Fruit & Vege Co-Op
The St Albans Fruit & Vege Co-Op aims to give people access to healthy, fresh food at a fair price and involve people in building their community. This is run by the Community Focus Trust based in St Albans.
Each week you will receive a selection of fresh produce in two bags, with a different variety most weeks. All produce is seasonal and fresh. The average saving per week if brought from a mainstream supermarket is around $15.00, so you could save on average $60 per month.
