Produce at Church

Hello. Was wondering if anyone has bought produce from the church on Socrum Loop Rd by Publix across from the apartment complex? I think it's the Fellowship Church. I always see they have produce out there for sale, but never seem to have cash as I pass by. If you have bought from there, how was the quality and prices. I always go to the Farmer's Market to get a bunch of green beans and this past Saturday I got 2 HUGE carrots. Spent $8.50 for the carrots and 3 tubs of green beans. I love fresh veggies.

I have bought from there 2 times & Very Happy with the quality & prices. Did you see the garden on the north side of the church? What isn't grown there it is grown in back yards locally, but I believe most is grown there. Best tasting Tomato I have had in a long time.The name of the church Believer's Fellowship.
