We personally deliver every week from 9am–6pm across Metro Vancouver. Delivery is no-contact — meals are left at your front door, building entrance, or lobby. Your meals are packed in insulated bags with ice packs to keep everything fresh.

No, delivery is no-contact and meals will be left at your front door or lobby. Just make sure there's a safe spot for us to leave your bag.
Please leave your empty insulated bags and ice packs from the previous week at your door or lobby so your driver can swap them when dropping off your new delivery. Reusable bags, and ice packs must be returned. Failure to arrange return after cancellation may result in invoicing for replacement costs.

ordering and subscription

Yes, a meal plan subscription is required to order. There is a 3 week minimum when you subscribe.
Yes you can pause, skip, or cancel at any time through your customer portal or by emailing us, as long as your request is received at least 5 days before your next delivery date. Please reach out directly at info@gaiakitchen.ca and we'll take care of it.
Our weekly meal prep menu is set each week and cannot be modified. If you have specific dietary needs, please review the menu before ordering to ensure it works for you.
Orders close on Thursday each week. You'll receive the upcoming menu early in the week so you have time to review before the cutoff.
Unfortunately, our system does not allow you to swap plans directly in the account portal yet (we're working on making that smoother).
For one time & occasional swaps: Email us at info@gaiakitchen.ca with the plan you would like to temporarily switch to, and we will immediately manually process a partial refund for the price difference back to your card.
For permanent plan changes: Unfortunately, you will need to cancel your subscription and re-subscribe to your preferred plan.

food and packaging

We use 36oz containers made from reclaimed and rapidly renewable sugarcane fibres, lined with compostable PLA plastics, making the base 100% compostable. To keep containers sealed tight, lids are still plastic but can be recycled. Soups are sent in microwaveable plastic containers, and extra side sauces come in glass jars.
We prioritize local, seasonal, and organic ingredients wherever possible. Proteins are humanely raised, grass-fed, pasture-raised, and non-GMO when available.
Our weekly meal prep menu is set each week and cannot be modified. If you have specific dietary needs, please review the menu before ordering to ensure it works for you.
We are able to accommodate some common dietary preferences through our menu options, however we are unable to accommodate serious or life-threatening allergies and restrictions. Please review the menu carefully each week and reach out before ordering if you have any concerns.
Most meals keep for 4–5 days in the fridge. Soups and stews can also be frozen for up to a month
