Why is some of my produce bagged?
Some items like green beans or brussels sprouts need to be weighed and will roll around in your box if they are not bagged. Bagging some items keeps them from bruising. Plus, most produce items need to be put in a bag to stay fresh longer in your refrigerator. Reuse the baggies in your box.
Why is my box lined with a big paper liner?
For food safety. We reuse your box and we do want to put your food in a used box that another member had in their garage. Cats love boxes! Your paper liner is recyclable so discard in your blue trash can. Or, fold it up and store it for future use.
Can I return the empty boxes?
