Yes - kind of like the monthly boxes that were super popular a few years ago that would give you a grab bag offering for a monthly fee. I’ve also heard them referred to as co-op (short for cooperative). There are a few different types and ways that they work. Some ship to you and others you have to go pick up, the one I was a part of was affiliated with the local farmers market. The farmer who ran it would bring his goods to sell individually at the farmers market, but at the same time, you could pay a monthly fee to take home a selection of stuff that was in season. So instead of buying 3 tomatoes, 4 onions, or 5 apples individually from him, you would get a basket that had either 3 tomatoes and 4 onions or 3 tomatoes and 5 apples (your choice) that was cheaper than buying individually.
