26 April, 2021: We’re trying to figure out digital marketing. I keep feeling like I just have to hold my nose. We used a company called Marketerhire (bad name I know, but at least it saves me from explaining what they do!) They connected us with a digital marketing specialist. He’s smart and fun to work with and has the… Read More
22 April, 2021: Mother’s Day is May 9! Our newest meal box creates not only one meal, but an entire day of relaxation, starting with breakfast in bed, pausing for a springy lunch, and ending with an extra fancy (but not fussy) Italian dinner. For dessert, local rhubarb appears for the first time, in the form of a rhubarb crisp… Read More
20 April, 2021: A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…a meal box lands on your home planet. You, a brave cook, open it and find a strange assortment of intergalactic meals…Yoda Pancakes, Blue Milk, Millenium Fal’corn, Bantha Meat Sandwiches, Pita Pizza Planets, Slurpy Soup, and Yoda Soda… May The Fourth Box Your job: choose how to use… Read More
24 November, 2008: The truck and I are having fun at Brookline Coal and Ice. This is where we fill our Propane tank every couple of days. We have extremely efficient appliances (50,000 btu each for the fryer, 30,000 btu for the oven). Today the fill pump at the station isn’t working, making an already long day longer. They’re working… Read More
17 April, 2021: Try a meal box next week Chris first discovered Seven Hills Pasta last year and we’ve been absolutely stunned and honored to have them right in our backyard. If you’ve tried some of the pasta dishes in our meal boxes, you may have gotten hooked too. We haven’t had pasta this good since the Clover trip to Italy! The next 100 people to… Read More
15 April, 2021: Earth Day is approaching and your neighborhood planet-saving chickpea-frying friends are here with an Earth Day Challenge and an Earth Day Box! Chris, did you say Nachos on the menu?!! The Atlantic reported this month that the single biggest change you can make to your diet to help mitigate climate change is to eat less meat. And every year more and more people… Read More
13 April, 2021: Our Easter box helped us run through the supply of Winter Moon Roots carrots. Luckily Brookford Farm in New Hampshire has a crop of beautiful organic roots, so we were able to bring back the Carrot Sandwich, the only Clover sandwich to have a love letter written to it (by an avowed carnivore no less!). Paul dreamed… Read More
8 April, 2021: The seasons are changing and we’re so excited to announce a Spring Box on the menu! Place your order now to get the first Spring Box of the year with free delivery to your doorstep starting Thursday 4/15. So what can you expect in the box? MEAL 1: FAMOUS CARROT SANDWICHES AND FARRO SALAD! – Fluffy house pita… Read More
20 November, 2017: That pop-up thing has had some amazing highs (Grillos, the wonderful FoMu, Union Donuts, and the cash for warhol stand out in my mind). But it takes a ton of management to do well, and I just don’t have somebody to put on it. We’re focused on other things (we’re growing 40% or so right now!) I… Read More
7 April, 2021: We sent out a few Maple Boxes late in March with double the correct amount of dry pancake mix. This was a bummer because 1.) our Maple Box was hugely popular and 2.) when made right our pancakes are delicious! If you were one of the folks who got the incorrect mix and made pancakes before we… Read More
6 April, 2021: Tomorrow (Wednesday 4/7), two seasonal sandwiches emerge from our recipes vault and onto our menu. One breakfast. One lunch. These sandwiches are so popular that we’ve even overheard people ask “What Chickpea Fritter?” after trying the Nashville Hot, and “What Classic Breakfast Sandwich?” after trying the French! So we are super excited to bring these new favorites back (although we… Read More
3 April, 2021: Try a meal box next week Despite what the display at your local grocery store tells you, the first sign of spring in New England isn’t asparagus or strawberries. It’s parsnips. But not just any parsnip. These are Spring Dug. On the outside they’re gnarly looking, with a sprout of green at the top. On the inside, they’re sweeter than… Read More
1 April, 2021: Hot cross buns are yeasted, raisin buns historically eaten on Good Friday, so they have a special place in our Easter Box (btw if you haven’t ordered yet, you have about 7 more hours!). As our Meal Box program has grown, Chris has found some creative ways to keep up with the demand. This week our dough… Read More
7 August, 2017: Last night we tested hummus bowls at CloverKND. We’re on again tonight, 6pm – 8pm at CloverKND (Kendall Square). I’m hoping this is the first step towards the future of food at Clover. Let me explain… I realized 2 months ago that most of our customers are taking our food to go. I guess we sort of… Read More
30 March, 2021: I can’t tell you how magical it is to make this at home. For those of you too far away from Boston to order our Easter meal box, here’s the recipe for the batter that will come ready-made inside all Easter boxes. We’ll also be including roasted golden oyster mushrooms and a pecorino cream sauce that you… Read More
