I can get local organics around here (Iowa) in the summer time, but when it comes to getting things in the winter my choices are limited to either buying things at the whole foods store in Ames (where the selection of produce isn't always the best) or going completely to online shopping for my veggies and fruits. I don't necessarily do organic meats, but I do prefer using organic vegetables and fruits in my cooking due to taste. I was wondering if anyone here has used Diamond Organics or if anyone would have any other suggestions as to alternate routes for organic produce.
One thing I'm looking into for next summer is actually buying a share in an organic farm. The going rate is about 200 dollars for the entire summer and you get a nice selection of fresh veggies and fruits every week...you just have to drive to get them. There's a farm on the Iowa State campus that sells the produce every year and it's good stuff.
