I paid $6.00 for one of their watermelons and it was way too OVERripe! I had to throw more than…read morehalf of it out and am NOT happy. They should have thrown these out instead of selling food that wasn't fit and ripping people off. I also asked the lady working in the vegetable stand if their produce was organic and she stated it wasn't. I won't buy any foods from the dirty dozen list unless they are organic. I am glad she was honest about it but I am not subjecting my loved ones to the risk of cancer because of pesticide laden food. I think all growers who care about their customers would be focusing on growing foods that are free of toxic pesticides.

Horrocks Market, Lansing, Michigan…read more WHOA! This place is HUGE! We walked into Horrocks Market expecting a market, and what we found was practically a small city devoted to food, flowers, gardening, and just about anything else you can imagine. The variety is incredible. Fresh produce, prepared foods, a bakery, flowers (including some gorgeous exotic varieties), gardening supplies, paper goods, wind chimes, specialty items, and so much more. You can wander around for ages and still discover something you missed. I even counted the soups, and they had around 36 different varieties available to take home or enjoy there. THIRTY-SIX! At that point, choosing a soup becomes a serious life decision. There is also plenty to tempt your taste buds, with freshly prepared food and all kinds of goodies. The popcorn-making area caught our attention, and the popcorn looked wonderful. The only catch? You had to buy a gigantic bag for about $8. We were a group of four, not a family preparing for winter hibernation, so we passed. The cinnamon rolls looked equally tempting, very much in the Cinnabon style, but at around $9 for one, we decided that our sweet tooth could survive without one. Coming from the Chicago area, I found many of the prices surprisingly high. There is certainly a lot to choose from, but your wallet may need a little pep talk before you go shopping! One of the nicest surprises was the atmosphere on Friday. There was a live band playing, and lots of people had gathered to listen. The music was free, and you could grab a beer, a glass of wine, or another drink and simply sit back and enjoy the scene. It was a fun, lively atmosphere, although the music was a little loud for casual conversation. What impressed me most was the sheer variety. This isn't just a place to buy groceries. It's somewhere to explore, browse, grab a bite, admire the flowers, discover unusual products, and enjoy a little entertainment along the way. My advice? Definitely visit, but go for the experience rather than planning to fill your shopping cart. There is so much to see and enjoy, even if you decide to keep your wallet firmly in your pocket. Horrocks Market is an experience all on its own. Come curious, leave yourself plenty of time to explore, and don't say I didn't warn you about the size of the place!

The website has some great history of the business as well as some fun historic photos. Nate and I stopped in recently to check out their planters and hanging baskets and were happily surprised to see that the hanging baskets were on sale. We paid about $50 for two, which is what we paid for one (larger) basket at another local greenhouse recently. The store is full of everything you could ever need for gardening and landscaping. They have so many plants and flowers! I wish they had some better signage / information as we had to ask which items would be best for shade vs sun etc. I have seen other greenhouses that indicate which plants are native and other information that's helpful. We were only there for a short visit so I didn't explore too much. They have a lot of patio furniture here as well, and looked like some sales going on. When we're in the market for new outdoor furniture, this will be my first stop. There is a handy checkout outside near the garden center. The employees we interacted with were all polite and friendly.

I was aware that they have bulk items like laundry soap, dish soap, shampoo, lotion, etc. but there's so much more than that, too. I was overwhelmed by all the different products! They have bulk pantry staples (dry beans, grains, oils, spices, even pasta), a huge refill station with everything previously mentioned and more, secondhand clothing, reusable items for home, cat toys, beauty products, plastic-free items, even local cheese and butter. I had so much fun looking around and ended up buying a travel size dry shampoo and some natural deodorant that comes in a glass jar. The brand is Little Seed Farm and it's my new favorite deodorant! I'd been trying different plastic-free options over the years and none even come close to this one.
