How Daily Harvest Works

With Daily Harvest you are subscribing to a weekly or monthly delivery of your favorite plant-based prepared meals and snacks.

When you sign up you make a few key choices (which also impact price, shown below):

1. Choose how many items you want in each box
2. Browse their wide selection of items including smoothies, bowls, flatbreads, soups, and ice cream.
3. Fill your box with items - prices vary per item
4. Choose your first delivery day
5. Choose how often you want to receive your boxes
6. Check out and your delivery will arrive when you scheduled!

As long as you update your order in advance, you can change your selections in each box and always get what you want.

Pricing Options

The price you pay depends on the price of the items you add to your box, how many you order, and how often you get a box delivered.

And here are the prices of each item which will impact how much your actual box costs:

So the cheapest small box of nine $5.99 items would cost about $54.

An average medium box of fourteen $7.99 items would cost about $112, or $102 after discount.

The largest big box of twenty-four $8.99 items would cost about $216, or $196 after discount.

Your box could be anywhere in between!

Packaging is recyclable so you can be confident that not only are you wasting less food by getting exactly what you want delivered, but that box isn’t going straight to a landfill.

Is Daily Harvest Worth It?

Daily Harvest is perfect for anyone who wants convenient, plant-based, delicious food for breakfast or lunch. You can get exactly what you want and you can be confident it will be delicious.

If you don’t need plant-based foods, if you prefer large meals for breakfast, or if you are looking more for dinner meal options, then Daily Harvest might not be for you.

How Daily Harvest Compares to Other Top Meal Subscriptions

Daily Harvest VS Splendid Spoon: Each of these is a plant-based, vegan prepared meal delivery service focusing on breakfast and lunch with smoothies as their best-selling items. Daily Harvest emphasizes variety and choice for you to pick whichever items you want in the quantity you want, whereas Splendid Spoon is anchored to choosing to receive 5 items for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, with most people using it for breakfast and lunch only. Prices are very similar, with Splendid Spoons breakfast and lunch plan costing $95, whereas Daily Harvest varies depending on what items you choose from around $75 to $115 for fourteen items. Splendid Spoon only sends meals for 5 days a week, leaving you on your own for the weekend.

Daily Harvest VS Purple Carrot: These are both vegan meal subscription boxes, however Purple Carrot specializes in dinner whereas Daily Harvest is better for breakfast, lunch, and snacking. You might find yourself getting a Tofu Tikka Masala from Purple Carrot, and more likely getting an Acai Blueberry smoothie from Daily Harvest. That said, overall Purple Carrot is slightly more affordable costing as low as $8.30 for dinner vs the $7.99 average price for Daily Harvest items. Together these two subscriptions might make sticking to a plant based diet very easy.

Daily Harvest VS Freshly: Both of these meal subscriptions specialize in convenience, delivering prepared meals that require little cooking time. While Daily Harvest specializes in only plant-based options, Freshly specializes in more standard dinner options for people without dietary restrictions. That said, Freshly does have plant-based options, so if you aren’t fully committed to going plant based, you can mix and match with Freshly. Freshly costs as low as $8.99 per meal vs Daily Harvest’s $5.99 - $8.99 range.
