Testimonials
“We are so gratified when customers write to us...we really appreciate when you take the time to give us feedback and kinds words! We get hundreds of happy emails each week, so if yours isn't here, it's because we are out picking perfect produce.”

“I cannot possibly express to you how picky I am when it comes to produce. The quality of Greenling is completely amazing! I am indeed eating so much healthier (more vegetarian) than I ever have before - it seems that shopping this way improves the choices I make. What a smart and positive contribution to your community.”

“WE ARE IN LOVE WITH GREENLING, the quality is fabulous, the delivery is amazing, the packing is totally unbelievable and the people are everything we all love about living in the great state of Austin.”
Allison W.
“I've been impressed with Greenling's commitment to customer service thus far, particularly the check-in call after the first few orders and the one yesterday to confirm a basket after a several-week lapse. This level of care sets the bar high. I'm a fan of the local produce basket and appreciate not only the mission to support local farmers, but also the attention to the quality of the food.”
Moira P.

Florence

“Thank you again for searching and finding new farmers and foods and providing something no one else does.”
Melisa S.
“Love fresh produce?
Love saving gas?
Love not having to deal with grocery lines and parking lots?
And how about organic AND locally grown?
If all this sounds good to you then greenling could be for you. Everything is delivered to your door in a tote. If you order cold things then they are contained in a keep cold bag with a bottle of frozen water. The product is great and the price is fairly comparable to grocery stores for similar items...”

We had lots of broccoli and green beans for dinner last night - very yummy.”

Laura W.
“Hi, I have been receiving the local box for 4 weeks now and I am VERY happy. I learned after the second week not to have any expectations (something I learned in my garden years ago, it takes tomato worms, squash bugs, or a feral pig just a night to ruin weeks of work). I just figure it will be a surprise and a good one. Thank you for a great product and good service.”
Laura
“I look forward to getting my orders every week! You guys save me lots of time and I appreciate that you continue to offer new items! By the way, I tried the local box for the first time last week and loved it.”

Mickey M
“I just wanted to say thanks for adding the Brussels sprouts to my order at the last minute (almost literally) yesterday!

Thanks again!”

“I got marigolds yesterday and put them in an omelette last night with the green pepper from my box, a yellow onion, and some sausage. I also sprinkled one of the tomatoes on the top. It was delicious. The only problem is that I was eyeing my neighbors marigolds on my walk this morning :)”
Lola
“A friend of mine just frwd. me an article about big Corp. owned organic companies & how they are putting pressure on Washington to loosen organic standards & I was reminded again that I want to thank you all at Greenling for supporting local farmers & for buying from sources like Ross Beef & even Applegate Farms (Farmer owned co-op). I am more than happy to pay a little more, if need be, to know that the source of my food is ethical & more sustainable. Keep up the good work, y'all :)”
Heather G.
