I love going to Whole Foods, but as of lately I haven't been able to get to the downtown location early enough and by the afternoon it's gridlock downtown and I usually arrive at the store grumpy. But what's a vegan to do? I have to get fresh produce. Well, I happened to stumble upon this great service that I am so excited to try that can totally be a fix for the grocery store blues. The service is called Greenling. Greenling delivers farm fresh produce right to your door! You can choose their weekly box or you can customize your own from a long list of seasonal goodies. They use locally grown and organic produce so you know where your food comes from and better yet, on their website you can check out all of their farmers. Once you set up an account and place an order your produce is then delivered right to your front door in a cooler box. It can stay cool in the shade for hours. How cool is that? And my favorite part, when you order the local box they also provide recipes for all the produce you get, so you can plan meals accordingly and nothing you buy has to go to waste! I think they actually may have thought of everything!
Check them out when you get a chance. It's a great way to know exactly where your food comes from and since it's all locally grown you know you will be eating in season which is not just beneficial to you but beneficial to the enviroment as well.
Just a side note, they not only deliver produce, but they can also do gourmet baskets and they also do boxes of local goods that the farmers make, things like beer and wine or jam. You just have to check them out for yourself! Please feel free to post if you used Greenling before and tell me about the experience.
Happy Eating!
