Lakewood Organic Co-op
The Lakewood Advocate recently wrote about the new Lakewood Organic Co-0p, which is organized by Lakewood Heights neighbor, Rachel Winner. Locally-grown produce – broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, cucumbers, garlic, potatoes, tomatoes, avocados, apples, oranges, pears, lemons and bananas (to name a few) – is available, by subscription, through the Lakewood Organic Co-op.
In the Lakewood Advocate article, Rachel Winner said, “It really is an amazing opportunity for families to save money on produce and feel good that they are supporting local farmers, without the hassle of shopping. It is convenient for busy people, because everything is already there, ready to go.”
For more information, or to join the Lakewood Organic Co-op, send an e-mail to monica@yourhealthsource.org or rachel_sw@sbcglobal.net. Article Link
