There are quiet a few fruits that have a moderate amount of folates present, such as melons, grapefruit, strawberries) and vegetables like tomatoes, broccoli, and some of the lettuces (romaine, for example).

Additionally, folic acid purchased as a tablet for using as a supplement is very affordable.
Folic acid deficiencies came to major attention a few years ago when a study of women giving birth in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas were having children showing neural tube defects, a symptom of folate deficiency during gestation. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17952264 This is one of the most easily avoidable birth defects around, because folates and folic acid are easy to find and easily used as supplements.

(Nature Made is only one of the many suppliers of folic acid. There are probably many less expensive versions available).
