As most of you know my intentions is to have a full fledged organic food store. The last major section that we need to add is produce. Well we have embarked on the first foray into offering produce.

This weekend we will have a small offering of produce. We do not have coolers yet so that we cannot bring in things that require coolers. 

The items I have ordered are:

Apples, grapefruit, avocados, bananas, tomatoes, kiwis, lemons, limes, cantaloupe, watermelon, honeydew melon, papaya, pears, pineapple, carrots, cauliflower, garlic, onions, potatoes, rutabaga, acorn squash, butternut squash, spaghetti squash, turnips, mango, strawberries and yam.

Whew! I have always chosen Fair Trade Certified items where available (bananas, avocados, and kiwis). I choose items produced in Canada first then looked for items grown closer to our home – Edmonton.

I went and looked at some second hand produce display tables today and will decide what I will purchase soon. I am working on it!
