How to save money buying fresh organic produce
Although I love to shop at Whole Foods for produce, it is just getting too expensive. A friend suggested a CSA, community sustained agriculture, where local farms sell directly to the consumer.
I gave it a try through Capay Farm’s Farm Fresh to You program. Within a week of placing the order online, organic produce delivered straight from Capay’s farm to my home. I paid $21 for a small box of 6-7 fruits and vegetables. By the pound, I’ve saved more than Whole Foods and found more variety than Trader Joe’s. You can try other CSA recommendations from the Bay Area through KQED.

Another suggestion….get organic produce delivered to your door. I’ve used both The Box (http://www.organicexpress.com/) and Planet Organics (http://www.planetorganics.com/). I’ve had good experiences with both.
