Membership
We are preparing the way to a healthier lifestyle by making fresh, local, organic, or sustainably-grown bags of fruits and vegetables available.
Save money on groceries, connect with community and support the development of Ohio’s local food system.
You don't have to be a member to purchase a bag but you'll save money in the long run by doing so. Plus, you're helping us create a "bricks and mortar" store where you'll be able to shop each day and support our own community!
