Three Stone Hearth

I love Kitchen Doula and Three Stone Hearth for nourishing meals in the postpartum period— both of which deliver. We also tried Olive <https://olivesfmeals.com&gt; recently and it was delicious! 

We love Three Stone Hearth for delicious, healthy, and easily reheated meals! They do deliver, but pick-up is also easy from their spot near University & Sacramento.

Check out Jessie & Laurent.  They do door-to-door delivery to Berkeley and most of the Bay Area.  They have an excellent variety of entrees, and I like that they post their menus several weeks ahead.  Three Stone Hearth also does door-to-door delivery in Berkeley on Wednesday for $16.  You can also go to their storefront on University for in-person pickup.  Healthy food, made from scratch - mostly soups and stews. 

Three Stone Hearth has lovely food. It's simple and nourishing!

We have been ordering prepared meals for delivery from Three Stone Hearth in Berkeley. All very delicious and healthy, has made our life much easier! Highly recommended!

Dear Elizabeth, in a situation similar to yours, over the years I have tried many of the meal preparation companies. Some involve less prep, with more "basic" meals, and some ask you to do more prep, and you get more interesting meals, recipes you might not have tried yourself. Some are organic, others are not. There is probably something to suit you. Here's the thing. I have always stopped using them because of the waste generated by such a service. All the boxes have to be kept cold so usually there are ice packs that then go in the garbage. Most items in the box, including sauces, meat, vegetables, etc., are in plastic bags or containers, and those containers are inside bigger plastic bags. Getting rid of it all as responsible as possible is a job in and of itself.

I would like to recommend you try, if you aren't too far away, Three Stone Hearth in Berkeley on University Avenue. They make organic, local, free-range foods and put them in glass jars. You pick it up or can pay extra to have it delivered. The jars go back and are re-used. It is as healthful and as ethical as it possibly could be. Of course, you have to like their style of cooking. In the end it's not more expensive than a delivery service.  

Three stone hearth, zero waste and yum!

Potala Restaurant on San Pablo in Albany across from the "new" Sprouts is macrobiotic so not only gluten/dairy free but also vegan.  I always go there when I'm in need of a nourishing and healthy meal.  

Also, try Three-Stone Hearth on University near Sacramento in Berkeley.  It's basically high quality take-out and they carry gluten/dairy-free food as well as organic dairy and meat options   I use their stews and soups as a base for multiple meals.  Their personal body-care products are wonderful as well.

I highly recommend Three Stone Hearth for delicious, sustainably sourced and extremely nutritious food. They don't deliver but you can order online and then do an easy pick up from their kitchen on university ave. i also use GoodEggs.com and they do deliver. They have lots of ready made meals that are easy to heat up, I think you can even put stuff on your registry. 

I used Kitchen Doula after the birth of my second child. It was definitely pricey but very high quality and delicious.

I also highly recommend Three Stone Hearth. I usually pick up from them directly (on university) but I believe there is also a delivery option. We continue to buy meals from them to this day.
