Medford Food Co-Op is my FAVORITE place to buy organic produce in Southern Oregon because is…read moreconsistently super fresh. I don't know how they do it because other stores don't. They have a great bulk section as well. I always check out the meat department but I don't usually purchase because the prices appear to be higher than anywhere else except the Neiman-Marcus of Southern Oregon, Ashland Food Co-Op. I don't typically purchase meat there either because the prices are even higher unless something is on sale and it's something I need. I love the charming acquaintance of MFC, payed lime green and purple and nestled back in tall beautiful trees and greenery. The feeling when I pull into that parking lot is incredibly soothing -- and it's right on Riverside Drive. Go figure? Everyone who works at MFC is kind, warm, and welcoming. They're also really helpful if I have a question or I need something that they might not sell regularly or I just can't find it in the store. I never have a long wait at checkout because they understand service and a cashier comes up to the front immediately when there is anyone waiting to check out. Very, very impressive! Another thing that I really appreciate is that the store is always spotless and organized as well as 100% organic. I don't have to worry about buying something, driving home, and discovering that I purchased conventional food which I do not eat. MFC generally has the things that I want to purchase and it's very easy for me to efficiently pop in by what I need and get back on the road to finish my errands and go home. I probably shop here three times a week, maybe more because I love to buy things fresh. Please keep up the good work, folks. My husband and I really appreciate you!!!

Another Great Experience @ The HealthWay Nutrition Center in Medford, OR. !!…read more I was warmly greeted upon entry by Tyler and he asked if I needed assistance, which I did. I was in search of a similar product that is no longer provided to me from another source. Luckily, I brought in my empty bottle and he looked it over in order to compare vital information to what they have in stock. Tyler was enthusiastic and knew all of the name brand products on hand and their ingredients, which helped me make a well informed decision. I was happy that the NOW brand was most similar to what I was in the market for, and I appreciated the assistance! Thank you.

The korean burritto wrap was falling apart and the flavor needed a punch like add a bimbimbap sauce or some kind of korean flavored sauce with some korean chili flavor. The slaw on the side was not great and just tasted like vinegar and paprika. The BLT was on a small fresh roll but was also falling apart and made it hard to eat without making a mess. The bacon had no smokey flavor and the cream cheese was a little too much so changes I would make is stronger bun, bacon with more smokiness, maybe some picked red onion to cut the richness. Anyway we will be back to try the soups they are known for. Service was great and coffee was too. Will update next visit...

I do not like blue cheese. I'll get that out of the way first. But Rogue Creamery with their world…read morerenowned cheese? There's no way I could resist visiting. On a weekday morning right during opening, as soon as I opened the front door, I could smell funky blue cheese wafting through the entire shop. Rogue Creamery doesn't make many types of cheese - just a couple of blues and cheddar, nestled in a single refrigerated display case, but they also offer other cheeses from several different outside suppliers. To complete a cheese plate, they also sell an assortment of charcuterie items like jams and honeys, and plenty of items in the fridge. Of course, since we were traveling, we couldn't exactly buy much, so we went with one of their famous grilled cheeses: Classic Rogue Grilled Cheese ($8) - This sandwich includes a drizzle of honey on both faces of bread followed by a sprinkle of blue cheese. and then a veritable mound of cheddar, which is then sandwiched together and pressed in a panini press. The amount of cheese included creates an awesome cheese stretch. The sandwich is rich and fatty, and the bread, cheese, and honey blends creates a somewhat salty, funky and sweet bite. While the bread is toasted, I don't believed it's buttered, so it isn't that crisp. I'd like to see some additional crunchy elements in the sandwich - perhaps some toasted nuts? I dislike blue cheese immensely, but it's surprisingly mild and sweet in this sandwich, being blended and balanced with the cheddar. Would I get this sandwich again? Probably not, due to the blue cheese, but it was great to try! Rogue Creamery Rogue Gold Pepper Spread Spicy, 8oz ($7.25) - This seems to be Rogue Creamery's version of pimento cheese, colored orange by addition of plenty of red colored piquillo peppers. That adds a delightful mild spiciness along with a flavor that is kind of fruity and very peppery, different from pimentos. The cheese is high quality and there isn't any liquid precipitating out of the spread. It's easy to spread while still having plenty of soft cheese shreds. It's a great replacement for pimento cheese and I ate most of it spread on biscuits and baguette slices. (5/5) PS: Make sure to look at the best buy dates. The first couple of containers in the front looked kind of funky with oils/liquids precipitating out of the cheese. Turns out those were expiring/best by the day I went. Further back there were much fresher looking ones packed the previous day, which is what I chose to buy. Note: Do not follow google directions for parking - instead, the parking lot is a little bit to the South, right in front of a wine tasting bar and bakery. Bathrooms - Single unisex

A True Jacksonville Gem. Cowhorn Kitchen Sets the local Standard…read more Tucked into the magical town of Jacksonville, Oregon, Cowhorn Kitchen is an extension of its equally enchanting winery hidden deep in the Applegate Valley. This small, intimate restaurant captures everything that makes Southern Oregon special like local ingredients, seasonal flavors, and a deep respect for the land. What really sets Cowhorn Kitchen apart is their commitment to soil-to-table dining. Every dish features ingredients foraged from nearby hills or raised by local producers, and the team takes the time to explain how their wines pair with each plate, right down to the soil that nurtured the grapes. You don't just eat here; you may learn something new here. Whether you're craving a perfectly executed burger or a beautifully prepared cut of meat, the menu delivers every single time. There's no full bar, but trust me the wines are the star of the show. Balanced, expressive, and crafted with intention, there's a pour for every palate. If you're visiting Historic Jacksonville, Cowhorn Kitchen is an absolute must for date night or entertaining friends. A rare combination of heart, craft, and unforgettable flavor.
