Boxes will include approximately five pounds of dry ingredients (e.g., whole grains, legumes, flour), which translates into about 40 servings of food for a family of four per month. Each ingredient box will include culturally relevant recipes and, six times out of the twelve boxes, include a culturally relevant book for the family's child/children.
