Do you have a busy life and no time to shop for fresh produce? I know we do, what with our long work hours, crazy commutes, and side projects like nomnomboris. My husband and I are always looking for ways to make our lives easier, especially regarding eating healthy. If this sounds like you, then you’ll love the Seasonal Roots produce home delivery service! This service will deliver a box of fresh vegetables right to your door without you ever having to worry about what’s on sale or in season.
With this box, eating healthy and not wasting hours shopping has never been easier. Plus, you will be supporting local Virginia farms and sustainable farming practices. If you decide to sign up, make sure to use promo code NOMNOMBORIS for a $15 off membership. Now, let’s see what is inside and unbox it. Make sure you watch the video, as it turns out that we don’t always know our vegetables! Let us know if it’s funny or sad.
Unboxing
How does it work?
Signing up for Seasonal Roots is super easy and quick. It took us maybe 5 minutes to set it up and get ready to go. Unlike many other subscription services, Seasonal Roots has a yearly membership fee. This fee is similar to Costco or Amazon Prime’s annual membership fee but includes shipping. Depending on your box, you will get anywhere from 5 to 11 different veggies, but you can customize your weekly boxes if you crave something different. Increase the things you love and remove items you don’t like! You are in charge; no one can make you eat those tomatoes if you don’t want them. Do you like carrots more than okra? Click the plus and minus icons to make those veggie dreams come true! (We admit we don’t know how to cook okra ?) Plus, you can add extra items from their extensive menu selection! Adding items like honey, eggs, and other weekly staples will make your grocery life easier! You can update your order by 11:59 p.m. every Sunday or leave it as is without clicking a thing. Seasonal Roots makes switching to a biweekly frequency easy if you are out of town. We don’t customize our orders very much. Our house h and just let them pick for us. We are lazy, after all.
$15 Off Discount
Imagine having to spend the time and drive to a store for all this! Instead, we can spend our time writing this article for you! Don’t forget to use the promo code NOMNOMBORIS for $15 off a yearly membership.
Cost
Since this is a membership-type subscription, your first year is $50 and then $35 for every following year. Make sure to use the NOMNOMBORIS code to join for $15 off. While there is an early charge, each box’s cost is very reasonable for the amount of food you receive, not to mention the impact you are making by supporting responsible, local farming.

Our First Box
Our first box included so much food that we couldn’t eat all in one go, and then the second box arrived! It’s a good thing there is a pause button so we won’t drown in veggies. We do not like wasting food — this is one case where size matters. Make sure to pick the right box size for you and your family. Our first box had great nomnoms, like carrots, strawberries, beetroot, leeks, and other tasty things. Everything was fresh and ripe, so there was no need to wait before cooking it orbiting right in. But don’t forget to wash these veggies first! As you might have noticed in the video, we must admit that we don’t always know our veggies’ names. They tasted great anyway!

The Veggie Fairies (the super cute name for their crew) have recently expanded their delivery area to Montgomery County, Maryland. You can also receive this box if you live in the following Virginia counties/areas: Northern Virginia, Hampton Roads, Richmond, and Williamsburg.
