we do juices/smoothies daily, but I havent found organic produce in bulk. We do the Gainesville/Tampa trip per month for their whole foods/trader joe's. Gainesville is closer but I prefer Tampa. More things to do/see in Tampa.
hope to see you around.
cheers!

All fruits are local. Oregon? I expect if you read the shipping boxes, you will find Apples and Pears from Oregon or New York. Oranges, I think Florida oranges and grapefruits are cheaper in New York than in Florida. Blueberries-I am growing them. They are not the same varieties as up north. The organic, acidic soil they need? We have sandy, clay with a PH between 7-8. The birds? Around here they have no class they do not even wait for them to ripen to pick the bushes clean of fruit.
