Reviews for: Boxed Organics

We love Boxes Organics. The produce is always fresh and the pantry add-ons are amazing! The delivery service was very smooth when we lived in Montclair; but if you can do the pick-up that is very straight forward, too!

Our favorite parts have been the foraged mushrooms and the fresh eggs. We love the partnerships with farms that constantly provide healthy vegetables and the recipes Melina sends for guidance on preparing them. Keep it up!

It?s a bit of a schlep for me to reach Boxed Organics but when I think it?s too much and maybe I should quit, the panic of what I?d be missing sets in and I find myself eagerly driving to them for my next pick up. The assortment of vedge is outstanding. And as 32+ year vegetarian, the standard is perfect for one or two.

Great selection, easy sign up and renewal. Love the e-mailed recipes! Still wondering how I can get more kiwi berries in my life.

My co-workers and I have joined Boxed Organics in an effort to consume more fresh real foods. Since we have received our deliveries I have heard comments such as "I can't believe how fresh everything is" "My produce is still beautiful a week later" "I'm loving this" "Im so glad Im doing this" "Next time, I don't want to share. I want my own"

It is also very easy to work with Boxed Organics. We have great communication and pick up is a breeze!

Thanks Boxed Organics!

Produce and more! By: Michele Sionas    (Jun 20, 2013)

In addition to fruits and vegetables, Boxedorganics provides very fresh eggs from a farm in New Jersey. My family enjoys them so much that I order extra. We also look forward to occasional add ons like artisan chèvre, homemade jams and other condiments.

I am the type of person that likes to cook and store, talking advantage of the produce at it's freshest. The emails and recipies that arrive the day prior to pick-up help me to plan ahead.

I don't know about you, but I can't remember the last time I saw rhubarb for sale at the supermarket. We got rhubarb in two shipments this spring!

What I have come to love most about Boxed Organics is that it keeps inspiring and motivating me to cook beyond what I know. Many ingredients would not naturally be on my shopping list. Receiving recipes the day before the box arrives helps with some planning.

Rhubarb in our spring boxes has made for a bountiful rhubarb and strawberry compote and jam loved by our kids and friends alike. I called it my "Summer in a Jar" to extend that brief window of these tasty treats just a little bit.

It took me a while to overcome the abundance of leafy greens of sorts but I would not want to make my various grain salads without it by now.

Most often I type one or two of the ingredients into google or an app called punchfork and see what comes up. It guarantees that all items from the box become part of a delicious, healthy meal.

Like I said it keeps me inspired and our taste buds delighted.

As someone new to boxed organics I didn't really know what to expect, but I have been amazed with the group! The fruits and veggies are always fresh and I love that we always get a list of what we are getting and delicious recipes the day before. A lot of the veggies are things I had never tried before, and having those recipes to guide me though my new fruits and veggies has been incredibly helpful. When looking for a group to join I wanted something that would be perfect for two people, and their half boxes are ideal. They come every two weeks and I am usually right on target- ready for some new produce by then. If you are looking to join a CSA and live in or around the Montclair area, this is the perfect one to join!

Boxed Organics is more than just a source of delicious, farm-fresh, wonderful, varied, local produce from friendly, flexible, and generous people. As if that wasn't enough, every recipe we've tried from the newsletter has been amazing, and the experience has been a real education in cooking and healthy living. We've tried many new fruits and vegetables and it's been fun to discover these new treats and share them with our children (who love coming to pick up the box).

We highly recommend Boxed Organics!

I have been using Boxed Organics for years. I have a cooking consulting business and blog and use the products for my work as well as for my family of six. I love how I always get a description of the food the day before so I can start planning my recipes in advance.

Pick -up is simple and there is even a delivery service if you just can't get to the drop off site (or just want to stay in on a rainy day).

I highly recommend Boxed Organics for easy cooking with healthy fresh vegetables, fruit, eggs and others seasonal items.
