Food is the foundation of health and happiness. Food is an expression of love and is to be enjoyed. When you eat real food, prepared with care, you are connected to your body, the ones you share it with, and to the world around you. It’s very simple, yet very true. 

Goodness Cooks weekly menus follow a plant-focused paleo template that shift seasonally and include nourishing foods, such as bone stocks and easy-to-digest starches. Our dishes are full of flavor and nutrients from herbs, spices, nuts, seeds and healthy fats and are always free of dairy, gluten, and refined sugar. This approach to food is straight forward, delicious, and supports a healthy lifetsyle.

Every ingredient is carefully sourced, from our olive oil and salt to the vegetables and meat. We’re transparent about what ingredients are organic and local so that you can feel clear about what you’re putting into your body. We use only whole, real foods and cook in small batches to ensure quality and freshness.

The appearance of food is important to its enjoyment, so we take pride in how we package our food. We also reduce plastic and paper waste every place we can. And for those of you that are weary of the plastic containers in take-home food, you can become a member of our Eco Program and receive your order in reusable glass jars.

Goodness Cooks has been growing and evolving since late 2019. Our crew also has strong ties in Carrboro and Chapel Hill and hail from various regions of North Carolina. We value community and want to strengthen our bonds with customers, farmers and local businesses through providing a service with integrity. You can feel good knowing that you’re supporting the local food system and the local economy when you enjoy our food.

Pick-ups on Wednesdays are also like a casual community meet-and-greet. It’s the highlight of the cook week and we enjoy connecting as we pack-up your order. Come and see us if you can!
