I think that the safest approach is to stick to canned fruits and vegetables for the first weeks or months post-transplant. They aren't as fresh but they are still nutritious and they are safe. A single bacterial infection can be a major setback after a transplant, and the limitations of canned food are very temporary in the scheme of things.

Once the initial recovery period is over, you can graduate to the safest fruits and vegetables and those you can thoroughly wash. The goal is to get your full health back, and then you can enjoy berries, leafy greens, and everything else for the rest of your life!
