Eating healthy - bountiful basket

So we are close to being finished with our first bountiful basket haul from the Saturday before last! I'm so happy with my bountiful basket because it motivates me to find recipes for the goodies we've received!

I love hearing about what others did with their veggies and fruits.

My first Bountiful Baskets!

I heard about bountiful baskets from my friend Brandi and I'm so excited to share!

Their website is www.bountifulbaskets.org. It's a co-op that's volunteered ran which focuses on attaining produce (fruits/vegetables) as close to local as possible thus making the carbon footprint eco-friendly in comparison to those produce we get in our grocery stores. You don't know know what produce you will be receiving but it's usually what's currently in season.

For a first timer, you add $4.50 ($3 for first timer and $1.50 processing fee) on top of the regular price of $15. After your first basket, you pay $16.50 and you pay for whichever week's basket you want. The website has schedules and locations for pickup in the midwest part of the country.
