Mixed Fruit & Veggie

Co-op Box

 
  Delicious Organics was founded on the principle of making organic foods available and affordable.  You get to choose exactly how much and what items you want.  We keep costs down and margins low.  We offer exceptional service and amazing quality delivered right to your door!  However, we understand that each of us, especially at one point or another in our lives, want an even better value and are willing to sacrifice exact amounts of exactly what we want for quality, fresh, organic produce at a tremendous savings.  Plus, some of us enjoy a surprise box as a way to try new foods!  Delicious Organics South Florida CoopBox is founded upon this important concept.  We give back to our community.  We offer an even greater value on organic fruits and vegetables with CoopBoxes!
  • $50 - $70 retail value!
  • 15 - 35 pounds!
  • Great selection of gorgeous produce!
  • Balanced mix of Fruits (4 - 10 different fruits) and Vegetables (7 - 15) and sometimes Herbs (1 - 3) too!
  • ONLY organic produce is in the coop box.
  • Wholesale - Costs well below retail - (20%-40% below!)
  • NO start up fees!
  • NO dues or membership fees!
  • NO long-term commitments!
  • NO prepayment!
  • NO waiting lists!
  • NO time commitment necessary!
  • NO excuse not to offer your family the best organic food!
  • REAL value - compare the value of our box with other coops, buying clubs, farmer's markets, and grocery stores.  When we've compared even the regular cost of our fruits and vegetables, we've always been quite competitive and priced well below retail, making organics an affordable option for everyone!
  • Pick up option or delivery available
  • Easy to pay with check, cash (or even credit card)!
  • Reasonable amounts included (we don't give you one tiny squash, for example, or only one tiny fruit.  We know families need to eat so we'll always include a good amount of each item!  We look at how our regular customers order and create a box much like you would shop in a store.)  But if you need even more of something or want to be sure to get something in particular, you can easily order that by itself.  Since the box of goodies is a surprise, simply order what you want and request that we not add it if it's included in the box.
  • Easy order online before you pick up or get delivery.  Choose weekly or bi-weekly option or just order each week you want a box!  Order when you want.
  • Easy to add on dairy, fish, chicken, eggs, dry goods, etc. when you order too - you can order non-produce items you may want and we'll pack those up for you making it one-stop shopping for all your grocery needs!  With many other groups, you get a box and then still have to run to the grocery store, with us, you can get it all at a great price and save time too!
  • Recipes, menu ideas, storage and cooking tips!  Scared of a new fruit or vegetable?  Find out all about how to store it, ripen it, open it and use it on our web site!
  • Conveniently located off the highway!  Easy off and back onto the highway!
  • The best quality - you will notice that our produce lasts longer in your refrigerator (but it's so delicious that it might not last too long because it will get eaten before it ever goes bad!)
    • super fresh - days before it was still growing in the ground!
    • your produce is kept at optimal temperatures until you pick up!  Unlike other coops, we do not keep your food outside or just in an air conditioned room until you can come to get it.  We pack it and keep it in our coolers to keep everything fresh until you pick up or get it delivered to your door!
    • NO hands prodding, poking, sniffing, smelling, squeezing or dropping your produce!  No one going through the box first to take the biggest one.  The only people that will ever touched your fruits and veggies are the farmers and us packing it up for you!
  • We are not all greens like some boxes and we are not all potatoes and onions like others, we are a great mix of fresh organic fruits and vegetables to help you (and your family or friends - we have some people who share their coop box with a roommate and still others who find it's enough food and fresh enough that they only need to get it every other week - the option is yours so no matter whether you are single, a couple, or a family, you can) eat healthy delicious organic foods every day!

  • a better value!

 

Many of our customers love the ready-made surprise value-packed co-op boxes we offer and order them for delivery or pick-up, usually with other items they also want to get.  Most prefer to pick and choose from the huge selection of produce and grocery items since our prices are always reasonable - that way they get exactly how much of each specific item they want at a fair price.  Several who order with us also belong to co-ops or buying clubs and supplement additional food and produce with our service.  Still others are forming their own co-ops and buying clubs to have more control over the items in their box and value of their purchase.

Want to create your own buying club or coop? 

