You could try researching CSAs in your area. There are a few near me that sell farm shares with weekly pickup of seasonal veggies during harvest season. I’m in northern California, and our rate is under $20 per week after we split it with another couple. We usually receive more veggies than we would buy during a weekly grocery store trip, plus our farm let’s everyone pick fresh bouquets each pickup as a nice bonus.
Yup, stands for community supported agriculture. They’re often called co-ops or farm shares, but I think CSA is the industry term that you’ll have most luck with when searching around online.
This is great. Is there something similar for finding local farms regardless of race?

I’d love to learn more about the ones in NorCal. I’m in the peninsula.
Depending on your location, try heading to your local “ethnic” neighborhood produce shops and price check those.
Farm co-ops I think focus on local farms.
