I was planning an event for around 18 people and I needed to make large amounts of watermelon juice and cucumber/lime juice, so I was looking for a way to get the goods in bulk and cheaper than the grocery store. E&J was able to get me everything I needed, AND Lupe delivered it to my place on the morning of my event. It was so easy, and all the items were high quality. It's a travesty that there was only 1 review for E&J, because it's easy to look past, but if you're having a big event and you need high quality produce and fruits, he's your guy. I know he mostly serves restaurants - which makes sense - but I was pleasantly surprised at how convenient this was for my group's needs. I would use again!

Good Box Organics is not only convenient, with the food being delivered right to my door, but is entirely healthy as well. The owners Samantha and Mark started this business in 2010 and have a mission of creating a healthier future. The best part is they work with local farmers to get all their produce and find multiple ways to give back to the community. They also have their Support a School program where they donate 5% back from every box sold. They have different boxes to choose from and different sizes as well. Some boxes are fruits only and others include fruits and vegetables. I went with the half size fruit and vegetable box. Before delivery, you get an email of what is going to be inside the box and the best part for me is, it includes recipes of what you can make with the items in your box. My box included an avocado, pears, apples, oranges, broccoli, cilantro, pink chard, and lettuce. One of the recipes included Baked Broccoli Parmesan Fritters which I am definitely going to try out because I always need new ideas for meals with having two small children. The delivery fee for their boxes is $6.95 or you can pick up the boxes for free at many of their local pickup locations. The service area covers the greater Los Angeles Area , San Fernando Valley, Pasadena, and Conejo Valley so definitely something for everyone!

It is interesting to see the difference in produce around the country and around the world. At this market, the vendors were so friendly and loved telling me about their produce for sale. Some vendors offered tastings and others had very unique items. My favorite was the long beans called ice- cream beans. Many of the booths had a price sheet or prices on a chalk board so it was easy to know how much everything would cost either by the piece or pound. The market stretches a few blocks close to the beach and is easily walkable to the pier area.
