Pinnacle Farm Stand - local organic produce direct from the farmer

A good place to go for local organic produce is Phil Foster Ranches. They farm almost 300 acres of certified organic vegetables, melons and fruit on two ranches near San Juan Bautista and Hollister. Every Saturday between 8am and 1pm they open to the general public. We buy fresh, organic produce at good prices, straight from the farmer - one of the great blessings of living in our agricultural area. The farm is located about 15 minutes from Aromas at 400 Duncan Road, San Juan Bautista. Here is a link to their website with directions, what produce they are currently offering, and general info about them and their Saturday Farmstand. Bon appetit~

Making your order with Azure Standard

Ordering with Azure Standard:

Note: Unfortunately Aromas Co-op has no openings for new Azure Standard members at this time. If you would like to order with Azure Standard and use another local drop site, please use the directions below. For the locations of other local Azure Standard drop sites please visit azurestandard.com/drop-point-locator

Azure Standard has no membership fees, and you don't have to order every month if you don't want to. Members all order separately, but the delivery is made to all local drop site members at the same time and place. Drop sites need to have a monthly combined minimum order of $550.00 for delivery and no tax is ever charged. Each family needs to meet the $50.00 minimum for their personal order to avoid a $5.00 shipping fee.

Getting your order:

A pick up site (drop site) usually has delivery from Azure Standard once a month. Both Azure Standard and the drop site coordinator will contact everyone that ordered to let them know when Azure's delivery truck will be coming each time (times and dates can vary.) Everyone meets the Azure delivery truck at the delivery time and the delivery driver hands out our orders. If for some reason someone can't make it to the drop site on delivery day a friend or family member is welcome to pick up for them. If there is no one to pick up an order, it is sent back to Azure Standard with a 10% restocking fee.   

Groceries you can order:

There are a variety of natural, organic, non-gmo, vegan, gluten-free, sustainably-grown and fair trade items to choose from. We recommend checking the bargain bin and overstock sections for deals.
There are well-known brands like Amy’s & Newman’s Own, along with smaller and family-owned companies that offer: whole grains & flours, fresh & frozen meats & produce, earth-friendly cleaning supplies, pet & livestock feeds & supplements, canned & dried foods, garden starts & seeds, herbal salves & remedies, personal health & grooming products, helpful books, and much, much more. Azure Standard has over 14,000 products to choose from.
We have found that some products save us a lot of money, some a little, but all of the groceries have been of the highest quality.
