I was driving around one of the Queen Creek / Pinal County neighborhoods and noticed some activity near a park. There were baskets lined up in the grass and people were coming in and picking up the baskets and putting them in their car.
I was curious about what was going on and spoke with someone who appeared to be in charge (the clipboard was the give-away). The event was a distribution from a local food co-op called Bountiful Baskets.
You can join the co-op and order fresh produce, breads and whatever is the current fresh offering of the week. It costs about $15 for a basket and you get about $50 worth of groceries. That would be what you would pay at the grocery store.
I love the concept and may have to try this myself. If you want more information please go to their website Bountiful Baskets Co-op .
