Guest Post: Teasure Box ~ Food Boxes, A Week of Food for $30.00

Here is a review for the Treasure Box (www.thetreasurebox.org)
By Rachel Pocknell

Treasure Box is a box of frozen food that says it is enough to feed a family of four, lunch & dinner for a week, or a single person for nearly a month. The box is around 21-25 pounds of food and the price is $30. The menu is somewhat different each month and they offer 3 different kinds of treasure boxes. The regular box which includes meats, sides, soups, veggies, and a dessert. The “quick and healthy” box is basically just TV dinners. They also offer a protein box which consists of 10-12 pounds of frozen meats.

Signing up is very simple, you purchase it online at their website and pay up front. You choose your pick up location at the same time as purchase, they have multiple pick up stations around the Valley mostly at churches. We are impressed with our regular treasure box although I’m not sure it is quite enough to feed a family of four for a week. The quality of the food is great, we’ve had no issues with that (I especially like the broccoli cheese soup)! So long as you like just about everything that is on that month’s menu, I think it is worth the money. I would personally stay away from the “Quick and Healthy” box, as it is just TV dinner type meals and in addition to not tasting that great, I don’t think it’s worth the money on that one!
