Yesterday's Basket

Wow! Didn't we have an awesome basket yesterday?! The blackberries were an extra add-on the day of delivery for way super cheap. Hope you all enjoy the yummy variety of fresh produce of a huge basket!

As for a couple of matters of business:

Let us know if you have any friends or people you might know that would like to participate in the co-op. As soon as we have 36 participants, we will open up the co-op for that many baskets.

Also, for those of you who order bread... we are working out some of the kinks that we have run across in the bread department. Right now, as some of you may know, we have had some issues with delivery timeliness and also availability of bread anticipated and what actually gets delivered.  We will let you know what we decide to do with this from here on out. Let us know if you have any feedback as we are in the decision making process of continuing with this portion of the co-op.

Next basket

Ladies!!!!  I have some great news (well I think it is great.)  This week we are going to be able to get 1 lb. strawberries, cantaloupes, and pineapples for 0.99 cents EACH.  Awesome price for strawberries, as you know.  When we have a great price on a produce item, I will let you know in case you want to order EXTRA for your OWN basket.  Either leave me a comment or send an email and let us know if you want EXTRA of any of those 3 items.  Please vote on the basket selection. The poll will close on Sunday night.  Also IF raspberries aren't too pricey we MAY be able to get those for this next basket. Fingers crossed.

HAPPY EASTER!!!

4-13-11 Basket

Here is what we will be getting in our baskets:

Gold apples

Gala apples

Pears

Bananas

Avocado

Red Grapes

Oranges

Yellow Squash

Zucchini

Cucumbers

Cauliflower

Romaine Lettuce

I would have loved to have got tomatoes and Red raspberries but they are just too expensive.  He said that the price of berries keep going up, by the week. See you all tomorrow.

Basket 3/30

This post is a little on the late side.  From now on I will be posting what we are going to be getting in our baskets the day before co-op.  That way you can plan your shopping or meals for the rest of the week :-)  I think our first co-op went really well.  We had 4 great helpers that help us sort the basket and they got to take home a couple of extra items :-) Reminder....IF you are one of the 4 helpers, then you get any extra produce.

In our first basket we got: Bell Peppers, Gold Delicious, Fuji apples, oranges, broccoli, green leaf lettuce, onions, bananas, grapefruit, strawberries, carrots, kiwi, celery, mushrooms.

Not too bad right?  I will be putting up the voting poll with in the next day for our April 13th basket.  Watch for the poll to change.

Now that we know the (approximate) delivery time, we can set up a pick-up time.  You can pick-up your basket the day of the co-op from 10:00-11:00am.  IF you can NOT pick up your basket at that time due to work or some other reason, then you can pick-up your basket from 5:00-6:00pm.  IF neither one of those times work for you then maybe you can have someone pick-up the basket for you.  There are a few ladies in the co-op that actually are going to be doing this....just make sure you give them your payment.

We have a great co-op, thanks to all of you.
