For the past year (off and on) we've been getting fresh produce from a coop type group called Bountiful Baskets. They buy wholesale direct from farmers and then deliver them to various drop off points in the area. We go online to reserve our basket and pick them up nearby at 7am on Saturdays. It used to be 9am - boo for the change! The regular baskets cost $15 and there are add ons each week. For example, this week we could have gotten 38 lbs of bartlett pears for an extra $25 or 5 loaves of organic whole wheat bread for an extra $15.
Today, in our regular basket, we got:
1 head of lettuce
6 bananas
1 box of strawberries
4 ears of corn
5 stalks of broccoli
4 nectarines
2 leeks
4 oranges
14 yellow potatoes
9 plums
