, there were no negatives! Every week they delivered amazing organic produce to my back door, and I would tape the check to the door for them. It was SO MUCH for a reasonable price. I got to try lots of exotic stuff I hadn’t heard of or bought before, and learn all kinds of new recipes by looking up the produce on Pinterest. It was so much fun, and I was glowing with health.
They were good about customizing my bin for me every week, replacing my dislikes with things I wanted. I even had annoying specifics like «no oranges, nectarines, or tangerines, unless they’re blood oranges» and they always catered to that. Never any mistakes.
They were professional, polite, promptly responded to any emails I sent. Had no problem stopping & starting services when I went on vacation to Disneyland. The driver even brought the box inside my house for me once when I was home to get the door, because I had my son in my arms.
A great company. One of the many reasons I miss PDX!

Ok, so the first thing I noticed when I came on here to review, is that my favorite most awesomest service only had 4 stars so I had to go read those reviews first — -um hello people USER ERROR— thats what their problem is… ANYWAY… back to MY review. I LOVE Organics to you. I don’t call anyone because I don’t have TIME, that is the reason I am in LOVE with any kind of delivery service. So, I use the website, I email changes in and they have been 100% accurate. I would agree that sometimes you don’t know what you are going to get. So if I don’t like it, I just feed it to my chickens (cause I’m super Portland like that). Its a win win. The service has been phenomenal-​the juicer bin rocks, and now I have moved to the small bin.

Love them!
We have been customers for a few years now, and have always been excited everytime the box is sitting at your door step after a long day of work. We get a small bin, bi-​weekly, so it is a big supplement to grocery shopping. For the most part, everything is super fresh and as local as they can each season. I know some people don’t like to have produce from out of town, but I don’t mind, they are all organic anyway! They are quick to respond to emails, and is really convenient when we need to cancel a week or change schedules. We have had many of our friends sign up after seeing what we get each week.

Love it! We have a weekly order for the small bin and a salad add-​on. We also have a couple other items delivered as well, chocolate, tofu, etcetera. Every week the delivery arrives full of wonderful items. The selection and variety have been top-​notch.
Our household is two adults, and this order is the perfect size. We can make 2 – 3 meals out of the delivery and have lots of snacks too.
The price is VERY reasonable.
Whenever we have had to contact them for changes or comments, they are quick to respond to my liking.
I would recommend this service to everyone.

Love this company.
As a busy professional, active juicer and smoothie enthusiast, it is difficult for me to get to the store as often as I need to in order to eat fresh and healthy foods as often as I’d like. I now only have to visit the grocery store once or twice a week. Organics To You has eliminated my «no time» excuse. I eat healthier and I have more time. Who doesn’t love that?
I order a small bin once a week for $ 33.00. The amount and quality of produce is a great deal. I now balk at prices at the grocery store, smugly thinking of Organics To You as I opt to not buy certain items, and instead wait for my bin. So in addition to saving me time, Organics To You saves me money.
Customer service has been responsive, all my shipments have been on time and all my produce has been fresh.
Some comments after reading other reviews. Yes this is a new and growing company. Yes their website is old. I’m sure they don’t have someone on the phones all the time. So what? Big name companies with inflated staffing (and in turn inflated prices) don’t have the local impact and sense of community that this company provides. If you’re going to embrace organic and embrace local, embrace the small companies that embody both.
Organics To You, you have my support and I raise my glass full of juiced kale and apples in honor of you. Keep it up guys.

Pros:
— mostly high-​quality produce
— good variety
— good value for your dollar
— good customer service and friendly staff
— allows customers to customize boxes to an extent (you can tell them what you like/don’t like and they will make sure to cater the produce to your specifications)
— consistent delivery without issues
— no billing issues
— provides additional pantry-​style products (we typically ordered a one-​pound filet of local line-​caught salmon in addition to our bin)
— makes up for mistakes with additional produce or a discount on your next purchase
— THEY DELIVER! How awesome is that?!
Cons
— too high a proportion of non-​local produce (e.g., Texas grapefruits and lots of stuff from southern California)
— sometimes take a couple days to get back to you via email, and it’s not always the same person
— occasionally we would have produce that went bad more quickly than if you would buy it at the grocery store (this happened with some garlic, citrus and a couple other things)
— with the asparagus, they just throw it loosely into the box so it’s kind of scattered throughout, instead of wrapping it with a rubber band or something
— much of the produce isn’t labeled, which is fine for the more recognizable items, but doesn’t help when you get something in your box you’ve never cooked with before and are not about sure what it is
We’ve been using Organics to You for a few months now, getting a «small bin» on a bi-​weekly basis. While we really liked the service and produce overall, we are cancelling our service to try out a local CSA. Like others here, I feel that if they improved a couple of things about their company on the business end, that it would be even better than it currently is. I honestly think they are trying to build a great business from the ground up, and I would not hesitate to recommend Organics to You to anyone interested in trying them out. If we don’t end up liking the CSA model, I wouldn’t be surprised if we returned to this company in the future.

My urban ass could not be happier:
Organic produce that gets delivered to your home.
*BAM*
So satisfied total take down.

A friend of mine had raved about this company, so I decided to look into it. I will admit I was drawn to the idea of having local organic produce show up on my doorstep without much effort on my part! I have been ordering from this company for just about a year now, and have been pleased with the service. I get the «bin for one» delivered every two weeks, and that is usually plenty for me. Would probably be good for a couple too, but I eat lots of veggies.
Before I used Organics to You, I had never had kale, chard, turnips… and some various other things. As a result, I have branched out of my normal vegetable cuisine, and now make kale a regular staple in my diet! It helps keep my menu options varied, and I look for new recipes all of the time. Usually everything is fresh and yummy. I especially love the carrots.
The box arrives always on the scheduled day (depending where you live), and if I have ever had to cancel an order, (due to vacation or whatever) the staff is quick
to process the request!
My only complaint is the small amount of fruit variety. No matter what the season, I always seem to get apples, pears or oranges. I think I have gotten grapefruit once, and kiwis once. That’s about it. But that doesn’t change my rating… it is
highly recommended!
