                    WAIVER AND ELEVENTH AMENDATORY AGREEMENT
                          Dated as of February 21, 1997

                  This WAIVER AND ELEVENTH AMENDATORY AGREEMENT is among FARM
FRESH, INC., a Virginia corporation (the "Borrower"), the guarantors parties to
the Credit Agreement referred to below (the "Guarantors"), the lenders parties
to the Credit Agreement referred to below (the "Lenders"), and FLEET BANK, N.A.
(as successor to NatWest USA Credit Corp.), as agent (the "Agent") for the
Lenders thereunder.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS:

                  (1) The Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Agent
have entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of December 10, 1993 (as
amended to date, the "Credit Agreement"); the terms defined therein being used
herein as therein defined unless otherwise defined herein.

                  (2) The Borrower and the Lenders have, on the terms and
conditions stated below, agreed to waive and amend certain of the terms of the
Credit Agreement as hereinafter set forth.

                  SECTION 1. Waiver. The Borrower has advised the Agent and the
Lenders of the Borrower's non-compliance (the "Non-Compliance") with Section
7.07 of the Credit Agreement (Capital Expenditures), as the result of the
Capital Expenditures of the Borrower and its subsidiaries for the Fiscal Year
ending December, 1996 being $21,000,000, instead of the $18,000,000 Maximum
Amount under the Credit Agreement. Effective as of the date hereof and subject
to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 hereof,
the Agent and the Lenders each hereby waive any Event of Default arising out of
the Borrower's Non-Compliance with Section 7.07 of the Credit Agreement;
provided, however, that the foregoing waiver shall be limited to the
Non-Compliance with Section 7.07 of the Credit Agreement and shall not apply to
any other non-compliances with the terms of the Credit Agreement or any other
Loan Documents. With respect to the aforementioned Non-Compliance with the
Capital Expenditures covenant for the Fiscal Year ending December, 1996, the
foregoing waiver shall also be effective as of December 28, 1996.

                  SECTION 2. Amendments to Credit Agreement. Effective as of the
date hereof and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set
forth in Section 3 hereof, the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

                  Section 7.07 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
deleting the table set forth therein and by substituting therefor the following
table:

                  "Period                                     Maximum Amount

Fiscal Year ending December 28, 1996                             $21,000,000

Fiscal Year ending December 27, 1997                             $ 8,000,000
  and each Fiscal Year thereafter"


         SECTION 3. Conditions of Effectiveness. This Waiver and Amendatory
Agreement shall be operative as of the date hereof but shall become effective
when, and only when, the Agent shall have received (x) counterparts of this

the legality, validity or enforceability of this Waiver and Amendatory Agreement
and the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

                           (e)      The  execution,   delivery  and  performance
of  this  Waiver  and  Amendatory Agreement does not conflict with or violate in
any manner the terms of any of the Borrower's Senior Notes (or the related
Senior Indenture) or Subordinated Indebtedness or in any manner affect the
status of the Obligations under the Credit Agreement regarding the subordination
provisions of the Borrower's Subordinated Indebtedness.

                           (a)  Upon  the  effectiveness  of this  Waiver  and
Amendment,  on and  after  the date hereof each reference in the Credit
Agreement to "this Agreement," "hereunder," "hereof" or words of like import

Documents to "the Credit Agreement," "thereunder," "thereof" or words of like

                           (b)      Except as specifically  amended above,  the
Credit Agreement and the Notes, and all other Loan Documents, are and shall
continue to be in full force and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified

                           (c)      The  execution,  delivery  and
effectiveness  of this  Waiver  and  Amendatory Agreement shall not, except as
expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of

of any provision of any of the Loan Documents.

                  SECTION 6. Costs, Expenses and Taxes. The Borrower agrees to
pay on demand all costs and expenses of the Agent in connection with the

Amendatory Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so

Agreement  shall be  governed  by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of
