Tips for keep your produce fresh: 
The corn and other vegetables should be kept refrigerated to maintain freshness.  If it is a hot day, and your lettuce is starting to get limp, just wash with some water and put it back in the plastic bag in the fridge. When maintained properly, this lettuce will last more than a week.  These are also fresh onions, so they should be kept in the fridge as well.  Please treat like a scallion and use some of the greens. 
For the fruit, I recommend putting a third to a half of your fruit in your fruit bowl when you get home with the remainder in the fridge.  Then, as you eat your fruit, gradually take more out.  This will keep it from all ripening at once. Some people are afraid to keep their fruit cold, but we do this as soon as we pick it to stop it from ripening any further.  Just try to eat it all by the end of the week.

Enjoy!
