I went to Grand Mart for the first time last week. I was greeted and welcomed into the store by a…read morekind staff member. The store has a large selection of vegetables, fruits, meat, and fish! There were 3 fresh food areas in the store. One sold mochi donuts. One sold fried chicken and the other sold a variety of fresh foods. There was an area that had kitchen items and I found a cute rice bowl set that I've been using everyday! I ended up finding all the food items I needed and a few extra items! Overall, this store has excellent selection. I will definitely be returning!

I had no idea this farmers market existed! I found out because I was stalking.... I mean trying to…read morefigure out how to get my hands on some Klassic Doughnuts. I found out they were going to be here so I planned to visit the Farmers Market. Locating the Farmers Market was not too hard. The area it is located in is so cute. Parking is hard. You have to park on the street which is tight! There is a small section of parking lot opened at the church, but, that fills up fast. Parking on the street is better than the lot. Be prepared to walk to and from your car. They had about 20-30 different places. You can get fresh produce, knifes sharpened, bath products... and DOUGHNUTS! It's a nice small farmers market.

As far as farmers markets go, this one is small but carries an abundance of character…read more Not all vendors attend every market, but there is a great variety. Bodacious bakehouse have you covered for your freshly baked artisan bread needs, Cowboy Syd's got your neo-southern gourmet goodies (those of you who are Norfolk locals will know about Chef Meers and his famous restaurant career), meanwhile Cullipher Farm brings you locally grown fruits and veggies from Pungo Ridge. Three ships coffee roll up in their awesome coffee machine (don't know what I mean? You should be here then!) and Doughminion Donuts brings the treats for your sugary needs, soon to close their doors in Selden Market, but they'll be here right through til September. Then there's Fayton Farms artisan cheeses offering up some finely crafted small batch cheese from Mechanicsville but locally sourced milk, and Hampton Roads Winery coming through with the vino offering a taste of their wines for $1, and my personal favorite The Flower Lady, Robin Lindsey from Portsmouth along with her heeler pup Reno - bringing fresh free range chicken and duck eggs along with locally grown flowers. It's small, but there are plenty more vendors I've not named that should be checked out. The later in the day you get there the less there is on offer to buy, but it's definitely one to check out, just make sure you bring some dollars with you, it's not the cheapest - but all in the name of supporting small businesses right!? Love your locals!!

What happened to the first E-Mart adjoined to Costco and Fresh Market? E-Mart occupied the same…read morebuilding as World Market, now with new signs and different merchandise. The new location has only half of what I bought at Jefferson Avenue in Newport News (not the other store on Warwick blvd.) E-Mart was relocated virtually overnight and without warning to Virginia Beach from Newport News. Did an army of marauders lug everything south or was it quantum tunneling and computer modeling that displace matter within space...? World Market in Newport News is the new E-Mart and has only furniture, not the Asian food I was looking for. Instead, I went next door to Fresh Market and bought two bags of red, white and blue potato chips. The woman of color behind the counter knew I understood what they had done. She said something out of context with my shopping trip: "It's my turn now." As if reparations are my duty to the world and I have to hand over the American legacy on a silver platter to make things right. Oh, so that's why you keep moving things around. Okay! Don't look at me if you want 40 acres and a mule because thanks to the local radical left politicians and reverse discrimination I have neither. This is a shell game. Someone is practicing psyops.

As a child growing up in South Carolina my family and I would always get up on Saturdays and go to…read moreyard sales, flea markets, and farmers markets. I haven't been to any type of market in ages, but this morning I felt like exploring. I moved to Virginia 3 1/2 years ago and I enjoy cooking in my kitchen. I've had several thoughts about going to the farmer markets in the areas and I made those thoughts come true on today. My first stop was here at this particular one. Upon entering, we were greeted by Anna or Annie. She was working behind the counter and welcomed us inside. She even told me where I could find something specific I was looking for. As she waited on customers to shop she stocked up on some things and aligned items on shelves. Super helpful! We walked around and collected several items before heading to the register. I told her we hadn't been to a farmers market in so many years and she told us to come back any time and that they would be happy to serve us. Made my entire day!!! The ambiance of the market felt family strong. I loved the atmosphere and the foods/products made readily available. I can't wait to return. Upon leaving we saw that there was a food truck on the premises serving ice cream and hotdogs. We had just came from eating and didn't get to check them out, but if it's there when we return we'll definitely check it out. If you're reading my review, please go by and check them out.

