AVOIDDDDD It…read morehonestly pains me to have to even write this, because it truly goes against my nature of blasting a small business online and being "tattle-tale-y" in general.In October, I came in to buy CBD (my usual place is far away) and some essential oils. When I got there, I explained to the employee that I was looking for a mild CBD to help me relax, for a calming vibe, etc. I made it crystal clear the last thing I wanted was anything psychoactive as I have a heart condition, and other health concerns. He recommended a specific brand they had, and assured me it was non psychoactive and safe. I took it and went about my day. An hour or so later while eating dinner I began to fully hallucinate. I didn't know where I was, I was not fully conscious and It almost seemed like I was watching myself from outside of my body. I didn't know where I was, how to communicate, etc. (I don't smoke, but am actually a big supporter of the legalization of marijuana products in general ) I was essentially- fully hallucinating. I told my husband I needed to go to the ER and because we have a child who was trying to sleep, we had to call an ambulance. The Hospital treated me and I was tested, my urine came back positive for very very high amounts THC. Turns out, the brand he gave me is a synthetic CBD which causes full psychoactive effects. There are dozens of complaints with the FDA, people have been hospitalized, and I just heard from two friends that this happened to them or a loved one. I called the company the next day and this is where it gets shady, they told me that this particular item was pulled from the shelves a long time ago, they were absolutely shocked to hear this store still sold it. They also assumed it was expired and asked me for the batch number and expiration date and guess what ..... nothing on the bottle ! They said the stickers are on every bottle, so do with that what you will... My husband called the store after the incident and explained what happened, and at first they were apologetic and said they would remove it from the shelves. Thankfully, my insurance covered mostly the whole visit (it was thousands of dollars, if they did not cover it I would be out thousands) but I do have an ambulance fee and copay, which they agreed to pay for and said to call them back when we had the bill. Guess what? That was a lie. My husband tried calling them all week and they clearly screened his number, so today he called from my phone and they picked up and when they realized it was him they yelled "Go Fuck Yourself!!" and told him to not call back. I really don't want this to happen to anyone else, I don't trust that they even removed the items from the shelves, so please BE CAREFUL. Go spend your money elsewhere, other small businesses that actually care about the well-being of their customers, not this place. I am not trying to wine, or play the victim, honestly I just want to warn you all! I am considering getting legal representation, as I have documentation of everything.

Meh. Good:…read more-There are not many stores in this neighborhood that offer these kinds of products. Bad: - Small - Overpriced - Bad and limited selection of products - some products are past expiration (i do not know to what extent) I am a big consumer of health food & products with natural ingredients and minimal chemicals. Naturally I got tired of ordering online and decided to hunt for local spot. Unfortunately, I live in an area that doesn't have people who frequent places like this. I've walked into this place a couple of times. Each time I came in looking for something that health food stores generally carry and came out empty handed. For one, the place is a little dusty, I picked up a bottle off the shelf that was past the expiration date and definitely overpriced. The selection is meek and not up-to-date with any of the newer products or brands. Their personal care section is- frankly, pathetic and carries a lot of the fake natural brands, and nothing of good selection. The only thing okay about this store is that they do carry some good tea and honey (though also overpriced). They also have some essential oils, but the oils are also overpriced and the guy behind the counter tried to swindle me into buying a $30 dollar 1/2 oz bottle of peppermint oil when the $8 bottle of Aura Cacia Peppermint oil is just fine (yet still overpriced). I'm not writing this store off for good, but i am not going to re-visit until they get their act together.

Little do they know I never had to pass TSA security to get this dark and natural of a tan.

It's locally owned and it seems like a lot of the stores merchandise is made locally as well. Like I said I don't know much about the cosmetics but the store does smell pretty good lol. Both times I have been there the ladies behind the counter have been very helpful and gracious. If you have any questions they are happy to help. Its just a small store but they have a lot of items that are perfect for gifts. It's always important to support locally owned businesses so give them a shot. They will wrap anything you buy which is also very convenient and was done in only a few minutes.

***IF YOU WANT A QUALITY EXPERIENCE GO HERE!!! ****…read more This store is literally top notch!! The store itself is set up so nicely. It's so clean, bright and so inviting. The products are insane. The variety they have is by far the best - hey have things I've never seen before!! The workers there are genuinely A1. By far the sweetest & most knowledgeable staff. I've been there twice and both experiences have been lovely. Every time anyone comes in - the staff stops and will greet you with such a great energy - it instantly brightens your day. The staff asked me things about my preferences, previous experiences and what experience I was looking for. Even though I'm a pretty pro smoker - they gave me such great tips and helped me make a truly informed purchase. I also loved how they encouraged me to try each product I purchased in order to be sure it worked. I can't tell you how much money I've lost from sketchy stores and their made up policies. To wrap it up : these guys are legit and are actually really good all around. Give them a try and don't forget your ID!

I have been part of other food coops in Brooklyn. Yup, that one that is often mocked in the NYT. (…read moreYou can mock it but they built a multimillion dollar business so mock it all you want the hippies built a sustainable model for a grocery store with lots of good organic options.) Thirty years ago people thought we all joined a cult in these food coops. Yup that's right. Usually you join a food coop group with a work commitment to keep the project going, then you get a box of veggies or groceries weekly or so. Fast forward to the present many things food related are a club of sorts. Turns out its not so crazy to join a group and get special food needs met and its also not so crazy to work a bit for it. Anyways Purple Dragon is a food coop, like a buying club, not so much a CSA or community supported agriculture. Although i could be wrong... correct me please. I have been on and off part of this group for 5 years. When i am part of it, I like the affordable box of veggies. There is a good amount of fruit, salad items and veggies to cook. When i come off the subscription its mainly when I cook less in the summer or when i go out of town. The cons. They often include this crazy handout that is crammed with info which i dont read. My eyes are pretty bad. Sometimes you get rutabaga... not my favorite. Also ground cherries are weird. You only get what they give you. This could be a con or a pro. I dont mind being assigned my veggies and fruit but sometimes i do want to buy asian veggies. The pros. Great lettuce. Great organic produce. Often it was boston bib. And often its organic romaine. Great tomatoes and organic bananas that taste amazing. They have it in many towns in the central NJ area like South Orange snd Maplewood.

Purple Dragon is essentially a coordinated bulk buying group for organic fruits and vegetables…read more There are groups (15 people) in many locations in NJ and NY, and you pick up a mixed box of organic fruit and vegetables every other week - the day depends on the group you're in. Just about everything you get will be cheaper and much fresher (and last longer) than your local Whole Foods or supermarket. Because the group prioritizes local organic produce but is not a farm CSA, the mix of produce you get is more varied and useful (you'll get some fair-trade bananas and Florida grapefruit along with those local apples and squash). The people (in my group at least) are consistently nice. Couldn't recommend this group more to anybody looking to make a healthy lifestyle easy and enjoyable. http://www.purpledragon.com/
