Bountiful Baskets has been a huge blessing to our family. Every other week, we pick up a basket of fresh produce (half fruit/half veggies), and incorporate them into our diet at home. Since you do not get to choose what produce you'll be getting, it has forced our family to try some stuff we probably never would have tried otherwise. Here's a picture of what we got this week...for $15.00...
2 bags of carrots
1 celery bunch
1 bunch broccoli
9 heads of romaine lettuce
13 mini cucumbers
3 bags radishes
5 mangoes
1 pint strawberries
6 oranges
9 apples
6 bananas
In addition to produce, the co-op also provides other offerings as well. These are constantly changing, but examples often include: loaves of bread, extra produce, chips, cakes, and cookies. This week, we added on a Tropical Pack for $10.50...
1 pineapple
1 coconut
1 starfruit
3 mangoes
2 limes
2 lemons
1 bag mint leaves
2 vanilla beans
All of that for a whopping $25.50!
Bountiful Baskets operates in several states, with many pick up locations: AZ, CO, ID, MT, NV, OK, OR, TX, UT, WA, WY.
