What’s in the box?
The table lists item availability throughout the season. While we can’t guarantee every item listed here or the exact timing, this is typical of what you might expect to choose from, along with a few surprises here and there!
Customize your box!
The Friday before each week, we’ll email you a link showing what is available. If you want the standard choices described for that week, no action is required. If you want more of one thing and less of another, or you want to substitute items, you can submit the form with your changes by Saturday night. The price will be the same regardless. Your box will be delivered the following Monday.
