Even old town is kind of a neat place to go through. You can sample at the candy shop or get some fresh crab off the docks.

I also like SPUD.com.  They have a "Fresh Harvest Box" which is organic fruits and vegetables which are in season and they offer free delivery if you order a certain amount.  Most of the food in the harvest box is local and also very good.  My biggest problems with them were that I always got too much stuff that it went bad and I always had to throw some of it away ($30 of produce is too much for one person to eat before some of it goes bad).  Some of the items included were also a little pricy in my opinion..   Overall, SPUD is the best I've found that still operates today.

I'm also thinking of trying the new Amazon delivery service since they just started up in my area and it looks like they have lower delivery minimums - however, it doesn't look like they have "box" product for what it fresh and in season.
