Calling all Chefs: we invite you to Think Inside The Box! 📦
Think Inside The Box is an initiative we created to connect the Greater Phoenix community with Chefs across the Valley who believe in empowering Arizonans in need. 🤝
How it works:
Chefs create a unique dish (or dishes) from scratch out of a typical NourishPHX foodbox. Food boxes that we serve to families contain five main food groups: Protein, Grains, Dairy, Fruit and Vegetables.
We showcase footage of your creativity and approach to creating a gourmet dish with simple, straightforward ingredients.
The purpose of Think Inside The Box is four-fold:
• to show the community and our guests that they can make healthy, delicious, economical & high quality meals right at home from standard grocery ingredients found in a NourishPHX food box.
• to share your and your restaurant’s unique story, culture and brand.
• to allow the community to participate in the impact that happens at the intersection of local craft cuisine and cause.
• to underscore the mission of NourishPHX: to help end poverty for working-poor families and assist those needing support in our current economic crisis.
We’re thankful for @ChefJeffKraus from the @CrepeBar for piloting this initiative, and we’re excited to show more of his unique ‘Think Inside The Box’ creations!
🚨 If you’re a local chef or restaurant owner who would like to participate in Think Inside The Box, send us a DM or email us directly at [email protected].

Thank you for your generosity & for spreading the word! 🙏
Our Food Box Happy Hours have been a hit - help spread the word so even more families can get in on this specialty service! 🙏
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The purpose of our Food Box Happy Hours is to give working families an opportunity to pick up groceries when best for their schedule.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our regular food pantry hours are from 9-11am, and since some guests can't make it during that time, we've extended grocery pick-up times to 4-6pm on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of the month!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Food Box Happy Hour time slots are available by reservation only - pick-ups can be scheduled online via link in bio! 🔗
We are very excited to welcome back the team from @clipdart to provide free haircuts!
Thank you for the partnership to help everyone look & feel their best!
