What’s in a Basket? 
A variety of fresh produce straight from the Farmers Market. There are usually 10-12 items. 3-5 fruits, and 5-7 vegetables. I try to stick to produce that is commonly used and that generally everyone enjoys. I keep some items the same and vary others. Click here to see some of our previous basket contents.
How Does it Work?
I order all the produce the day before you get your basket based on the number of people participating. The next morning, I pick up all the produce at the State Farmers Market and bring it back to our warehouse, where it is sorted into individual baskets.
Members get their produce in one of our durable, colorful baskets. The next time they come, they bring back their empty basket and exchange it for a full one.
First-time Tryers receive their produce in a box.
Can I choose what I want in my Basket?
Not really. I welcome feedback, and it definitely influences what I purchase for the baskets. If you want something specific, let me know, and I may be able to make a Special Order for you.
Where Does the Produce Come From?
Everywhere. Much of it is from the southeast, but some is from all over the world. I buy from Georgia farmers as much as I can and still bring you the best value. We do special orders for items that are particularly in season, keep an eye on our special order page each week.
Is it Organic?
Our Classics baskets contain conventionally grown produce.
Is the Membership Fee Refundable?
No. However, I will offer a buyer’s remorse refund within a week or two of joining, if you bring back the basket.

What if something in my basket is not good?
I work very hard to ensure that everything in your basket is fresh and high quality, but even so, it’s a natural product and I’m human, and sometimes that happens. I am happy to offer you a replacement at your next pick up, if you let me know that day. I encourage you to look through your basket at pick up so we can take care of it right then.
What does "Dirty Dozen" Organic mean?
To increase the variety and value of the Organic baskets, we make it with the same variety of items as in the Classic baskets. Since not all of those items are available organically, we focus on the "Dirty Dozen" list and ensure that those items are always certified organic. We make the same small margin on the Organic baskets as on our Classic baskets. Organic food is always at least double the cost of conventionally grown food, but is more frequently triple and quadruple the cost. Not all organics are created equal—many foods have such low levels of pesticides that buying organic just isn’t worth it.
The Environmental Working Group (EWG) calculated that you can reduce your pesticide exposure nearly 80 percent simply by choosing organic for the 12 fruits and vegetables shown in their tests to contain the highest levels of pesticides. They call them "The Dirty Dozen," and (starting with the worst) they are celery, peaches, strawberries, apples, pears, nectarines, sweet bell peppers, spinach, kale/collard greens, cherries, potatoes and grapes (imported). And you can feel good about the following 15 conventionally grown fruits and vegetables that the EWG dubbed "The Clean Fifteen," because they were shown to have little pesticide residue: onions, avocado, sweet corn, pineapples, mango, sweet peas, asparagus, kiwi fruit, cabbage, eggplant, cantaloupe (domestic), watermelon, grapefruit, sweet potatoes and honeydew melon. The items not on either list are generally conventionally grown, but we get them organic if we can.
