Always a nice drive and experience visiting Mountain Valley Farm. The beef is legit the best beef I…read morehave ever tasted. Bring a cooler and stock up while you are here. Bring the kids so they can see the animals (and maybe get them an I've cream while you're there). Or, I'd the kids aren't with you, go to the winery just around the corner for some relaxation.

I bit down on gristle and what seemed to be a bone fragment lately. Stew beef you could cut with a fork but not anymore. I will be looking for another place. Something has changed here

Supermarket beef is a pale shadow of this delicious meat, and you can feel a little better about eating beef from local, well cared for cattle rather than from industrial herds.

It can get busy at times but it never seems to get in your way. The bins are large enough that you can get what you need easily.

Mountain Fresh Creamery is a spot that needs to be added to your detour list if it isn't already. They offer an assortment of fresh milk, butter, cheeses, and other goodies inside of their store. Make sure to sample the pimento cheese and the chocolate milk. If you are planning a trip - take a cooler! While inside, you may see them processing milk at the viewing window. It is a pretty cool experience. The staff is very nice and helpful. Be sure to grab a scoop of their fresh ice cream or a milk shake. Enjoy it on one of the picnic tables they have available and take a selfie with the cow out front!

You get used to it. :)

One of our favorites is the Cheese Danish but feel it still needs some adjustments...it is a lot of dough. The filling is delish. The glaze on top is to a very minimal and could probably use more glaze. Definitely too much breading and not enough glaze on top.

Yonger is a rare shop, in my humble opinion, for east coast since healthy choices both in markets and eateries are like trying to find a needle in a haystack so my heart happy knowing this exists here not far from where we stayed at just minutes from our children's maternal great-grandparents home. So many wonderful options and staff was friendly from the time we walked in to the moment of checkout. I highly recommend this shop to anyone who's looking for more sustainable items or at least a healthier choice here and there.
