Can Local, Fresh & Delicious Food be Affordable?
Yes, with Lettuce, it can be!
We believe access to high-quality, nutritious, fresh, and affordable food should be a basic human right.
Explore how Lettuce compares in price/value to other places you can buy food:
Lettuce vs. the Grocery Store
On average, the total cost of what Lettuce delivers every week comes to less than what you would pay at the grocery store per serving. As an example, here's a breakdown of what's in the produce container for the dish Chicken Shawarma Salad.

Price: ~$12.50
$40 for 3 meals (4 servings each)

Time consumed: Priceless
Inconvenience: Priceless
Gas: ~$2/gal
Carbon footprint: Significant
So, the only question is: Why would you not?
Notes:
– Based on recent average grocery store prices for organic produce across the US.
– Prices for items such as herbs are per bunch, because that is how they are typically sold. But recipes rarely require more than a few sprigs. Result: The remainder often rots in the fridge and needs to be thrown out. Lettuce includes only what a recipe needs – so you save money, time, space and avoid waste.
Lettuce vs. National Meal Kit Services
Not only is Lettuce better than all other meal kits - local, fresh with no wasteful packaging - it is also a lot more affordable. See for yourself!
Price is just one aspect of it. Compared to other meal kit services, Lettuce is better every other way, including:
– Fresh as it can be: Most of the produce is picked the day it is delivered.
– Near zero-waste: No ice packs, wrappers, and cardboard to throwaway.
– Instant gratification: Same day delivery (coming soon!).
– Community: Support your local economy, schools and the environment.
So, How Are Lettuce Prices So Low?
We are reinventing the where, when, what, why and how of the way food is grown, packaged and delivered - eliminating efficiencies, while improving quality.
Over the decades, correctly or incorrectly, local, fresh food has ended up being perceived as expensive.
Lettuce is on a mission to change that, for real and at scale.
Here are a few factors that enable us to spawn a low cost, high-quality urban farming network and food delivery service:
We partner with local farmers
Hyperlocal logistics
New farming model
Reduced food waste
Sustainability
Technology-driven
