Buying Clubs
People create/join buying clubs for a variety of reasons: discounted food, convenience, access to food they couldn't otherwise find, and to build community through food. The following buying clubs help people conveniently access healthy and delicious locally grown food even in the winter months when it's less available. To start a buying club in your neighborhood, contact: info@farmtocity.org.
