Are there membership fees?
There are no membership fees at this time. Our system allows our customers to place a pre-order of the items they want. You can then pick up your order at a designated time and place.
Will I have to buy vegetables I don't want?
With this on-line ordering service, you can order only the items that you want, and the quantity that you can use.
How do I order?
Create your own account on the system. You’ll need to remember your log-in information, including password. If you forget it, just create a new account, as we don’t have a way to find it for you. Then place an order. You should receive a confirmation email from the system once your order is placed correctly.
When do I pay?
You can pre-pay, or pay when you pick up your order. We accept cash or checks but not credit cards.
When and Where do I pick up my order?
We are going to try a new system this year, and have your items for you from 5 to 6 p.m. on Thursday evenings. The pick-up location will be the patio on the east side People’s Grocery at the corner of 17th and Ft. Riley Blvd.
Why Support Locally Grown?
Enhance your local economy: By purchasing produce and other items from local growers you are providing stability to your local economy through the support of local businesses.
Save natural resources: Buying locally makes you an invaluable link in the process of saving resources such as fossil fuels and packaging materials. Also, we are right here in your community so the expense of transportation and delivery is kept to a minimum.
Provide learning opportunities: Locally Grown supporters provide member growers the means to help educate our community about the importance of sustainable agriculture.
Supporting a way of life: The number of small farms in the United States has decreased dramatically in the last decade. Please help us preserve an honest and worthy means of making a living.
We believe that small, diverse, family-owned farms contribute to society’s overall health.
Are other products besides vegetables available?
We also sell eggs, tabouli, hummus and baklava. At certain times, we will have lamb meat available too.
