We all struggle to find time to pick up all the items we need from the grocery store or farmer’s market (especially without forgetting something). We are always looking for something quick + convenient, but also locally made or sourced.

Meet The Carolina Crate, Lowes Foods’ version of a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) box. It’s super simple: the box of seasonal produce is delivered from small farmers in the Carolinas to your local Lowes Foods store each week along with recipes + info about the farms you’re supporting. You can pick up the boxes in the Lowes Foods to Go drive-thru– so you don’t even have to run inside the store.

You can sign up until June 4 for a full share (10 weeks plus a free week, for 11 weeks total) at $250 total or a half share (5 weeks) for half the price. Each box feeds 2-4 people and includes 6-8 varieties of produce based on what’s in season. It’s a surprise each week + that’s the fun of the box.

Bonus: If you order a full share, you will also receive a one-year subscription to Lowes Foods to Go (a $99 value; a half share receives 3 months free). Whatever you choose– it helps reduce the amount of fuel used to transport the produce from one place to another + supports small farmers in the Carolinas.
