    • Yes! Swap meals, skip the upcoming week or change your delivery option each week by Sunday at 10pm and you can cancel at anytime. Just log in to your account preferences to make changes at any time.

  • Can I skip more than one week in a row?

    • Currently we post and you order on a weekly basis for the freshest local ingredients. Your commitment is to select your recipes or skip the upcoming week by our deadline each Sunday at 10 PM.

  • How much will I be charged?

    • Local Baskit offers three different Baskit Styles at different pricing levels: The Artisan Baskit features high quality meats and fish and unique ingredients for the adventurous cook, with challenging recipes and the ability to selection from any Baskit style. The average serving cost is $11-12 and kits range from $48 to $158 depending on your number of meals per week and your serving size. The Fresh Baskit features healthy and convenient selections with an average serving cost of $8-9. Select from five to six Fresh selections that offer a variety of healthy and often kid-approved meals.

The Simple Baskit provides many of the same recipes as the Fresh line, but we only deliver the produce and dry ingredients. You would supply the meat or fish for the recipe.
