There are organic produce, specialty and niche brands of foods, snacks, groceries, condiments, household products, foods that cater to special diets (vegan, gluten-free, etc), cheeses and pastas, gourmet items, and a separate area of just vitamins & supplements, natural/clean beauty, homeopathic remedies, and other health & wellness products. There is also a deli area with a juice bar, takeaway sushi, prepared foods, soups, and a hot & cold buffet bar. You can take your food to eat in the cafe area near the entrance and also upstairs. The store is always very clean, well maintained and organized (labels all facing the same way, for example - details!). I'm able to find pretty much everything I need for healthful living, organic/less processed foods & snacks for my family, and so many brands and products that you can't get in regular grocery stores.

The sourdough is really good - crisp, fluffy, good size. It's just a really nice loaf. They sometimes sell them as half loaves too. The desert section is fun to browse. I picked up their Chantilly cream cake this last visit, just to try. They sell it in small, medium and large. It comes with fresh berries on it. The larger ones might have more of the cream inside. There's a huge selection of produce here and a lot of unique items. Does your local grocery store have whole jackfruits? I doubt it, but they had two during my recent visit. No price nearby so I can't say what they cost. Still, it seemed like a fun option. I love rainier cherries and they had some organic ones. Again though, no price by them. I had to ask someone just to make sure they aren't ridiculously high. I ended up buying a bag - love them! They sell plenty of prepared foods, have a salad bar, an olive bar and more. It's a fun store to check out for sure. Having Prime gets you discounts too!

Organic, local items and produce. Kind owner. When we were there we saw a family come in with their young toddler. He immediately welcomed them and said I saved this for you! And it was a bag of unpackaged potatoes and a little empty basket on their produce shelf for him to go unpack. He was delighted and went over to do his big boy job. So cute! Everyone was very friendly. A true gem!!!!!! We will be back again when we are in the area & I won't be bringing any food with us, knowing this place is here!

They carry dairy products from a farm across the street, local grains, cheeses, and bulk maple syrup from farms upstate. Beautiful bulk and produce sections. Hidden juice/smoothie bar in the back! I have watched this Co-op evolve over many years. They had some growing pains in the past (seems like any of the negative reviews are over 10 years old), but they must have taken feedback seriously, and consistently re-blossomed. They are now, again, my favorite place to find healthy food and a wonderful sense of community. Whole Foods is handy, but not cheap, and cannot compete with the amount of in-season local food available here. I love that we can have this option to support local farms, and keep our money in our regional community.

Best in the Valley - And It's Not Even Close…read more Just made my second trip to Valley Greens with my wife (a high school special education teacher) and our two ESA Golden Retrievers, Ella and Thor--and once again, they absolutely delivered. I make the trip all the way from Shelton, CT to Peekskill, NY just to come here, and every mile is worth it. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is spot on. With its retro-inspired charm and the feel of an old-school general store, Valley Greens strikes the perfect balance between nostalgic comfort and modern convenience. I came back specifically for their kief, and I still can't get over the top-tier quality, fantastic pricing, and how genuinely friendly and knowledgeable the staff is. You just don't find this kind of consistency and care everywhere. Valley Greens has made a forever loyal customer out of me. My family and I will now be making bi-weekly or monthly trips to this shop from Shelton--because when you find a place this good, you stick with it. If you're anywhere within driving distance, do yourself a favor and stop by. You won't regret it. --Alexander DeMarco

I love their self serve bins of bulk ingredients especially the nooch! Iykyk! The cold refrigerator offers an abundance of healthy options, love their plant based vegan products such as yogurts, milks and cheeses. Found my favorite jackfruit brand of frozen ingredients.

