Organic Groceries On Your Doorstep
Posted on June 12, 2008 by
Ever wish your groceries would just magically show up on your doorstop? They can.
I’m Not Obsessed had a link to this list of grocery delivery services last week. If you scroll down, there’s a group of organic grocery delivery businesses. Most are regional, and shipping or delivery charges are always a factor.
Have you ever used a grocery service or ordered food items online?
When I was laid up, I used Peapod to get my groceries delivered. It was great, but for the fact that everything arrived in plastic bags. I’m still going through them for kitty litter disposal.
(Speaking of, so far Micki is not taking to shredded newspaper, despite how long it took me to make. I think I’m going to have to mix in more of the old stuff until she gets the point.)
Yeah, I’ve heard the mixing is the best way to acclimate. My cat is freakish about her ability to adjust to new litter. Doesn’t make up for the puking, but it is a nice feature in a cat.
A lot of places out West and in the North East are doing this a lot. Also, even here in Memphis we have CSA’s that will bring your groceries to your door. Granted, you are limited to what they have growing this year, but there are no grocery stores that have that service around here. Out of the whole city of Memphis, we only have one CSA. Memphis is always behind on these things.
Please, I hope I hope I hope, there is one listed by me other than Door-to-Door Organics — I used to use them all the time, and friends still do. Their service went way down when ownership/manager changed. Mmm…. I miss coming home on Wednesdays to find fresh produce waiting for me.
