Just found my new produce market and I'm OBSESSED…read more They have such a beautiful selection of fresh, organic fruits and vegetables, plus a huge variety of herbs, seasonings, pastas, and even local honey. The staff is super friendly, they're open every day, and y'all... two FULL bags of fruits and veggies for less than $30! Safe to say, I found my new gem. This is officially my produce market.

Green Valley Produce has been around for at least 20+ years but first time visiting after a 6 year…read moreabsence. I believe new owners and gentleman working was friendly and welcoming. I mainly visited for the fresh roasted peanuts which was the big draw here over the years. Sizes ranging from a small, medium to large bag @ $3.99/lb. The medium will get you a lb. Not sure when they were roasted but still good. Green Valley Produce is a small open store/stand offering fruits, some veggies, (no fresh herbs) and Middle Eastern spices, some vacuum-sealed meats, lentils, olive oils, dates, and some all meat puff pastry and vegetarian pies made locally. I left with some okra, yams, garlic, ginger spices, homemade beef pies...and of course, roasted peanuts. *** Overall 3.5 stars *** Pricing on fruit reasonable considering I just went to the Farmer's Market and noticed Green Valley selling the same Cara Cara oranges for 1.89/lb vs $3.89/lb which will get ya 4 oranges! I'm all for supporting small business but sheesh! Open 7 days a week from 830am - 730pm I wouldn't go out of your way to stop by unless you're wanting some roasted peanuts, reasonably-priced fruit and veggies and in the area. Support small business! Plenty of lot parking in front and located off B Street, next block over from Grocery Outlet

We were visiting a friend in the east bay and a coworker recommended us to come here for a stall's…read morecold noodles. The market isn't that big but had the usual offerings. But they did have Thai Holy Basil and my husband was excited. We can make ka prow. So we found the cold noodle stall. Ordered. The mild is not spicy at all, and the spicy was like a medium. So definitely get spicy if you want some kick. But if you plan to come here for this, either come early or somehow pre-order (although I don't know their website info). We wanted to try it first before grabbing a few more for our friends. But they told us they were "sold out" for preorders. Well that's a bummer! How are you going to market yourself if folks wander the farmers market and want to try your noodles?? Ah well, solid choice, but don't expect to be able to get a bowl! Empanadas were MEH. Mamabakehouse was a good choice if you love kouign amanns. Easy parking is a plus!

Checked out this Indian grocery store because my Uncle Yu Togo order wasn't ready yet…read more They got Indian okra and American okra $4.99/lb PG Tips black tea $6.99 for 80 tea bags or $15.99 for 240. I didn't buy any. I got Parle-G Indian crackers $2.89 for 10 pk. Another customer bought it too. It's a popular cracker. Masoor Dal 2lbs for $2.89 - split red lentils. I like to make lentil soup in my Instant Pot. I wanted to use my Visa card but it didn't work on their machine I had to pay cash boo! My total $5.78, I got .22c back.

Enter his…read moreFarm Market from SOUTHBOUND Alvarado-Niles, shortly before the bridge (which is getting replaced) up over BART. It is just after you pass Osprey. You have to slow down or you could miss his driveway. My wife thinks Ramirez is great. Sadly, the 882 rental units will boot out the last farm in Fremont. Ramirez says he will move to Union City. As of Sept. 29 Ramirez appears to be well on the way to gone. Ramirez is now operating in Union City; we bought some lovely Hatch peppers and green beans. Maybe the plan for 882 units can be improved in some ways, such as by requiring individual water meters on this new construction. I attended the study meeting on Sept. 29, and it looks to me as though the density will be moderately reduced. Folks, take a look at my attached views of Mission Peak from Litchfield Ave. on the north. One is colored as the impressionist Monet would paint it. Now, it's time to hit the "cool" button, n'est-ce pas?

In my opinion, Newark Farmers' Market (at Newpark Mall) slightly triumphs Irvington Farmers' Market…read moredue to: - number of vendors - variety of vendors - larger food selection This market presumably "stops" at 2pm with discounts presumably starting at 1250pm (or sooner). I feel the service is fairly standard across the board (of what you would expect at farmer markets and festivals). But is largely more dependent on EBT and cash. You can park at the post office, there's a small lot at the bay fair, street parking, and some folks park at the huge plaza...

This was my first time ever at this particular farmers market and I was surprised when I pulled up…read moreto see so many tents!! I decided to track my steps and it was actually a quarter mile in an oval shape. One and they had an information booth as well as a live band, at the other oval end they had some volunteers making/designing your own reusable bag- such a cute way to give back to the community. Apparently this farmers market is going plastic free soon! All defenders seem to have their own price margins and one vendor was selling each bundle of herbs for a dollar. Sadly, she was all out of basil, but had a bunch of mint, lemon leaves, and tarragon or some other parsley type leaf that I've smelled before, but never have tried to cook with. Most thunders had prices by the pound, some vendors had pre-bagged vegetables for five dollars. I've been to the San Jose farmers market and they have basically the same vendors, but their bags are three dollars a bag instead of five. A handful of the vendors here did state they were California certified Organic or USDA Organic, but it didn't seem like they washed their fruit off after they picked it. Lol just interesting to me on the presentation since their root vegetables had mud on them. I'm sure they taste good but presentation means a lot to me. Hee Nevertheless, I bought a handful of different vegetables and this delicious onion bread from a local Italian gentleman who actually makes pesto without nuts so that he's not free bakery and he can cater to those people with nut allergies!! It's a local vendor, so please check them out! I wouldn't mind checking out this farmers market again, but I'll probably go just before closing since I know they give better discounts then 10 o'clock on a Sunday morning. Hee

Currently my favorite spot to shop outside of actually going to a farmer's market…read more Reasonable prices - similar to farmer's market and less than the Marketplace. They also seem to have more turnover than the Marketplace, so it's fresher. Their organic Granny Smiths are some of the best I have had - crisp, slightly sour and super juicy. They also carry a variety of microgreens. Interesting small producers in the pantry section. The service is always friendly and efficient. Request: carry maitakes! Then I don't need to make multiple stops around the island. Easy to park around the Central/Oak area. I neglected you for a few a years but I am back!

Stopped by on a Monday evening after dinner. The store wasn't too busy this day and we remembered to take our grocery bags. Upon entering, the store was clean and well stocked. The entrance takes you through the produce sections. The veggies were standard veggies like bok choy, cabbages, root veggies etc. There were some things I was looking for that didn't have labels, just "general produce." No biggie, I know how to use my phone to scan images. The produce section also has a freezer section with frozen dumplings, buns, and other stuff. The selection was amazing. The meat department had plenty of options from poultry to beef to seafood. They also had frozen meat and poultry in ice chests. I did come for loose leaf teas and found just what I needed. Everything is really great quality and they have different jujube options. I also loved their frozen ice cream and sweets. We got the viral ice creams to try and they also had tanghulu but only the hawthorn ones. We get to the register and the cashiers were really nice. Overall the experience is great!

Sadly, they stopped offering barbecue (they did a yummy tri tip sandwich) as of 6 years ago but offer a great meat section to do at home. I picked up some short ribs and sausages and very happy with the purchase. I decided to make a coffee rub for the short ribs and after 3.25 hours (wrapped in foil) of slow baking/indirect grilling they came out amazing! To complete the meal I picked up items for a salad and some Semifreddi rosemary focaccia that I slathered in garlic butter and warmed up. So good! :) Clean environment, convenient and great local store. Small parking lot with plenty of street parking. I'll definitely return and shop again soon.
