Say Organic

I must have heard myself numerous times complain about a measly six items I just bought from the supermarket costing over £20. Gross. I realised I was a “pay as you go” eater. Buying whatever I felt like having at the time which meant money flew out my pocket at an alarming rate. That together with reading “Eating Animals” by Jonathan Safran-Foer led me to source my food better and more economically. I was skeptical about the organic veg box thing at first, but I can tell you… the flatties and I are converted and almost despairing if I forget to order one. It feels like the house is never out of food, and there’s always something to have a go at cooking with the random veggies and fruit we have. I get a medium veg & fruit box combo that vary from £16-20 per week with different companies. Between the three of us, it works out roughly £6.50 each. Such good value for how much you get. We also get the meat boxes from Riverford and they are brilliant. Altogether we pay approx £12.50 each for organic meat, fruit and veg per week. I’ve saved over £100 a month with this. All towards the dream Celine bag fund haha. Cracking value and straight to the door. You have to try it. Packed with Love. From experience, I’d say The Organic Delivery Company and Riverford are the best guys out there, amazing service, prompt timing and easy to use. Plus the produce tastes amazing and is packed with recycled wrapping :) Not to be captain obvious, but it really has helped us eat healthy and to be more inventive in the kitchen. My flatmate Alex has this down to a tee – see some of her amazing recipes and beautiful photography at her food blog here. Froth!
