Old Fashioned Fruit & Veg in Boise has three locations. Two in Boise, and one in Kuna. I have…read morevisited both Boise locations. Last year, I visited the location on Cloverdale Road. I thought it was nice. Last week, I visited the location on Broadway Avenue. It's far exceeded my expectations! The variety and quality of the fruit and vegetables was outstanding. It is the best produce stand I have seen in Idaho. I spent $35 on fresh produce, including morel mushrooms, local purple asparagus, plums, strawberries, Rainer cherries, and several apple varieties. I forgot to take a picture of the strawberries, which were the best I've tasted in ages. The last time I saw produce this outstanding was at one of my favorite businesses in Washington state. That business gets a lot of their fruits and vegetables from Charlie's Produce, as does Fred Meyer's. As it turns out, so does Old Fashioned Fruit & Veg. If you're a produce nerd like me, that will mean something to you. The employees were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Open daily from 9 AM to 7 PM. Highly Recommended!!! P.S. if you look at all of the photos, the first 12 of the 92 were posted by someone else. The remaining 80 photos + the ones below were taken by me on 6/10/23.

Amazing fruit stand, but it has the worst customer service team. I've been shopping here for my…read morefruits and veggies for years now and until these last few months, the lady behind the cash register is absolutely rude, obnoxious and condescending. I've never been spoken to like this while purchasing fruits and vegetables before. Ask a single question and get an ear full of attitude. If you don't like working there, then just quit. Don't take it out on the loyal and returning customers! Nancy B. was right, very grumpy employees.

When I moved to Idaho, it was with hopes that the only time I'd ever be reminded of Detroit would…read morebe during a Chrysler ad when I couldn't fast-forward through a Monday Night Football commercial break. So I felt a brick in the pit of my stomach the first time I strolled in to Stonehenge Produce and spied bottles of Faygo® Red Pop nudged in between the Sioux City Sarsaparilla and a small-batch root beer in their soda coolers. Folks, Faygo® is the reason for the downfall of society. Case in point? The Insane Clown Posse. But if one looks beyond the Faygo® - and the perpetual blanks on the shelves of Stonehenge's Shaker-style pie cabinet - there's a lot to like about Stonehenge Produce. And although this location on Overland pales in comparison to the original Stonehenge white barn on Fairview, the Overland Stonehenge does a fair job of providing locally- or regionally-sourced produce, dairy, eggs, meats, and treats, to residents of Boise's southeast side. Such services are of particular utility between Halloween and April, when the farmers markets are hibernating, leaving Stonehenge as one of the only places to procure farm-fresh eggs. And for those trying their hand at cheesemaking, Stonehenge carries Cloverleaf whole milk and Natural Farm Fresh raw milk. I also take out-of-towners to Stonehenge for local honey, spice blends, pastas, and jellies. My main issues with Stonehenge include the remarkably short shelf life of their produce (my bosc pears liquefied within two days of purchase), and their lack of fresh cuts of meat (all local meats at Stonehenge are frozen). I can overlook the Faygo®. But if ever a Detroit-style coney island opens up in Boise, consider my bags packed. *** CASH OR CHECK ONLY ***

When my fiance and I travel, we often try and find a bakery with gluten free options to try. This…read moreis one of our TOP favorites on our list! The prices are very reasonable and they have many options for both gluten full and gluten free. I tried the scone and he tried the banana bread. One of the yummiest scones I have ever had! The server was very sweet and the space had a good amount of seating! Parking was street parking from what I saw.

