Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to be home? expand_more
While our packaging maintains temperature for up to 72 hours, we strongly recommend being available to receive your delivery or having a designated shaded area for drop-off to ensure maximum freshness.
Dry goods vs Fresh food expand_more
Dry goods (spices, grains, flours) ship standard across all days. If your order contains both dry and fresh items, we ship them together according to the Freshness Schedule to minimize packaging waste.
Reusing gel packs expand_more
Our gel packs are non-toxic and reusable! Simply pop them in your freezer for your next picnic, or check our sustainability guide for disposal instructions if you'd like to recycle the outer casing.
