Sustainability
Convenience doesn't have to come at a steep price to the planet.
Modern retail generates a ton of waste. We believe that waste is the result of bad design. So, we're designing a different version of commerce, one that wastes less. Our mission? Reduce the waste in our homes so everyday choices have a positive impact in our neighborhoods.

Our Approach
We source in bulk to avoid waste throughout the supply chain.
We believe in staying stocked from up the block. Sourcing locally avoids the transportation impact of shipping products from further afield. We work with our local partners to find creative ways to reduce waste — like packaging spring mix from the local farm in a reusable container or closing the loop by getting coffee from our neighborhood roaster in reusable bins. Even better, offering local options helps our communities thrive.
We partner with local producers & purveyors to reduce impact.

We optimize our scheduled deliveries to maximize efficiency.
Yes, we deliver via e-bike and electric van, but efficiency goes beyond our vehicles. Our once-a-week delivery model makes it possible to map out the most eco-friendly delivery routes for you and your neighbors. Scheduled delivery also makes it possible to predict and fulfill your orders with less packaging and food waste.
