What is your go-to destination for organic produce in Irvine? I've found that Sprouts only has a limited selection of organic fruits & vegetables.

Smith Farms (Jeffrey and Bryan Ave) is a good start.

Whole Foods by the Spectrum or the Saturday Farmers Market at Mariners Church.

This seems like an excellent spot! Do they usually sell out before closing time at 6pm?

The Irvine Farmers Market at Mariners Church looks great! Would you say there are as many organic produce vendors as non-organic produce vendors?

Depends what you're looking for. We can get pretty much all the organic produce we need from Sprouts, Trader Joes, Costco, and Whole Foods. Farmers market is good but the majority of vendors there aren't organic.

Those are the stores we had in mind initially too! What about places like Wholesome Choice or Mother's Market? Do they carry organic and/or high quality produce?

Wholesome Choice is a middle eastern market. A lot of produce there but mostly not organic. Mother's I would say is a smaller version of Whole Foods or Sprouts.

Awesome, thanks very much for the helpful insights!