I couldn't sleep last night so of course I decided to do some research on some local bakeries in…read moreour area. I am always down for something sweet! I have driven by this shop a million times but never got the chance to make it in. After checking out all their photos and goodies off their website, making my way in today was a must. The shop is very small and intimate. You are immediately greeted by all the goodies as soon as you walk in. Colorful macarons, the cutest cheesecakes and beautifully displayed scones and muffins. The display case is nice and bright, allowing you to be able to see the details and coloring of each macaron. The pretty piping on the cheesecake. The fun layers of the cakes. It was hard not to want one of each thing out of the case. It was our first visit for my daughter and I. As a new customer, you're trying to absorb everything about this store. You want to look at all your options! The gal that initially was going to help us pretty much just stood there and stared at us. Didn't really talk to us. Didn't ask if we had any questions. She had the most unpleasant look on her face. It honestly made me feel so unwanted and uncomfortable to be at the shop. I offered to let another customer go ahead of us so she wasn't just standing there waiting for us to order something. The second customer also needed some time. Finally a gentleman came in and she got him some coffee started. Another gal was working and she helped us. At that point, I was so turned off about getting anything but we were already there so we decided to grab a few things. My daughter and I decided to share a 6 pack of macarons. We snagged lemon, birthday cake, coffee, chocolate, creme brulee and cookies and cream as our flavor choices. She also got a red velvet cheesecake for us to share after dinner tonight. On our ride home, we broke that box of macarons open and had to try them all. The lemon was sweet and tangy, I love the lemon custard in the middle. Birthday cake reminds me of a pink frosted animal cookie. The chocolate was my favorite! Very chocolate forward and sweet. Coffee reminded me of a vanilla latte in cookie form. Cookies and cream was much like cookies and cream ice cream. More cream forward and less chocolate cookie. Creme brulee had sugar toasted on top which created a slight bitterness to the cookie but it was balanced with how sweet the cookie was. All 6 macarons were fabulous! I look forward to having the red velvet cheesecake after dinner tonight. I like that there are so many gluten free options at this bakery. I adore how petite and prettily decorated the pastries were. I appreciate that this joint is local as I love supporting local businesses. But, first impressions are so huge for me and my first impression of their customer service wasn't there for me. You can push out great products all you want but how you make someone feel during their purchase can make or break your business. As fantastic as my macarons were, all I can think about was how uncomfortable I was when I was just being stared at. Macarons and cheesecake can be purchased at a few joints in our valley. I'm happy I got to enjoy some goodies with my daughter but I'm going to go support another local business that will actually make me feel like a valued customer and not a bother.

Lark & Larder is a Boise neighborhood market that opened in October 2018. Located in a nondescript…read morestrip mall, it offers "local and regional products from farmers, producers, artists and makers." Although Lark & Larder is within close walking distance of my home, I am embarrassed to share that I visited for the first time on 7/24/21. It is no exaggeration to say it was life-changing. I love the the Boise Farmer's Market (BFM) which reopened their "walk-through" at the end of May. It is open on Saturdays from 9 AM to 1 PM. The summer before last, I visited the market fairly regularly, but this summer I haven't gone once. Imagine my surprise when I learned Lark & Larder carries items from many of my favorite BFM vendors. I was elated! Lark & Larder's vendors include: Acme Bread City Peanut Kelley Orchards Fiddlers Green Farm Purple Sage Farm Ohana No-Till Farm Ferranti Fresh Pasta Brush Creek Creamery Kimberly's Best Ballard Family Cheese Mountain Valley Farmstead McIntyre Pastures Irish Dexter Grass Fed Beef Malheur River Meats Fairweather Fish Morning Star Acre The Chocolat Bar MFT Sauces Zursun Idaho Heirloom Beans Peaceful Belly/Stack Rock Cidery I was so excited that I forgot to take pictures of the two pints of Fiddlers Green Cherry and Sungold Tomatoes I bought ($4.50 each). The cherry tomatoes were the best I've eaten in years. I loved the Sungold too, though they had a much more subtle flavor. I bought snack sized bags of Roots Potato Chips, a "farm to fork" product from a small, family farm in Aberdeen, Idaho. I got one of each of the three flavors available: Idaho Russet Sea Salt, Mild Jalapeño, and Sea Salt & Vinegar ($1.29 each). All three flavors were excellent! Now I'm on the hunt for the Barbecue flavor. I bought Kelley Orchards "The Ultimate Mix" ($20), a 20 ounce bag of dried fruit that includes Pears, Pluots, Plums, White Peaches, Yellow Peaches, Fuji and Granny Smith Apples. I've bought different varieties of their dried apple rings before, but this is the first time that I've purchased "The Ultimate Mix." I love that it has no additives and no preservatives. Delicious! Olympia Provisions is an Artisan Charcuterie business out of Portland, Oregon. Their products are hard to find in Idaho. Lark & Larder carries a nice variety of them. I scored their last packet of OP Uncured Pork Frankfurters ($10.99). If you order them directly from the company, you'll pay $15, not including shipping. I noticed that on a number of other items, Lark & Larder charges considerably less than you would pay if buying directly from the vendors' website. For example, one of the Ballard cheeses I liked up was $4 less a pound. I don't know how they manage to offer those kinds of prices, but it is all the more reason to shop there. Location: 233 N Orchard St. Boise Hours: Tuesday through Friday - 10 AM to 6:30 PM Saturday 10 AM to 6 PM Sunday 11 AM to 3 PM Highly Recommended!!!