A coop or buying club is a group of people that pool their resources to buy together at a discount and share the savings amongst the members who also share in the work involved in the association.  The value is shared equally and records of the organization are available for all members.  Members may view bills, charges, and splits; the financial records are open to members and the value of each box and order can be confirmed through receipts.  As a member, you can ask to view the wholesale receipts so that you can calculate the value of your own purchase and box.  Typically members get a payout each year of the cost savings from the group.  You can research more about this online.  In addition, members are asked what they want to order and all members must agree on what it being purchased so that cases can be ordered at wholesale. 

We offer a huge selection of organic produce as well as other grocery items from which to choose.  You have lots of options to make it easy for you to get started! 

1.  Order our ready-made value packed coop box(es) (and anything else you want) already packed up for just you or pre-made for each member.  We offer a variety of boxes to meet your needs.

2.  Create your own box for your members!  Simply order by the case any items you want (preorder fruits and vegetables by the case at least 3 days in advance and all other items must be ordered at least a week in advance and no later than Wednesday for the following week) and we will discount 10% off our already discounted prices!  You buy it at wholesale and then you split up exactly what you want amongst your members.

3.  Don't want to create it yourself but still want the 10% case discount?  You tell us how many members you have and how much you want to spend and we'll send surprise cases that you can split up so you don't need to think about what to order.

You have the option of picking up your boxes or having them delivered.

And your members can order whatever else they might want on an individual basis for delivery to the same location too and share the delivery fee!  Many families are ordering cases of things everyone wants to lower the cost to wholesale of those items used most, while each individual family adds on items personally that the group might not want.

And then the other option is to just do what most of our customers do which is to pick and choose exactly what you want (especially since we have such a huge selection and our regular prices are already about 20% under retail!) for delivery or pick up. 

Lots of choices for super fresh quality and amazing value made easy!

Hi Annie,
 
Thank you for an outstanding coop box today.  A wonderful variety of luscious fresh produce.  Can hardly wait to dig in!
 
All the best, Louise

The box has been fantastic- made stuffed mushrooms last night, and we're considering using the purple cauliflower for a broccoli-salad type recipe. Awesome stuff!

This weeks co-op package was awesome!!  There was plenty to prepare delicious meals with. Once again, thank you for all you do for us in providing fresh, organic food at a low cost!

One very appreciative customer, Sandi

My coop box (which is now in the frig along with my turkey bird) looks fresh and wonderful. 

-------------------------------

I went by today ( bright pink shirt) to pick up my order, not knowing that my Co-op order would be given to me (too). This is the first time I ordered the Co-op Box and I was really excited about it.  Your two helpers placed my groceries in the back seat of my car and I did not get a chance to check it.  I had a 40 min drive home and the whole way I could smell the sweetness of the fruits and vegetables from the back seat.  When I got home, I literally laughed out loud in excitement. (I was alone at home too.)  The vegetables and fruits were so delicious smelling and looking that my mouth was watering.  What a wonderful selection. Thank you so much.  I will now order from the Co-op regularly.  And thank you for those great bruised bananas you threw in.  My children will love the banana bread I will make from them.

Wow!  What a great selection in the co-op box this week!  My favorite is unloading the box at home and putting everything in the refrigerator.  It fills up the whole frig and looks so yummy.   Then I thumb thru the recipes and kind of loosely plan my meals for the week.  I like that you put the herbs together in one bunch.  Makes it easier to find them in the refrigerator.  Last week I made from your recipes grilled romaine (had to improvise in the pan but it was good) and black beans with rice and kale.  Will also be making the lentil risotto.  From this week's recipe collection am dying to try the radish slaw. 
All the best, Louise

-------------------------------

Dear Annie et al,
The produce in the co-op box is soooooooo fresh and tastes so good.  I appreciate what you guys went thru (from Hurricane Wilma, October, 2005) and all the work it took (spoiled produce/cleanup, etc.) to get Delicious Organics back up and running again.  Thanks guys.  You're the best.

Hi Annie, 

I picked up the coop box on Friday and I was very surprised.  I was afraid I would get a bunch of stuff I wasn’t familiar with, but instead there was a great balance of things I use all the time and just enough new items that I could try something new without being overwhelmed.  I was, as always, impressed by the incredible quality of the produce.  Thank you so much for offering this option!
Thanks, April

-------------------------------

I love the recipes - I find them very helpful!  They are easy, so good, and always make it less scary to try something new.

