3/31/21 I love the Hometown Farmers Market. I've been visiting this are for many years and I have…read moreso many memories here! Recently I've moved to the area from Montco. What a different world and pace of life. This will be my weekly shopping spot for fresh produce and freshly baked bread! This was a definite "gain" when I moved to the area for sure! I was so excited to see a beautiful rock and crystal shop too. Of course I just had to buy a rainbow aura quartz sphere and a chunky cut quartz crystal too. Crystals are my new obsession! I also bought some amazing homemade Italian Bread from an Italian lady who bakes her own bread- it's incredible ! She kindly reminded me that there are no preservatives and to keep the bread refrigerated to maintain freshness- it won't be around for long. I tasted empanadas from a food stand I've been dying to try. Crispy and delicious! The meat inside was delicious and savory. I can't wait to hit that stand again next week.

Ok. Let me explain the 3 star rating. If you're a shopper…read moreyou will be pretty happy as it's always packed with vendors. Last time I was there was last summer so writing this a year later. Food selection is very good and reasonable prices. The drive to get there is beautiful, or you can use the interstate nearby. Most vendors have reasonable prices. Huge selection of options to buy stuff. Now, I tried setting up and selling as a vendor. THAT WAS A DISASTER! I actually LOST MONEY trying to sell stuff . I didn't make even $25 and I had an entire truck filled with all kinds of items. The area is extremely poor. The people who were there to shop were mostly broke. They want every thing for a dollar. Lots of " I'll be back" and "I'll think about it". That's code for "I'm broke" lol. So, if you're a shopper Theres lots to buy at good prices. If your a vendor hats not food then good luck making money. I think the only reason vendors go is because it's open on Wednesday and no other markets are so the vendors come. That entire area for miles and multiple towns are economically depressed. Definitely not economically viable. So if you have cash to downs you'll be very happy here.

Does Schuylkill County have you down? Driving through Shenandoah not what it used to be....???…read more B&R Farms is the ideal place to go in northern Schuylkill County for seasonal produce - most famous for their strawberry patch in June. My mom and I made it a personal tradition since I was in high school to frequent a few times a month for their sweet and juicy strawberries. Bring your own strainer, container, or drop a buck for their own charming bucket as a collective reminder of summer. You can pick your own which is always a fun parent-child activity on the cheap or you can buy what they picked for you. If you are a gardener, there's a greenhouse at the farm with various florals and herbs to get your thumb green. Friendly and helpful staff on site or nearby. Two buckets of strawberries cost just under $12 for the sweetest and juiciest strawberries. Now the challenge: Arriving home with a full bucket that you left the farm with! It's nice to know this coal region summer memory has been here all of these years which makes each and every visit into my adulthood a pleasant one - and in this area that's rare to say!

They have a crapton of deer that you can even see from the road in the distance. Spoiler alert: we got rained out of the tour after missing the first one of the day. We stuck around for awhile but the rain only got worse; could tell staff really felt bad. We did go outside to feed the goats and other types of deer in the backyard, which was nice and easy. They also sell deer products including horns inside so we got some things. Would come back to try again and we did enjoy it despite the rain.

Our old dog Sam even used to visit, and the original owners John and Ruth Gould knew our dog. We would get a call that our Sam was confused, going in and out the automatic doors! Now skip to present day...Still the friendliest grocery. During the covid-19 social distancing, employees are taking all precautions. Owners John and Debbie are actively engaged with customers and staff, making regular announcements, spending time on the store floor, etc. Plastic screens are at all registers. The store is clean and orderly. Easy access along Route 93, plenty of parking, a nearby pharmacy, and a few restaurants with carryout make this an ideal grocery stop. Mom made a store run at 7 am today, and was so pleased with what Gould's Shursave is doing. Thank you for taking care of our community!

The produce, deli, bakery and meat departments are very good. There is a lot of variety in all areas of the store! The real draw is that the staff become like family if you shop often enough. It is the friendliness of the staff and owners that make it so nice to shop there. It is hard to find nicer young people that are working and going to school who have time and respect for their customers. I read one review that was so far off the mark! Wrong about everything. I for one don't want or need the big flash or pomp that many NEW grocery stores hype! I like the friendliness, kindness, and good work ethics I find in Gould's!
