On our drive back from Point Reyes, we passed by the small town of Bolinas to visit Mickey Murch's organic farm. The farm stand is a drive-thru organic market which utilizes the honor system and you pay into a small yellow box in the front. We even helped package some fresh eggs from the chicken coup. I got fresh basil, kale, beets and zucchini for the week. The total of the bag was only $10. Compared to Whole Foods I saved $6. Plus, it supports local farmers and reduced packaging and transportation costs. Not always the most convenient grocery shopping for a city folk, but worthwhile driving back from a camping trip.
