This is how you do fresh, local, responsible meal kits.
Introducing meal kits, à la Lufa Farms.
We've been cooking up a new category on the Marketplace over the past couple of weeks, and we’re now ready to show the world how fresh, local, responsible meal kits are done.
- No pre-portioning, no waste. Our recipes are designed to use up each regular portion of ingredients as much as possible (you can use the rest in future recipes), which means less packaging, less waste, and more value per meal portion. Also, all the ingredients are shipped as is, in your weekly basket, so there’s no separate packing and shipping.
- Local, seasonal, traceable ingredients. Make the most of peak season ingredients with well-crafted, original recipes, available on-and-off depending on seasonality. Plus, know exactly where and how and by whom these ingredients were made thanks to all the details provided on the Marketplace.
- Flexible recipes. Substitute ingredients as you like and adapt recipes according to your food preferences or restrictions. You can remove items you already have at home, like olive oil, flour, or spices, and only get the ingredients you actually need. Plus, you can try different recipes each week and build them into your meal planning as you like.
Give farm-to-table meal kits a try!
We've already thought out the recipe planning for you. Simply browse our Meal Kits category, click on a recipe you’d like to try, customize the ingredients to add to your regular weekly basket, and get cooking! The recipe steps are available on the Marketplace and in your order summary email. You can also add a recipe card (they’re handy, sturdy, and printed on recycled paper) if you prefer a printout to cook with, save for later, and maybe share with someone.
Keep the feedback coming.
We’re still testing out the recipes, ingredients, and features on the Marketplace, and getting feedback from Lufavores as we go - thus the beta! But we. are. pumped. It makes so much sense to put all the outstanding ingredients on our Marketplace to work in good, simple, sustainable recipes. Please keep the feedback coming, and keep an eye out for new recipes every week!
P.S. The secret ingredient in all our recipes? A super dedicated team. Our purchasing team suggests and sources ingredients, Rowen is the avid home cook who’s been hard-at-work creating the recipes, our dev team built the web side of things, and our marketing crew takes the photos, and writes up finished recipes each week.
