RealFoodSA is a buying club for families in San Antonio and surrounding areas. They conduct bulk/co-op style product purchases to attain better pricing. They seek to purchase the following:
- organically grown produce
- grass-fed meats
- pastured eggs and poultry
- wild-caught seafood
- grass-fed raw dairy
- unrefined oils & sweeteners
- whole grains and legumes
- raw nuts and seeds
- fermented foods
- traditional whole foods
- organic herbs and spices
- local & seasonal products
- Member produced goods
How It Works:
"Buying Opps" are organized through their Yahoo Group by volunteer coordinators. They invite others to purchase to qualify for discounts in price & shipping. There is a fee of $2-$5 per order, per customer to cover labor, supplies, or travel.
NOTE: Membership is free BUT this will likely change due to the club's fast growth and strenuous management demands. Given the value, accessibility to such products and savings, a membership fee is WORTH IT and I highly recommend joining.
These are some of the products for which Buying Opps are coordinated.
