Consider Farm-Direct Groceries Delivered
I have to admit that I was skeptical when our downstairs neighbor raved about the FarmFreshToYou.com local grocery delivery service. Basically, they deliver a box of locally-grown fruits and vegetables to you every week, bi-weekly, or every month, straight from their farm, or nearby farms.
How is this any different from your local Whole Foods you might ask? Well, maybe it’s placebo, but I have to say that I could TASTE the freshness/crispness in the grapes, green leaf lettuce, chard, etc.
We will have to do a FarmFreshToYou, farmer’s market, and Whole Foods side-by-side comparison at some point to really know for sure. But, for now, I’d encourage you to try a service for yourself. FarmFreshToYou seems to be available only in California, but punch in your zip code on the site and see.
Will report back if we feel any differently with our second shipment!

This sounds like a CSA, which my family is part of in New York. It’s a great way to get fresh, seasonal produce, which provides you with the best nutrition!
