Natures Garden Delivered: Organic Fruits and Veggies at My Doorstep!

I am a strong supporter of organic foods for many reasons, but sometimes when I'm grocery shopping, it is difficult for me to justify the higher costs. But now I have a wonderful source of organic produce, at a great cost, AND it gets delivered for free to my door every Friday morning. I have tried several of these services, but Natures Garden is my favorite. Easy healthy eating, that is a great Mommy Basic!

Their ordering process is a simple email sent to me every week letting me know what I'll be getting. I can approve the box or I can switch up to three items per week (for example, we don't like grapefruit, so I can switch to another favorite), or I can suspend the service that week. There are no sign-up fees.

The small box is $35 and is plenty for me, my husband and our veggie/fruit loving toddler. The produce has always been gorgeous and fresh. This week we'll be getting:
(Organic Local) APPLE - 3ea Gala
(Organic) BANANA - 2lbs Yellow
(OL) BERRY - 1ea Strawberries
(OL) CARROTS - 1ea Bagged
(OL) CHARD - 1ea Green
(OL) CUCUMBER - 0.75lbs Green
(OL) LETTUCE - 1ea Red Romaine
(OL) ONION - 0.5lbs Yellow
(OL) ORANGE - 3ea Valencias
(OL) PEACH - 2ea Peach
(O) PEAR - 3ea D'Anjou
(O) POTATO - 1.5lbs Russet
(OL) SPINACH - 1ea Spinach

Sometimes there are interesting things to try, and you can also add other items, like fresh bread, granola, olive oil, coffee, tea, etc. They are a zero waste facility which means they either recycle or compost virtually all of their waste. Plus they use Biobags, an alternative to the plastic bag which is fully biodegradable.

Now for the savings! You can save 20% off your first order by entering coupon code NGD CARDS during your sign up at Natures Garden Delivered. Enter my name, Stephanie Gerding, in the "How did you hear of us" section of the sign-up process too, please, as I'll get free products for every two sign ups!

If you aren't in the Phoenix area, look into other organic delivery options. Sometimes there a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) programs that will have pick up locations, if they don't do delivery.
