"Why Fresh Produce Pack?" You ask?
Many of us don't need 12.5 lbs of carrots at a time. Or 5.5 lbs. of broccoli at a time. Or 8 bunches of Parsley. Or 6 bundles of greens, or even salad lettuce for that matter.
Each cycle, we put a variety of items in the Produce Pack, based on value, that are an ideal addition to the vegetables and fruits that we do choose by at least the quarter case (as required on the Organically Grown Company order).
These items are always fresh produce, and most typically include these items on a rotating basis:
VEG: Avocado, sweet onion, scallion, cucumber, red pepper, lettuce (usually Romaine), broccoli, chard, kale, spinach, baby bok choy, carrots, sweet potato, parsley, cilantro, radishes, and occasionally an odd-ball item just to shake it up like Cauliflower, Celery, Radicchio.
FRUIT (More seasonal): Pears, Apples, Oranges, Lemons, Melons, Grapes, Peaches, Nectarines, Plums, Grapefruits, Kiwis.
The Produce Pack ALWAYS has more value in it than you pay for, based on wholesale cost plus shipping, and if items that arrive are in too poor of condition to distribute, we will reduce the cost of that Produce Pack to you. We absorb overages out of the Handling Fees - because it is nearly impossible to get it exactly at $39.99.
RIGHT NOW (12/11/2023 only) at the only 5% handling fee discount for this cycle, there has never been a better time to try out a Produce Pack as an add-on to your regular order, or a stand-alone item to try out the co-op.
We recommend 1 Pack for 1-2 people, 2 Packs for 2-3 people, 3 Packs for 3-5 people, and so on. 😊
Configuration choices are: Roughly 50/50 Veg/Fruit or 75/25 Veg/Fruit for those who want more veg and less fruit.
