Good Karma Organics

Good Karma Organics was born out of necessity. As a mother of two young children, I want to provide the very best for them. I found myself driving 40 minutes to my nearest Natural- Organic store. While there i sometimes notice how some of the produce was not as fresh as I would like it to be and mostly how costly it was. On the days I went to my nearest Natural-Organic store most of my day would be waisted. Then I did some research and found that by forming an organic buying club, I and other mothers like me, who want to provide their family with the freshest highest quality produce. could just do that, with out the long drive and the high cost of the produce. After much research and hard work, I started Good Karma Organics. We have a group in the Redland/Homestead area. Every other Friday we have a delish delivery of Amazing, Fresh, Organic produce delivered right to my home. After all the produce is packed everyones who has paid for their share comes and picks it up.

Good Karma Organics is committed to providing the Community with the highest quality, local organic produce, at below retail price. All the produce comes from Trusted, certified local organic farms.

Each member receives between 2o-35 LBS. of fresh certified organic Fruits and Vegetables. The items Vary according to season, But below you will find an example of a box we received this past Friday.

Half Share. Pink Lady Apples: Cara Cara Oranges (Blood Oranges) : 1 Lbs of Strawberries: Blue Berries; Green Cabbage; Broccoli: Tomatoes: Sweet Potatoes: Kobacha Squash: and Snap Peas.

My husband does most of the cooking in our home, so it's awesome to see him planning our meals around the vegetables we have in our box. For example tonight we had the Cabbage with Peppers, Shallots, lightly steamed, with Gage free chicken. It was delish, and the kids also had Cabbage, I love to see my kids eat healthy and also talk about the goodness this delicious vegetables dofor our body. I think we are the best example for our kids when it comes to eating, by them seen us eat in a healthy way, they follow.

If anyone is interested in Joining our Group please pass along the information.

Co-Op

I am so happy to say I have started a Co-op in our neighborhood. So far we have had a few deliveries, due to the Holidays and what not. This week we will be working on our Valentines day Box. I am very excited since I do hope to donate some of the extras to our local soup kitchen in the area. most of you know my contact information for people you may think are interested in Joining our group.

Our deliveries are done twice a month on Friday. Pick up times are after 3:00 P.M. that is when the kids get out of school. Most of our members are moms from the school or friends from the surrounding Fire Dept. I hope we can grow into other areas, but for now I am happy to start here in Homestead/Redlands area.

Recipes are sent out via email, to help you make dinner or lunch. We include a wide variety of Certified Fruits and Veggies. We try to buy from our local Farmers and then we buy from all over the surrounding areas. By buying Local Organic we help our Environment and the local organic farmers. It's better for us, better for everyone.
