what's in this week's box?
Next Week's Harvest (Shipped Week of October 13th)
Note: These items are estimates and may vary slightly, especially if we have a fall frost which kills crops before we can harvest. There’s always a bit of beautiful unpredictability when growing food in real soil, not in climate-controlled hydroponic buildings. We harvest in step with the natural rhythms of the season, so your box reflects exactly what Mother Nature provides that week since we harvest and ship on the same day.

Produce is shipped each week on Tuesday for a Wednesday or Thursday delivery depending on your location.
Produce ships in separate from other items in your order.
Thank you for being part of our very first season of produce boxes! Instead of chemicals, we use traditional, old-fashioned practices like companion planting, mulch and hay ground covers, and compost to naturally suppress weeds, enrich the soil, and boost nutrient density.

how does it work?
Our seasonal produce boxes are available from late May through early October. Subscribers get first access, but any extra boxes will be added to inventory on a week-to-week basis.
Each box is roughly the size of a Quarter Bushel and typically provides enough produce for a family of 2–4, depending on how much produce your household uses.
The box contents change each week, reflecting what’s naturally in season.
This natural variety:
- - Reconnects you with seasonal eating patterns
- - Introduces new flavors and unique varieties
- - Inspires creativity in the kitchen
- - Supports regenerative, chemical-free farming
- - Builds a direct relationship with the farmers who grow your food
What makes this project so special is the partnership behind it: a few small regenerative farms working together to grow nutrient-dense produce, the old-fashioned way. These aren’t industrial monocrop fields that rely on chemicals to battle nature.
These are diverse, living farms that work with nature, who are harvesting, packing, and shipping fresh to your door all in the same day.

Recipe ideas:
Rhubarb: A tangy vegetable often used like a fruit in traditional desserts. Stew it down with honey or maple syrup, lemon, and a pinch of salt for a rhubarb compote to top yogurt or sourdough toast. Or try a classic rhubarb crisp with oats and butter, savory chutneys paired with meat, or a classic rhubarb and strawberry pie that your great great grandmother likely made!
Cabbage: A humble yet nutrient-dense vegetable with deep roots in ancestral cuisine. Traditionally used in dishes like sauerkraut, kimchi, and braised stews, cabbage supports gut health and digestion, especially when fermented or slow-cooked. Cabbage can be shredded into soups, roasted with tallow or ghee, or gently simmered with beef and onions for a rice bowl. I like to slice and sauté it low and slow in butter or ghee until tender and slightly sweet, then finish with sea salt and a dash of vinegar.

Radishes: Crisp, peppery, and often underestimated. Radishes are rich in vitamin C and sulfur compounds that support detox pathways and digestion. While delicious raw in salads or sliced with butter and sea salt, they mellow beautifully when roasted or sautéed. For a more ancestral twist, try slow-roasting them in tallow or ghee until golden

Zucchini: Mild, versatile, and abundant. A summer staple that’s easy to love: mild in flavor, rich in hydration, and packed with vitamin C, and potassium. It can be spiralized into noodles, shredded into fritters, sautéed with garlic and herbs, or baked into nourishing breads and muffins. Few veggies are as adaptable: zucchini bridges the gap between sweet and savory with ease.

Collard Greens: my favorite vegetable! And a surprisingly rich source of bioavailable calcium. For best digestion, collards should be cooked down well. Traditionally simmered in soups or stews with a ham hock or bones, this method breaks down tough fibers and enhances the flavor. I like to boil them for ~40 minutes, then reheat with tallow, ghee, or butter and salt at mealtime. You can also toss chopped collards into a soup, stew, or bone broth during the last 30–60 minutes of cooking.

seasonal produce box faqs
What to do if something arrives wilted?
Don’t worry, it can happen occasionally, especially with tender greens during hot months. Many leafy vegetables are easily revived by slightly trimming the ends and soaking them in an ice water bath for 15–30 minutes. For anything beyond repair, please reach out, we want to make it right.
When will my box ship?
We split shipments between Monday and Thursday, depending on your location, to ensure the freshest possible delivery.
- Boxes arrive 1–2 days after shipment
- If you’re outside the 2-day ground window, we upgrade to 2-Day Express
- You’ll receive a tracking link via email once it ships
- Note: If you ordered other items, your produce box will ship separately to preserve freshness.
Can I skip a week if I’m out of town?
Absolutely! You can manage your subscription on your account on the site.
Because we harvest, pack, and ship all on the same day, please do this before Sunday at 1 pm ET before boxes are shipped out the following week.
Why this size?
Have to stay within a certain size constraint for shipping pricing from FedEx. But will explore better options for next year.
Are there customizations?
Not just yet, but that’s the dream for 2026. This first season is all about building a foundation, testing systems, and learning from your experience.
That said, the natural variety from week to week:
- - Reconnects you to the rhythms of seasonal eating
- - Introduces new heirloom varieties
- - Inspires culinary creativity
- - Supports regenerative agriculture
Our produce is grown in real soil, not in hydroponic warehouses. So we harvest what Mother Nature provides, in alignment with the season’s rhythms—just like our great-great-grandmothers once did.
