It's official, my mom and I are members of Flagler Organics

I am so excited that my mom and I have finally signed up for a membership with Flagler Organics. Each week I will pick up a basket with a variety of vegetables and fruits, all organic and from local farmers (within the state). If you have not looked into a buyers club or co-op in your area you really should. Here's how Flagler Organics works:

Depending on the season, each share will have a mixture of 6 or 8 vegetables and 5 or 6 fruits.

They have 3 types of memberships.
  1. Full Share Basket
  2. A share is enough food for 4 people who eat fruits and vegetables as a mainstay in their diet.
  3. Half Share Basket
  4. A half share is enough food for 2 people who eat fruits and vegetables as a mainstay in their diet.
  5. Singles Share Basket
  6. Is a little different. A Singles Share Basket has 3 to 4 vegetables and 2 to 3 fruits.
Every Tuesday your share of food will be distributed into a basket.  As a member, you pick up your basket each week and exchange the basket for another the following week. That’s it!  Share and enjoy your food with your family.

If you live in the Flagler/Volusia county area check them out at www.flaglerorganics.com
