Farmbox Direct is a natural produce delivery service that specializes in sending out fruits and vegetables that are seasonal, organic and locally harvested in its produce boxes that can be ordered on-demand online.
Options include Only Organic and All Natural boxes, as well as ones that are specifically put together for juicing. These boxes are also completely customizable, letting consumers choose to receive just fruits, vegetables or an assortment of mixed produce. These farm-fresh produce boxes are also paired with cards that make recipe suggestions.
One of the most unique aspects of Farmbox is that it is a zero-waste company. On top of this, for every two boxes that it sells, it donates a pound of organic produce to the NYC Food Bank.
