I also appreciated the organization - the website had a map and directory on who the vendors are and where they are located. I was visiting from out of town so I didn't buy a lot of produce, but I did buy a ton of other stuff. From Georgian garlic, to truffles, to wine, to kombucha, to hand pies, to chapsticks... This is a must stop if you're in the area for much more than produce. Come hungry!

Parking was easier around noon and we actually parked at the DMV and walked over which only took about 10 minutes. Tons of vendors and some extremely delicious food being cooked on site - made to order - we really saw a bunch of things we wanted: breakfast burritos, breakfast pitas, boba, baked goods, wines, vinegar, etc. Everyone was friendly and the range of items was large. The produce was the real star of the show - if we lived here we decided we'd be here every weekend stocking up. Sadly, we mostly browsed and had a few snacks. Very nice space right on the water - you can grab a snack or a meal and sit and enjoy a water view.

We planned to cook our breakfasts and dinners in the house, so we needed quite a bit of groceries. The store is large and well-stocked, as I've come to expect from Wegmans.

On top of that, it had plenty of parking and was easy to get into and out of. A good grocery store!

I was particularly excited to see they had various citrus plants for sale that were already fruiting! I didn't grab one this time but I do already regret it. It's hard to find mature plants like that. Parking was easy, there were plenty of spaces available. Accessible to those who need it as well.

He was diagnosed the following day or so with having CamphlobCampylobacteracter in his stool and the health department was notified of the likely contamination after he drank milk from Sunset Creamery. Subsequently, during a routine milk inspection, Campylobacter contamination was found. The department notified Sunset View Creamery about the preliminary test results on Sept. 12, and further testing confirmed the presence of the campylobacter again on Sept. 18, 2023. Campylobacteriosis can cause lasting complications, including irritable bowel syndrome, arthritis, and temporary paralysis.

Here's a strange one. Went to the Ithaca Walmart last…read moreSunday to buy .22 rifle ammunition. After waiting at the sporting goods counter for an eternity, managed to flag someone down. Young man named Tanner. As New York State requires a background check to buy rifle ammo, I had to provide Tanner all my pertinent information. Now mind you, this is supposed to be an instantaneous transaction. Waited and waited some more, but the background check never came through. Tanner said it was probably because it was a Sunday. Ok, maybe. Gave him my phone number and told him to call me. After waiting a week, went back to Wal Mart and met with good ole Tanner and asked him what happened. Said he got busy and forgot to call me back but I had been declined. What? I knew I had a clean record so something was amiss. So I called the NYS Criminal Background Check System and spoke with a person and advised her of my situation. She ran my name and told me it had been accepted immediately for approval on that same Sunday. So I don't know what to think. Should I go back down to Wal Mart and confront this guy? Go to management? Or forget the whole thing. I did try to call them at some point during the week but the phone rang and rang with no results., I was nervous giving someone from Wal Mart my personal information to start with but now this.

The Natural food section of Wegmans may offer similar items, but prices are generally the same, and the variety of Vegan/Vegetarian items at Greenstar is more to my taste and palate. The breakfast hot bar includes Beyond sausage links and scrambled tofu (also buttermilk biscuits for the southern inner child in all of us). I especially like the Indian food options at Greenstar and the small lunch prepared foods like spanakopita, vegan club sandwiches, and burritos. Frozen foods offer Cascadian Farms frozen cherries, which augment my daily bowl of Oatmeal. The NA beer section is comprehensive including the latest offerings from Athletic.

They have such an extensive merchandise, and a wonderful prepared foods/baked goods section!! I recently tried the "Made to Order" sandwiches, and it was DELICIOUS.

I've also placed special orders for their cakes and it was sooo good. My family couldn't been believe it was vegan! Outside of their food, the staff is always super friendly and helpful with any inquiries. Additionally, the store is always super clean and never too busy. They also have CO-OP member savings which are amazing! I love GreenStar!! :)

I visit every so often when I'm in town simply because of how cute it is. I was happy to see they sell some local products, like a hot sauce I previously found at the Ithaca Farmer's Market. Their book selection is also charming - I spotted a bathroom check-in book for guests to fill out, which I thought was such a fun idea. If you're visiting Ithaca and looking for local or homemade goods, Sunny Days is definitely the place to check out! :)
