What’s a Local Box?

It's a bin of fresh, sustainably grown, local produce delivered to lucky residents of Austin and San Antonio, Texas, by Greenling, a home-delivery service that specializes in local and organic food.
How can you get your own Local Box?

Follow the link below to Greenling's website and enter your zip code under "Start Shopping Now." Scroll down and click on "View Starter Baskets" on the left-hand side of the screen. Click on "Local Box," then "Customize and Order." The Local Box costs $34.99 per week, plus a one-time, $10 deposit on the bin itself. After you've ordered, you'll be able to log in and modify your delivery schedule, choosing to receive the Local Box every week or at some other interval you choose, even canceling it when you'll be out of town, and more. Then check back here to see what to expect in your Local Box each week - and what other central Texans are doing with the bounty.
