Simply Produce is now at Girard’s in Osborne!

Girard’s in Osborne is the latest store to be added to the list of grocery stores in Post Rock District to participate in the Simply Produce initiative!

“Simply Produce” offers customers approximately 15 pounds of produce for $15.00. Produce baskets will contain a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables and may vary slightly from what is typically available on the produce department’s shelves. Basket contents will be different for each ordering period as well. In addition to produce, customers will receive a recipe highlighting basket items, as well as educational materials on food storage and produce handling. Produce baskets are purchased through the Grocery store register and must be paid for at time of ordering. The purchase is taxable.

Girard’s March Distribution Details:  Baskets must be ordered in store between March 4 – March 10th at noon and distribution is set for March 16th from 12 – 12:30pm at the Osborne Free Methodist Church, 724 W. Main St. in Osborne. Customers will drive up to the church and volunteers and Post Rock District staff will bring out their purchased basket(s). Distribution will be held on the 3rd Wednesday of each month. Contact Girard’s by calling 785-346-2600 or contact Ashley Svaty asvaty@ksu.edu or Brenda Langdon bklangdon@ksu.edu for program details.
