Got our first organic produce delivery on Tuesday!

[FrugalWitch]

Sorry so late reporting in, haven't felt too great the past few days. We received our first delivery from GrowAlabama on Tuesday and all I can say is yyuuuummmyy!!!! The whole family was extremely impressed with the quality and taste. The box capacity was 1 1/9 bushel and was approx. 3/4 full. We got 8 different veggies, 1 fruit and had bought in addition 2 dozen eggs, 1 chicken and 2 lbs Amish butter.

Everything is fresh, organic, grown in AL, and all animals are free-range grass fed. I haven't tasted chicken like that since my Ninny quit raising chickens when I was a kid.

We've already changed from bi-weekly deliveries to weekly, it was just that delicious! This is what we will be getting in the future:

1 "Gold" box of produce containing from 8-12 different veggies plus 1 fruit weekly

1 dozen eggs weekly

2 chickens per month

2 orders (2lb each) Amish butter per month

We get home delivery and will be paying $189.63 per month. For us the increased cost is more than worth the all the taste, health and convenience benefits.

How neat! Since I went organic and especially with meats my family has noticed a big difference and they like the food better!! Sounds like you got some great stuff!!

How do you go about doing something like that?

Hey mickee (MTV memories there), I found out about it at localharvest.org.
They provide a state-by-state listing.
