Crowd Farming avocados
After a satisfactory experience buying Spanish oranges via Crowd Farming, I have now tried buying a 4 kg box of Haas avocados, also from Spain. The order was placed on Wed17th Feb for about £32. The fruit is picked to order and this must have happened in the following day or two. The box was collected by a shipper on 22nd and delivered here by Parcel Force on 25th. We haven't yet finished them but I am happy to say that these avocados are the best I have ever tasted with none of the problems I have sometimes had with fruit past its best from the supermarket. Under this system one buys direct from a farmer and there are several offering avocados. Mine came from this woman's farm: https://www.crowdfarming.com/en/farmer/la-atalaya/up/buy-avocados-h...
