Hi! I'm Ned.I’m a drum-playing husband, dad of two, avocado aficionado, and co-founder of The Alexander Fruit Company. 10 years ago in the farmer’s market parking lot, we started our company delivering 25 paper bags of produce to friends and family. Our business grew and we quickly became the produce delivery service of choice to over 400 happy families in the Triangle. We brought the freshest fruits and veggies to them, and they enjoyed the ease of living a healthy lifestyle. |
When Hurricane Matthew destroyed our facility, we made the choice to pivot and provide fruit to incredible corporate offices around the Triangle. Now that we (and the world) are faced with another unforeseen crisis, we’re coming back to our roots, serving families with the most basic need: fresh food to eat.
We believe that access to healthy food is a right, not a luxury.
We’re committed to bringing the freshest fruits and veggies to your door, so you can reap the benefits of a healthy lifestyle today and always.

By having the high quality produce delivered right to me, I don't spend the time at the grocery store picking over produce; I don't have to spend time planning what to eat; and I don't have to worry about having enough time to get to the store to buy healthy food - it’s all right there for me!

FAQ
How is your produce different from what’s in the grocery store?
Choosing The Alexander Fruit Company means you get the freshest and highest-quality fruits and veggies, chosen by an expert just for you. Plus, you don’t have to go to the grocery store or worry about all the hands that touched that apple you’re eating. Win-win.
How often do we get our delivery?
We bring your produce to you every Thursday, unless you want to skip a week (that’s fine by us!). Just let us know by the Sunday before midnight of the week you'd like to skip.
Where do you deliver?
We will deliver to Raleigh, Durham, Cary, and Knightdale and a bit beyond.
Am I locked into a contract?
Nope. You can cancel your weekly membership at any time (although we doubt you’ll want to!) by letting us know by the Sunday before midnight of the week you’d like to cancel.
Are there any extra fees?
No sign up fee. No delivery fee. No confusing deposits or surcharges. Just the price of your perfectly picked produce package.
Can I customize my package?
For now we don’t offer customized packages. We don't have the software to automate this process or the man-power to execute it. Currently we're doing everything we can to streamline the process and get you your package in a fresh and timely manner.
Can I skip a week?
You can skip any week by emailing us at Hello@alexanderfruit.com before Sunday at midnight. SKIP requests received after Sunday at MIDNIGHT automatically become part of our Give program. This means we discount your package $10 and donate your produce to a local family in need since we have likely already bought your food from our all-star farmers & vendors.
Is this organic?
We love to include some local and/or organic options when they’re available at the farmer’s market, but our biggest priority is top-tier, delicious produce at an unbeatable price.
What kind of fruits and veggies will I get?
The variety will change week-to-week depending on what’s available at the farmers market. Some items will be staples like leafy greens, root veggies, onions, apples and bananas. But many items will change weekly to keep your meals interesting.

Having your produce over the last 8 years has been a gift through every season. No matter what's going on in our lives, I know my kids, my husband and I will have easy, healthy options on hand. Thank you for always going above and beyond to make sure high-quality fruits and veggies fill our deliveries.
