I Did It!

I *hate* making phone calls, and I especially hate making phone calls to place orders.  But!  As vowed last week, I put in my order to the co-op! :D   Since the deadline was today, I called in my order–the woman on the phone was very friendly.

I ordered one Standard Share, which, for $23.00, includes the following:

  • 2 8-oz Top Sirloin Steaks
  • 4 5-oz Pork Chops
  • 2 lbs Chicken Legs and Thighs
  • 1 lb Lean Ground Beef (85/15)
  • 3 varieties Fresh Fruits
  • 5 varieties Fresh Vegetables
  • Stone Ground’s Artisan Wheat Bread
  • 16-oz Rice

Soooo…I pick up my order on Saturday, March 28th between 10:30-11:30 am.  Yay!  This is really *such* an amazing value!

    How much of the varieties of fruits and veggies do you get?

    All that for just $23? That is a great value, you would spend a lot more than that in the store for just the meat.

      I’m not sure what the weight of the produce comes to, but I’ll be sure to post an update when I bring it all home.

      I guarantee it will be plenty for my family’s needs. I’m working hard to push our fruit and vegetable intake, but we’re still not quite where we should be. Hopefully this will help!

      Have you looked at the co-op’s website? You should definitely give it a go! :)
