FAQ For Trusslers Pantry
2 Boxes every month. Your monthly payment covers a whole month of service, this includes 2 larger boxes delivered every month. *Any month that has 5 weeks the Harvest uses this week for inventory and vacation time. Please refer to your calendar for 5 weeks of months.
8-12 Varieties of Veggies and 2 Varieties of Fruit. Your Harvest box comes with locally sourced produce, fresh from the farms that we work with. Our source is ALWAYS Local first and ALWAYS Organic when we can’t find what we need we source from Ontario Certified Organic Farmers. Each box is packed with a beautiful variety of farm-fresh foods for you and your family to enjoy.
Our Farm Fresh eggs are Brown in Color. All our eggs are from free-range hens that are fed Non-Gmo and Organic grains, are set out on pasture during the warm months, and raised on small traditional family farms – Matheson to be precise.

- Organically Fed
- Foraged in green grass
- Winter foraging on dried grass
- Feed does not contain antibiotics or any medications
- Pasture fields do not contain Pesticides and Herbicides
Omits have always been a part of our service that we are proud to offer, however offering omits is not only tedious but very time-consuming. Omits are used for dietary restrictions or diets that do not permit certain vegetables and fruits. We ask that our Harvest Members only omit produce that is prohibited on their diets/lifestyles. Our weekly newsletter with the list of produce is not intended to be a list to switch things for others every week, it is there to help you meal plan and work around your bin. We are not set up like a Big Amazon and do not have assembly machinery and computers that generate changes, everything we do is by hand. We here at Trussler’s Pantry are not a grocery store, we work with farmers and this makes customizing your bin too difficult and taxing on our small business, please be considerate when making changes.
We ask that you only OMIT produce because of serious reasons, such as allergies, change in diet or change in lifestyle. We thank you in advance.
Changes must be made 48 hours before delivery to info@trusslerspantry.ca
If you choose to opt-out of eggs the Pantry will provide more veggies and fruits in replacement of your eggs.
Our Harvest is sourced fresh and for that reason, your harvest box will last well over a week. If you use the tips for storage that we include in our newsletters and write-ups you can make your box last well over two weeks. Upon sign up you will receive a laminated copy of ” How to store Organic Produce”, this should help out a lot with questions about storage.
You will receive more of what is available. Each box is packed according to value, if you omitted produce or eggs it will be replaced with items of the same value. This is not item for item, it is calculated on cost. For example, you omit Cauliflower, you may receive 2 tomatoes.
We take great care to ensure that all of our food is packed safely; if you have an allergy please let us know and we will carefully pack your bins.
There is no minimum subscription length. It’s important to us that our members want to be on our program.
