Gift Guide: Bella Bean Organics

Started holiday shopping yet? Well, instead of a traditional gift card you might want to consider giving the gift of "farm-to-door delivery." 

Produce and other delivery services offer a great alternative to just a boring old gift basket.

I'm a fan of Bella Bean Organics,which is from the same folks who run Coon Rock Farm in Hillsborough. This service focuses on local, organic sustainably raised produce, meat and artisan products.

Unlike a lot of CSA's, you can get other stuff besides the traditional produce or meat. They have soap, cocktail mixes and more! 

I love the local products available. Some of my favorite items to order are La Farm bread, Big Spoon Peanut Butter, jams from Shelly Mac Farm in Durham and meats from Coon Rock Farm.

You just go online, create your box and get it delivered right to your door.

Deliveries are made once a week, and Bella Bean covers North and South Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and Washington D.C.
