Hi there, my name is Leila Towry. I coordinate a Farmers' Market Salad Bar program with LA Unified Schools. Currently, we deliver the farm produce from the Farmers' Market with college vans. In the future this is not possible and so we have been exploring different models of deliver systems. I am currious as to how you organize this. Is all the produce from one farm or a cooperative of farms. Do you know of any models that work? Something like a non-profit brokerage? Just thought I would try you! Thanks!-Leila
