The Produce Box

Wow I joined last wk and didn’t realize what I was missing out on. I got some amazing produce last wk there. It is so much freasher and better taste then any organic produce I get anywhere elce. It is so nice have such great produce come my house. I get a lot great produce and use it to make great meals for family. They also have a lot of different products every wk. The only issue I have is there so much great produce I could spend my entire grocery budget. I always have hold back buying more.

I love this service. Order anytime from Friday evening to Sunday 9 PM for delivery on Wednesday. Fresh fruit, vegetables, meat, dairy, etc. A great way to use locally grown, produced food. Support local farmers and producers. I love this service.

Ditto with what Dave wrote! I love Produce Box and signed up based upon his recommendation. It’s veggielicious!
I am like a little kid waiting for my box full of fresh goodness to arrive every week. I’ve never had anything bad. If it’s something I don’t like, I simply trade it like lunch with a coworker! I made apple pie last week from the apples and OMG it was amazing!!! I’m a pie baker and in my 20 years of baking, I’ve never had better quality apples. The squash was incredible, I’ve made ravioli and bisque that rivals anything you’ll find in a restaurant.
Plus the «samples» new stuff that you get to try for free!
As a fruit and veggie lover, the Produce Box is a great value, high quality and nutritionally top notch! Sign up, you won’t regret it!

Who out there likes Christmas? What if I said you could experience Christmas-​like joy every Wednesday?
We found out you can, right here in Wilmington, by signing up for a new local produce delivery service called The Produce Box.
We signed up after skyrocketing bills at Tidal Creek had us reevaluating our grocery budget. Our friends in Raleigh have been doing this for a while and I guess it is a service catching on across the country… glad to see something as cool as this in Wilmington.
What is it, you ask? $ 22 a week and you get a good size box of locally grown, farm fresh produce to your DOOR. Yes, right to your front step. Essentially, its the same stuff at the local farmers market, but delivered. We are simply amazed and excited each week when our box comes… to top it off, they throw in samples of maple butter, bbq, honey, etc and you get a friendly note from farmers and produce box coordinators with recipes and what is going on in their world. Financially, we did the math and you’d have to atleast spend $ 40 – 50 a week depending on the produce for the same price. Buying direct from farmers really does make sense…
Nothing we’ve done so far in Wilmington has made us feel so connected to the community as a whole. No subscription, cancel anytime and if you are on vacation you just login and «skip a week» Real easy. After doing this for about 6 weeks, we’ve seen our grocery budget get back to normal (probably less) and you really feel like you are part of something special going on…
Here are the boxes for this week (they change each week depending on what is in season and what is fresh) — and, they offer «stock up» options like if you want some cucumbers for pickling. Just check out the site, you’ll see…
