Local Harvest Delivery

In an effort to be healthier, we thought it'd be good to add some more fruits and veggies to our diet. My sister & brother in law recommended this great company, Local Harvest Delivery, that brings local produce straight to your door. You pay a weekly fee for them to deliver a box of fresh, locally grown & in season fruits & veggies. And you can go online every week to add to your box additional fruits, veggies, organic meats, eggs, and honey...all from local farmers.

Their motto is that "They are proud to offer life-changing services that will result in healthier people, a healthier environment, and a stronger local economy and community."



This Saturday will be our first delivery, we thought we'd try out the small $25 box every other week to see how it goes. At least 1/4 of our grocery bill is fruits & vegetables anyway, so why not get something that's locally grown, so you know where the food comes from. My sister did say they had to be a little creative sometimes with cooking some of the vegetables they received, especially during the winter months. But I look forward to a little challenge to our day to day cooking, maybe it will encourage me (especially me) to take some more risk with my vegetables of choice :)
