Much like Bill Gates left Harvard after creating Microsoft and Newton quit the University of Phoenix after inventing gravity, Mother Nature dropped out of culinary school after perfecting the recipe for apples. Savor Mother Nature's innate talents with today's Groupon: for $12, you get $25 worth of organic fruit and vegetable baskets from HomeGrown Organics. Pick up baskets at Penn Floor & Interiors on Southwest 17th Street on Mondays.

Culling farm-fresh organic produce from local growers, HomeGrown Organics prepares customized fruit and vegetable baskets for hungry herbivores. Each order comes stocked full of USDA-certified organic fruits and customers can choose to fill their cornucopias with a half share ($25) or a full share ($40) of earth-grown goodies. Baskets can come brimming with broccoli, red potatoes, apples, bananas, blueberries, garlic, kale, pears, kiwis, and a whole host of other herbaceous delectables ideal for sprucing up dinner or for carving faces during Halloween: April Edition. Customers can call or email their orders, which must be placed at least 48 hours in advance of pickup.