Spending over $50 for a bag of apples and a bucket of grapes is so steep. I understand that it is expensive to have farms like this but if you want people to pay those prices I would definitely consider updating your location. Add actual bathrooms, more things for kids to do and some more animals for a small petting zoo. It was also not very clear on where to go to start picking apples/grapes. Wish they had it more clearly labeled.

I visited Cullipher Farm on a Saturday morning for their popular pumpkin and sunflower picking, and…read moreit absolutely exceeded our expectations! This place truly has it all when it comes to fall family fun. First off, the Pick-Your-Own experience was fantastic. We loved roaming through the lush pumpkin patch to find the perfect pumpkins and had a great time picking vibrant sunflowers right from the field (they even provide shears so you can cut your own). The apple orchard also looked tempting! There was a constant flow of families filling their bags with fresh apples. The farm activities offer something for everyone. We explored the corn maze, which was both challenging and fun. The sunflower fields were in full bloom and made for wonderful photo ops. The wagon rides added a classic, charming touch to the whole experience and are a big hit with kids. The amenities and extras are a huge plus. The on-site market is filled with fresh, local fruits, vegetables, meats, and breads. We treated ourselves to apple cider donuts (which I highly recommend. soft, warm, and perfectly spiced!) and grabbed coffee from the food truck to fuel our morning. There was also an ice cream stand and an impressive playground that kept the kids entertained while we relaxed for a bit. Cullipher Farm nails the fall farm experience. Whether you're there for pumpkin picking, sunflower fields, or just some good old-fashioned family fun, there's something for everyone. The staff was friendly, everything was well-organized, and despite the weekend crowds, the atmosphere was lively but not overwhelming. We left with pumpkins, fresh-cut sunflowers, and big smiles all around.

Pretty decent Food Lion location…read more I've been shopping here on and off for the past few months, and I do not have any complaints regarding finding what I need and customer service. In fact, the gentleman who wears a ponytail is great at helping folks find what they need. He must know the store like the back of his hand. The prices at this location are more or less in line with other similar grocery stores in the area. The store is pretty clean, organized, and well-stocked . . . especially the wine and beer section.

I'll also make a note to say that wait time is extremely low when checking out. I would recommend this location as one of your local neighborhood grocery stores.

Skipper Farms has a stand at the hybrid indoor-outdoor Virginia Beach Farmer's market and is…read morelocated at one end of the pavilion-covered outdoor area, which offers a good amount of shade. It sells seasonal local and regional produce, flowers and starter herb/vegetable plants, and canned goods. -- The Produce, Flowers, & Goods -- They carry local and regional fruits and vegetables to offer a pretty wide selection, even having peaches in May, and everything always looks fresh, although occasionally items seem to not always be at the peak of freshness; for example, most of the strawberries we purchased look very good and tasted amazing but a few were probably best a couple of days ago. They report no use of pesticides/herbicides. The seedling starter plants and flowers look very good. In the fall they have fresh-pressed cider, and they're in the process of offering their own coffee beans soon. Other items include honey, apple butter, and jams as well as pickles and fresh eggs. -- Experience -- The produce is on display and well-spaced throughout their stand. Staff are friendly and helpful, and they are prompt and attentive when I've gone up to make purchases. -- Seasonal Operating Hours -- Skipper Farms is open daily from 10am to 6pm from mid-March until almost Christmas in late December. -- Cash & Credit -- They accept both cash and credit cards. -- Things to Note -- They have plastic hand baskets you can borrow while shopping at their stand. Bring reusable bags so you don't have to use their plastic ones. -- CSA Membership -- Skipper Farms offers an annual Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) membership -- check out their Facebook or this location for more information. This is where the consumer pays upfront to support farmers and receives a weekly basket of fresh produce.
