It's fun to browse and just look around. We both 5 gallons of great paint for a big deck painting project and it looks good 2 years later. My only complaint is that the prices have increased too much over the past 6-12 months. With the economy the way it is, increasing prices is not helpful for working families. Please re-consider these price hikes-after all, people are donating items to the store!!

First and foremost, you have to remember that Value Village is not a non-profit store or business…read more While it accepts donations of used goods and partners with nonprofits, shopping in Value Village stores does not support any charity.

But considering Mother Earth falls victim to inhabitants of materialism and sadly a disposable society, my views have changed. I inquired about Value Village's donation process which aligned with my views. After a month on the sales floor, items are bundled and shipped to third world countries. My family has been sponsoring a Kenyan family and it's the right thing to do even if we eat cheap ramen to make it happen. The manager was super nice, explaining available rewards as well as discounts days! I felt the prices were fair, and an abundance of treasures awaited to find new homes. Great place to upcycle.

Recently I've been seeing GRuB volunteers in my neighborhood building free victory gardens for low income neighbors. The victory gardens are raised beds that include soil and plants provided by GRuB and paid with community donations. I was talking to some of the volunteers in passing. It turns out that each garden is 'worth' $1,000 if you're including materials, labor, and gas to transport. I'm very impressed with how many neighbors they've been able to help.

Completely in agreement with the other reviews. Grub is an excellent asset to the community. I…read morehave now been there four times for classes, both cooking and educational.

It something can be grown in this climate someone at Grub can give you pointers on how to best grow it. They have programs for veterans, school kids and home gardeners, as well as programs where a home gardener can get a raised bed for a reduced price, and in some cases for free. There are programs dealing with local, native plants as well as other types of gardening, composting and most anything to deal with pest control and how to utilize your harvest. Grub is community focused and you know it after spending a very short period of time there. Grub is the kind of asset that any community would be proud to have.
