Being healthy is hard. Grabbing fast food or even just a easy frozen meal can always make a hectic day feel so much easier. I definitely always feel a bit gross after though, don’t you?
Luckily I recently discovered the Neighborhood Harvest and it has been a game changer for my husband and I!
The concept is simple, they deliver fresh, local and pesticide-free greens to your door once a week! And when I say fresh, I mean, they are harvested the day before the come to your door!
Their farm is in Suffolk, VA and is beyond cool. I had the opportunity to explore it because I am handling their social media (shameless plug ?) and I was blown away!
Everything is grown inside of a green house so all elements of the growing process are controlled. They have so many types of lettuces, cilantro (my fav), basil, tomatoes, and more! They even have farm raised eggs!
I never thought lettuce could be so pretty ?.
Weekly delivery boxes start at $11 per week. We choose a $13 weekly option that sends two lettuces, microgreens (which add a kick to any sandwich/salad), and either tomatoes or eggs. The night before they come, I put a cooler on my porch and when I wake up, it is filled with greens and ice packs! It is easier than I could have imagined and my favorite part has to be that the lettuce actually lasts longer than when store bought!
We made a delicious salad with it the other day and it was so simple! Greens, grilled chicken, apple, fetta, pine nuts and basalmic vinegar!
I honestly don’t know if we would be eating something like this without the Neighborhood Harvest. When I open the fridge and see it in there, it serves as a great reminder to take care of my body!
Want to give the Neighborhood Harvest a shot?
They deliver from Jamestown to Hickory and I’d highly suggest them (although I guess I might be bias?).
Use the code “Tilley” and get 75% off the one time sign up fee (making it just $5 instead of $20).
How cool is this! My sister just moved to Norfolk and I’m totally sharing this with her!
This is so awesome! Eating locally produce has so many perks and benefits not to mention supports your community! I love this!
This looks so cool! I’m definitely going to check to see if there’s anything like this near me!
This is really neat! I know of a lot of towns that are offering local goods at similar price points. I’ve been hitting up our local farmer’s market for lots of goodies like peaches, okra, and heirloom tomatoes.
This sounds awesome! I’d love something like this close to home!
This is such a cool concept!! Do they have this nationwide? I live in Chicago and would love fresh produce!
What!? If they deliver to Connecticut, I am SO in! We really need something like this by me. Such a bummer we don’t have it, too, but I LOVE the idea!

Oh wow this looks so nice! I wish we had that so close to us!

What a cool concept, delivering fresh greens like that to your door, so cool! Great salad ingredients, too!
oh, what a simple yet delicious looking salad! I love how you used local greens!
Oh, this is such a cool concept! I wish we had a similar service here in Malaysia. I love that they are pesticide-free, too! So convenient and healthy!
I wish this was available near me, because I would 100% take advantage of it! I love veggies, and this is cheaper than getting them at the grocery store. (And I’m willing to bet much healthier! Haha)

This is so cool! And, SO AFFORDABLE! We have a few CSA’s here in Arkansas, but they are still a bit pricey. Loving this!
Very cool concept… and healthy too! Glad you are enjoying the service and the greens!

I agree! That lettuce really looks pretty! And I’m sure it tastes good!
This is awesome! Not a bad price either!
