Enjoy Your Produce
We’ll choose the best in-season produce to include in each tote.
Summer Tote Program
Take the guesswork out of knowing what the best-tasting, in-season produce is each month of the summer. With over 90 years of experience growing fruits and veggies, we fill our weekly and monthly tote boxes with sweet corn and tomatoes at just the right times during the season to ensure freshly harvested quality. 97% of past program participants tell us the tote boxes have high-quality produce. Sourcing directly from our fields and farmers allows us to have some of the freshest fruits and veggies around. Be surprised every tote with a great new selection of items to try.
Recipes for Your Veggies
Not sure what to make with beets or kale that your kids will actually eat? Our staff provide you with a new recipe in your email each week to go along with the produce in your tote.
