It's eco-friendly so it's interesting for those who are concerned about the environment, but being "green" is also trendy and different, so this type of business can reach out to "cool" people as well. Regular home delivery of fresh produce directly from the farm is pretty common in Québec too.

There's also a visible trend towards re-adopting ideas which have been considered out of date or out of fashion. Of the top of my head, I can think of quite a few businesses re-imagining ideas like regular home delivery of fresh produce. What used to be commonplace now becomes innovative again. Good point.
