Frequently asked questions
-
$70 per month, which gets you a box every other week ($33.60/box).
If you choose the $80 / month plan, it also includes a $10 monthly donation to the garden education programs at local elementary schools.
We compared our harvest box price to the same items at Sprouts and this is what we discovered:
The cost for the Sprouts shopping was $35.27, compared to the average harvest box cost of $33.60, as we distribute 25 boxes per subscriber per year.
Some of the items were not available at the store. Some items were wrapped in plastic with no available alternative.
But if food were priced according to its “true cost”, which includes the hidden costs to nature, individual health, and social equity, buying from the store would be even more expensive.
-
We are a zero-waste community. Your harvest will be packaged in reusable containers. Plan to return your reusable containers each week when you pick up your new box. Many of our reusable containers have been in circulation for over 10 years!
