They lead me right to a product I cannot find, the people in the supplement area explain how the products work in depth and know why they should be used If I have further questions they will look things up on the computer and they will search for and order special things I need ( as long as their supplier has them). The cashiers are courteous and friendly, the deli staff are always quite busy and they too are friendly and eager to help. The meat and seafood department is always clean and the staff ready to help. I have been going to Sunny farms for six years and have never been disappointed or treated rudely. I feel that some of the bad reviews may be from those who walked in one time caught someone on a bad day and want to write off the whole store or at least that one person as awful. The place is always busy and I see regular customers there often just like myself.

He is unbelievably rude and sarcastic! Condescending too. I politely asked him a question about a supplement, wondering if he's heard if they're good. He had the audacity to look down at me and say " Well, I'm not doctor, so I don't know" Was that REALLY necessary? Unbelievable and unacceptable. Worst 'customer service EVER'

We wanted something different for Thanksgiving, so we settled on braised bone-in beef short ribs…read more Based on past experience, I planned on two short ribs per person and ordered from Evergreen accordingly. OMG, they were huge! We ended up just cooking one person and still had leftovers (and now I have the rest in my freezer for a future feast). The beef was absolutely melt-in-your-mouth tender and delicious! I hadn't bought from Evergreen before, but I certainly will in the future. That business is a treasure in our community.

I stopped in to talk with someone about how this works and the staff member was very helpful and patient as we had not done this before. He went over a checklist of how we wanted parts cut (chops, package weight, etc.). Three weeks later, we are stocked with all things pork! Packages are clearly marked with contents and packaged so they can go right into the freezer as is. It was a very easy and smooth process from start to end. The facility is all business--refrigerators with many choices of various smoked meats and an open butchering (?) section that can accommodate lots of staff to do what they do and a small office. We didn't buy any of the smoked meats when we picked up the pork, but my husband went back to buy some landjaeger out of curiosity. It was delicious! Not sure how to describe it--a toothy, meaty better than your usual beef /pork jerky. So, we went back another day and spent way too much on smoked salmon, teriyaki pepperoni sticks and many, many more packages of landjaeger. I really enjoyed the white salmon because it was less salmon-y/fishy (I'm not a huge salmon fan); husband preferred the red King. The teriyaki pepperoni are way too easy to eat and are not overly sweet. It's more like essence of teriyaki which I very much enjoy. I can't wait to try more of their products!

Dual Review for Market and Taco Window:…read more 1. The staff is so welcoming, knowledgeable and hard working. I got a few pounds of sable fish for Christmas and it was so delicious!

Plenty of frozen off season like duck meat. House cured sausages, pepperonis of several spicy levels, and bacon. The price sticker indicates the cut, price, farm where the meat originated/distance from the shop, and the animal's diet. The guy who helped me was super nice and patient with my browsing. He answered my questions and grabbed the pieces I asked for instead of the biggest ones. I've cooked up half of what I bought and the meat is excellent. The shop is spacious and comfortable and has pantry items, freezer and dairy on the perimeter walls so if you need to wait it's not unpleasant to do so.

Their product is top of the line. You walk in there and the meat options are endless! I have never scene so much bacon in my life. I am a huge lover of bacon and this was the perfect spot. The staff is very knowledgeable about their cuts of meat and when they are uncertain they will call an expert from the back. I was so impressed with the enthusiasm from the staff. They answered all my silly questions and knew how to dig information out of me to understand what I wanted in meat so they could provide the best product. I have yet to enjoy their prepared foods but one day I am going to make a meal out of it. They have somosas, kebabs, sweet spud fries etc. This is one amazing market and it appears the island has embraced it as well. If you find yourself coming to the island and needing supplies you will do yourself a disservice if you don't stop by the Cowichan Valley Meat Market.
