Our Mission
BOXED ORGANICS
For a healthier us
and a healthier planet
At Boxed Organics we believe locally produced, organic and sustainably grown food should be available and affordable for everyone. We do our part to make this happen and invite you to join us. With Boxed Organics as your primary food source, you will save money and time.
​
We source seasonally from local farmers year round but also go a little further afield in the depths of winter so that you will always have a full and varied box of produce in your kitchen. Because we work with a number of local farmers we have access to a wide variety of heirloom fruits and vegetables. In addition to our ‘old faithful’ items, we introduce you to rare and unusual varieties and then show you what to do with them. We provide easy to follow recipes so that you can have fun cooking with your box.
​
Sourcing locally means that the produce is super fresh, often picked less than 24 hours before you get it. This freshness and sustainable growing practices result in the tastiest produce you’ve ever had. You won’t believe it’s the same fruit. You thought you knew what an apple tasted like but you didn’t!
​
By reducing the use of harmful pesticides, herbicides and long-distance transportation we directly positively impact the health of our planet and our children.
​
Boxed Organics is a Community Based Organization serving Montclair and surrounding communities in New Jersey.
We know our farmers and farms. We support farms with ethical work practices. These include fair wages and healthy working conditions for all connected with the farm.
​
By working with smaller farms we directly impact our farming families' ability to keep those farms going.
​
We build community, both in our membership group and between our members and our farmers. Please explore our website to meet some of our farmers and learn more about the importance of sustainably grown local produce for human and environmental health and well-being.

Boxed Organics combines the best of traditional CSA and local food coop practices. As a mission driven organization we work towards a triple bottom line – People, Planet, Profit.