During our…read morechat, she highly recommended MOM'S Organic Market and we went not too long after to check it out. We must have passed it a few times when we are on route 17. It's a little hard to miss, however you can see it once you've entered the shopping center. Family owned and operated since 1987. Think of Whole Foods, much less busy, not a whole lot of rushing (which is a good thing) and you take your time to browse around the smaller store. The quiet and calm was cool, for a Thursday evening, not too shabby. We came across a lot of products we haven't seen before. Great options from a vast majority of gluten free to bring your own containers for pasta to help reduce waste. Plenty of signs to look at and read what we can do to be proactive with our bodies, lifestyle and the environment. I loved knowing this was a smaller scale. We accidentally forgot our reusable bags, however bought a new MOM'S insulated bag. Until next time, we will be back!

This was an odd one. I've been visiting a lot of the kosher establishments in this general area for…read moremonths now (disclaimer - I am not kosher), and one of the big takeaways is that it's very clear that these places are catering to a clientele that doesn't have a lot of experience in more mainstream variations of these businesses, if that makes sense. Nowhere is that clearer than at Rise. One of the prevailing themes of the kosher restaurants/stores is that they try to jam in as many different concepts as possible as a courtesy to their customers, which actually makes sense - if you're kosher, you want a one-stop shop so you don't have to spend tons of time searching around for five items in five different stores. Another example is the recently departed Pomona Pizza on 202, which combined sushi and pizza - this was logical to every kosher person I spoke with, and blew the minds of every non-kosher person. Rise's variation on this is to combine what amounts to a GNC-esque vitamin/nutrition store with an acai bowl place. Anyone who's been to, say, a Playa Bowl knows the business model - you go in and order a bowl or a smoothie, and they make it right there, usually with some beachy/tropical vibes throughout the space. My only background on Rise was a quick perusal of their website before I drove the five minutes over. If you're not kosher and/or part of that community, this is located in a very hardcore section. The area I work in on 202 is pretty hybrid, but other than a few employees I saw, everyone else was Orthodox or close to it. I stuck out like a sore thumb, but honestly that's true in pretty much every social situation so it was fine. But your mileage may vary. I was definitely expecting an actual acai or smoothie place, but this was...hard to explain. Unless you happened to notice a very subtle, small refrigerated section by the door and an equally unobtrusive menu board, you would absolutely think this was just a vitamin store or pharmacy. I wasn't sure I had the right place even having looked at the menu, and was only confident once I'd given my order and same was processed. Everyone was perfectly nice to me but I'd say not quite as friendly as I'm accustomed to elsewhere. I ordered the berry acai bowl ($14). The prep area is way in the back away from the customers so I really don't know how the ingredients are laid out, etc. I'm not sure how much that truly matters, but it was a little odd for my perspective to get the bowl without seeing the work that went into it. The bowl came out very quickly (helped that literally nobody else was in there for a smoothie or bowl) but the taste was definitely bland. As you can see from the attached, there are no berries in it, which I think is because they accidentally made me the Dragon Bowl instead. I honestly didn't study the menu enough to immediately correct this, but still - not ideal. This actually came up for me at the BBQ place down the street too - a lot of these items are noticeably dry and desperately need something to moisten the food. I've never been to an acai place where the bowls didn't automatically include some type of drizzle (usually peanut butter or nutella for the ones I usually like), and the overall product suffers as a result. I'm also not sure why the granola is served separately in a little condiment container, but having that included as an interior layer of the bowl would have helped a lot here with texture; since it's not, you have to awkwardly pour it over all of the toppings and then figure out a way to mix it in without spilling some of the contents over the sides. The price point is a little high, but a lot of the kosher places are inflated in that regard (as another Pomona Pizza example, they charged an absurd $9 for a salmon/avocado roll, which would have been $5 or $6 in NYC) so it's not necessarily crazy for the immediate area. I'd also note that it's very difficult to find acai bowl options up here - there's an interesting one in Haverstraw that I'm aware of, and I'm guessing New City has some offerings as well - so if you really have a hankering and can't venture more than a few miles, you could do worse. But this was honestly not worth it for me, and I doubt I'd be back.
