Picturesque and incredibly historic, Greece plays an integral part in both the history of the world and the history of food. Greek food is healthy and nourishing, and many of its flavors are rooted in the country’s terrain, which is made up of rocky cliffs along the Mediterranean with ancient olive trees, raw honey, and fresh herbs (not to mention, feta)! With such a bright and healthful cuisine, let our Greece Box transport you to this beautiful place!
