The http://www.producecoop.com/ site is now open for orders.


We are doing freggie a little different this week we are not importing any tropicals so we will focus all of produce items on locally grown organic only ( sorry no citrus this week either, next time citrus!) . So the freggies will have more apples, raspberries, cantaloupes, watermelons, ect...


Also at the request of some we are adding another box (with one more coming soon) that we are calling and Organic Try Something New box - that will have an assortment of uncommonly seen items - this week it will have purple peppers, gold tomatoes, long island cheese squash, orange spaghetti squash, breakfast radishes, white beets, orange eggplants, and yellow watermelon to name a few items it's priced at 20.00 for the box.
