Organic Veggie Delivery Review

A couple of months ago I saw an organic delivery service on Groupon. Freggies was offering $60 of produce for just $24, it was an offer I couldn't refuse! Not only was I excited to get to try this service, but I also got to cross it off of the goal list for this year. Woot!!

I was super excited to get the delivery; in my area they offer delivery on Wednesdays. The special was for a variety of produce; their regular customers get to choose what they're receiving each week.

The box was delivered to my front door, and my dogs helped me check it out. :) This is what I received in the box (with the regular prices, but remember I obviously got them for much cheaper):4 bagels from Seattle Bagel Bakery $3.99

Cherry tomatoes 3.99

2 pears 2.54

Nectarine 1.65

Plum 2.64/lb

Lemon 1.24

Orange .78

Kiwi 3.63/lb

Banana 1.52

2 broccoli heads 7.70

Green onions 1.21

Carrots 3.33

2 potatoes 2? (estimated)

Cucumber 2.9

Mini Watermelon 6.32

Leek 2.9

Onion 1.25

Bag of romaine hearts 4.99


Overall I was quite pleased with the variety. I would never pay over $6 for a mini watermelon, but it was still fun to try. All of the produce tasted fresh and delicious, and I would order from Freggies again. However, I feel their prices are a little high on some items (for example, I can get the exact same organic carrots from AmazonFresh for cheaper).

I enjoyed having to find recipes in order to use some of these vegetables, and overall it was a very pleasant experience!
