Fruit and Veg Market - Fresh Produce on Campus!
Fresh produce, right on campus. No grocery run. No hassle. Just bags of seasonal fruit and veggies at prices well below what you’d pay at a store. Grab one between classes and you’re set for the week. Open to all students and employees.
The Details
Cost: $12.99 per bag — that’s 30–50% less than you’d pay for the same produce at a grocery store. Bags are pre-sorted so you can grab and go.
Payment Options: Cash, debit, or credit
Time: 11:00 am – 3:00 pm, or while supplies last — come early if you can.