ORDER CO-OP BOX NOW

About Delicious Organics Co-op:
A coop or buying club is technically a group of people pulling together buying power for better prices and working together to offset costs.  Delicious Organics CoopBoxes harness the power of Delicious Organics, Inc. and gets you an unbelievably great value with the help of you preordering your box and pitching in with a little time by telling friends about us.  We get our produce from Delicious Organics, Inc (with prices already under retail) and discount it even further for our coop members.

Order a box without any commitment.  You can either order it each week as you need it, or if you want to simplify your life and you know you want the box regularly, sign up for the weekly or bi-weekly (every other week) option. 

We walk the walk and we talk the talk.  We return crates to farms.  We reuse boxes for packaging and shipping.  We reuse any peanuts and shipping material that we get from our purchases and shipments to us.  We reuse ice packs, cold pack containers (Styrofoam cooler boxes, for example) in which we get items shipped to us.  We use recycled paper.  We recycle our paper.  We recycle or reuse cardboard boxes (and we get a lot of those with all our shipments to us!).  We search out companies that care about our environment.  Whenever possible, we buy in bulk to save packaging costs and we repackage the items with the least negative environmentally impactful way possible - for example, brown bags, or biodegradable and compostable "plastics" made from corn.  We use gloves when repackaging items (even packaging mushrooms or green beans, for example) so there are no grubby hands over your food!  We give back to our community by offering Coop Boxes, offer people who work for us a discount on all items, and donating extras.

We buy from reputable sources and farms that are certified organic.  We focus our support on local organic farmers.  Quality, however, is of utmost importance to us.  We support organic farmers that offer the best fruits and vegetables throughout the United States and abroad including Israel, New Zealand and elsewhere.  We are confident in our sources and research companies in great detail.  We purchase meats, fish, and non-food items that we research and find are environmentally safe and healthful for our families.  We make sure any new item passes the taste test or the test to make sure it does what it says (cleaning products, for example) and will only carry the items that meet our strict standards.  We choose only the best!

A coop is a group of people who buy and work together.  We ask that one person from each family work just one hour every six months.  You can help pack the boxes, answer phones, clean up, or help greet other members.  For safety reasons, however, we cannot have small children running around our warehouse, nor can we have babies in the warehouse space.  We know that we are all very busy, so if you are unable to offer two hours a year, we ask that you help in other ways.  Since we know today's families are extremely busy and time is limited, we will consider that you pitched in your fair share by bringing in at least one new member to our group each year.  We can include flyers for you to pass around and an email letter to send out to invite other concerned families to become part of our coop.  You've done your part by making an effort to get the word out and we thank you!  We want to make this coop work for all of us!

 
     
  Not so fine print:
  • no substitutions or customization on coop boxes, however, you can, in effect, customize it by purchasing additional items.
  • if you are outside our local delivery area and you order a box for pick up, please remember to pick it up on the day you choose before we close.  We pack each box the day of your delivery or pick up and unless you canceled it at least two days in advance, it will be waiting for you.  If you order it but fail to call or pick it up, you will still be responsible for the purchase and we will donate it to another family, homeless shelter, or other association that can use it.
  • coop boxes are a mix of delicious fresh fruits and vegetables and we stand by the quality.  You will be very pleased.  If something is not good, let us know upon receipt so that we can correct that for you. 
  • since this is such a discounted box and is priced at wholesale, we would prefer payment by check or cash, however, we understand that some people choose coop boxes for budgetary reasons and need to pay on credit card so we do also accept credit cards in order to best accommodate you.
  • each item in your box is usually not packed in plastic bags; instead they are neatly placed in the box as they come (i.e. blueberries in their own container, grapes come in their bag, but we won't bag the lettuce or plums or anything that doesn't come prepackaged.  We actually prefer not to package for environmental reasons since those bags fill landfills for years.
  • coop boxes must be preordered by the order deadline
 
  Not convenient enough for you?  We are a complete organic grocery delivery service in south Florida.  We offer a complete selection of foods and grocery items and packaged boxes of produce.  We serve Miami - Dade and Broward counties.  If you are located outside of these areas including Boca Raton, West Palm Beach, or Delray, we'll help you start up your own coop!  We'll deliver the food in boxes for you to split up with your members or we'll split up the boxes and deliver it to you.  There is a charge (we can either charge a little more or include a little less food in your box) for us to split it up at our shop.  We will work with you to create a place for you to get the freshest organic produce (and other grocery items) to you, your friends, family and neighbors.

Everyone can have delicious organics every day!
