We are a non-profit, member-supported organic food co-op in the Ft. Walton Beach area. We began our co-op in the spring of 2009. Our members receive fresh organic produce bi-monthly at an affordable price. We started with 12 members and have grown to over 90 members.

Quick Reference Guide

The produce list for the following Monday is published on Thursday or Friday. Click on the button above for your pod. The top button will take you to the produce pick-up dates for each pod.

The produce list is usually accurate, but occasionally there may be a last-minute substitution due to the vendor being out of stock of a particular item.

Shared Bins

Occasionally some members find there is too much bounty in a full bin for their household, so they share with a “bin buddy”. Some members like to split everything down the middle while others prefer to take a particular item while leaving the entire amount of another item. For example, let’s say you and your bin buddy receive a pineapple and a cantaloupe. You might leave the pineapple, but keep the cantaloupe rather than cutting both in half at pick-up. Whichever option you choose, make sure you and your bin buddy have talked it over and agreed when not splitting evenly.

Organic food is produced without using most conventional pesticides; fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients or sewage sludge; bioengineering; or ionizing radiation. Before a product can be labeled
