Has anyone ever ordered from SPUD?
If so, how would you rate their service? Were you satisfied with the products you received?

I use SPUD and enjoy their company. They are friendly. The only problem I have had is that for the past few couple of months, every other week or so, I have had an item missing*. I have only once had the wrong item delivered (the wrong brand of cream cheese), and I have been ordering from them for at least a year, total, over 2 different time periods.

The food is always fresh and tastes good.

I love the options that they have like:
  • being able to enter how often you would like to have particular vegetables and fruits delivered
  • having a standing order that is adjustable, so that you don't have to remember to order milk, cheese, etc.
  • you can search for organic items if you want, without needing to wade through the things that are only natural, but not organic
  • ALL produce is organic

I recommend the company.

*They have no problem giving me a refund, but I am now to the point that I'm going to call them to mention the frequency that I haven't received an item so that they can solve the problem and get back to their wonderful delivery record.

Great! Thanks.
I mainly just want to get some fruit/veggies that I can't always find. Like organic strawberries and organic lettuce. Lately I seem to be going to multiple stores just to buy what I need. I rather just buy it through 1 source.

I have never heard of SPUD.. I could probably just look them up I guess, but what exactly do they do?

It is a delivery service. They make local organic foods available to you. They work with local growers/farmers. You just pick and choose like you would on a market online site. They also have recurrent shipments and boxes with produce that can be delivered to you based on your preference. It is really up to you.
