3 Ways to Order Local Food from Acme Farms + Kitchen

If you’re looking for an easier way to put fresh, local food on your family’s table, Acme Farms + Kitchen was built for you.

We’re a Pacific Northwest meal kit and local food delivery service based in Bellingham, Washington. We work with local farmers, ranchers, bakers, makers, and producers to bring high-quality food straight to your doorstep—while making meal planning, grocery shopping, and cooking a whole lot easier.

And one thing we want every Acme customer to know is:

There isn’t just one way to shop Acme.

You can choose a weekly subscription box, build your own order from our rotating menu of meal kits, shop local groceries and Marketplace favorites—or combine all three in the same order.

Here’s how it works.

1. Local Meal Kit Subscription Boxes: Let Us Plan Dinner for You

If figuring out “What’s for dinner?” every single night feels like one decision too many, our meal kit subscription boxes are for you.

Think of this as the set-it-and-forget-it way to eat local.

Instead of choosing every individual dinner, you simply choose the type of meals that best fit your household, with options like:

  • Family Classics
  • Quick + Simple
  • Vegetarian
  • Gluten + Dairy Free
  • Vegan
  • Mediterranean
  • Surf, Turf + other rotating options

Then, we do the meal planning for you.

Our team builds the weekly menu around seasonal ingredients, delicious recipes, and food sourced from the local farmers and producers we trust.

You get the convenience of a traditional meal kit subscription, but with something we believe makes Acme very different: a local-first food system connecting your dinner table to farms and food businesses right here in our region.

Less meal planning. Less decision fatigue. More home-cooked dinners.

2. Build Your Own Meal Kit Box: Choose Exactly What Sounds Good

Maybe you love browsing the menu.

Maybe you have a house full of different tastes.

Or maybe you just saw a pasta, soup, curry or 15-minute dinner that you absolutely have to try.

That’s where our Build Your Own meal kits come in.

Each week, Acme offers a large rotating selection of chef-designed meals featuring seasonal ingredients and a variety of cuisines, proteins, vegetarian options, quick meals, family favorites and more.

No meal kit subscription is required.

Simply browse the weekly menu, choose the dinners that sound good to you, and build your own box. And don’t forget, EVERY WEEK IS A NEW MENU!

And if you already have an Acme subscription?

You can shop here, too!

Add another dinner for a particularly busy week. Try something outside your normal subscription box. Add a quick meal for soccer night. Grab an extra meal so you don’t have to think about dinner on Friday.

Your Acme order can be as simple—or as stocked—as you need it to be.

3. Shop Local Groceries + Marketplace Favorites

Here’s the part some customers don’t discover right away:

Acme isn’t only for meal kits.

You can also shop our local grocery and Marketplace selection and have those items delivered along with your meals.

Depending on the week and season, you might find things like:

Local meat and seafood. Fresh bread and baked goods. Eggs. Milk and yogurt. Local cheese. Seasonal produce. Pantry staples. Breakfast foods. Treats. Specialty products from local makers.

And… Don’t forget the chocolate milk. 😉

Need another pound of ground beef for taco night? Add it.

Want a loaf of local bread for breakfast? Add it.

Running low on eggs and yogurt? Add them.

See a seasonal fruit or vegetable you don't want to miss? Into the box it goes.

If we’re already coming to your house, why not let us help stock your fridge, too?

The Best Part? You Can Shop All Three.

You don’t have to decide whether you’re a “subscription customer,” a “meal kit customer,” or a “grocery customer.”

You can be all three.

Start with your weekly subscription box.

Add a couple of individual meal kits that caught your eye.

Then browse the Marketplace for local meat, bread, dairy, produce, pantry staples, breakfast foods and whatever else your household needs.

One Acme delivery can help take care of multiple dinners—and quite a few of those little grocery store runs, too.

Local Food Delivery in Bellingham, Seattle, Portland + Beyond

Acme Farms + Kitchen delivers throughout communities in Greater Bellingham, Greater Seattle, and Greater Portland, including areas such as Bellingham, Ferndale, Lynden, Anacortes, Mount Vernon, Seattle, Bellevue, Kirkland, Everett, Tacoma, Portland, Vancouver, WA, and many surrounding communities.

Unlike national meal kit companies that ship boxes long distances, Acme is built around a regional food system. We source from local producers first, and as much as possible, and carefully pack our food, and we have our own local delivery drivers.

That means choosing Acme isn't only about making dinner easier.

It's about choosing where your food dollars go.

Every Acme order helps create demand for the farmers, ranchers, bakers, makers and small food businesses producing incredible food throughout our region.

Fill your box. Stock your fridge. Make dinner easier. Discover incredible local food.

And know that every time you do, you're helping support the local farmers and food producers who make our Pacific Northwest food community so special.
