Our Farms
We pride ourselves in ordering produce from the best organic farms we can find, and every single piece of produce we have is 100% USDA Certified Organic. When the growing season is on, we strive to bring you as much local produce as we can.
During the colder parts of the year when the leaves have fallen and the air is chilly, we are still able to bring you organic produce that comes mostly from our friends in California. We have searched high and low, but it's pretty hard to find tropical fruit like Bananas and Pineapples growing anywhere around here, so for some of our more exotic produce, we use farms out of the country that meet the same rigourous standards and are USDA Organic Certified.
It is very important to know where our food comes, so we invite you to meet some of our farmers:
