Central Texas Farms Deliver Fresh Produce with UberEATS

At UberEATS we celebrate the stories of the cities we serve, and feature restaurants who take pride in their food and the ingredients they use. This summer, we’re excited to be going straight to the source of those fresh, healthy ingredients in the dishes we love through a unique partnership with local farmers.

Starting this Saturday, May 28, we’re working with local farmers to make fresh fruits and vegetables available for delivery through the UberEATS app. Each Saturday, we’ll feature assorted boxes of produce, hand-picked and curated by farmers based on what’s in season and available at their farmers’ market booth, and we’ll deliver them right to your door. 100% of the box proceeds will go direct to the farmers who harvested them.

We’re thrilled to make this happen through a partnership with Sustainable Food Center, who creates direct connections between farmers and customers in Central Texas, increasing food access to those that need it most. UberEATS will join their family of programs in making fresh, healthy, local fruits and vegetables available to as many people as possible.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with UberEATS to help distribute farm fresh produce from our SFC Farmers’ Market Downtown to the Austin community. This program directly advances our mission of supporting our farmers and improving access to nutritious food by creating a new and innovative marketplace” -Ronda Rutledge, Executive Director at Sustainable Food Center

“We’re excited to have our local, organic produce delivered straight to homes by the latest product from the sharing economy–UberEATS. It’s never been easier to nourish the body and contribute to the wellbeing of your farmers and greater community by purchasing the best fruits and vegetables Texas has to offer through this program.” –Cas Vanwoerden, Owner of Animal Farm in Cat Spring, TX
