Apparently everything is from local small farms around San Diego and possibly a few things owner made. A lot of items didn't have pricing which for me prevented me from buying more but I actually just went shopping elsewhere before stopping in so I would've bought more. The fruit and veggies are not all nice and shinny like at the grocery stores, these items look to be straight from a farm imo. Don't expect to find everything in perfect shape or that you don't have to look through the fruits or veggies and if you know, you know! Their items were a bit high but it's worth it when it comes to our struggling farmers!!! I'll buy more from them from here & out.

We stop by The Fruit Stand every week for our fruit and vegetable run, and it has become a beloved…read morepart of our routine. They consistently carry some of the best-quality produce currently available from San Diego and the surrounding areas, thoughtfully curated with real care. Misses are rare, and when something isn't right, they always make it right. What really sets this place apart is the knowledgeable team. They can tell you not just what something is, but where it's from, why it's special, and even how best to prepare it if it's new to you. They know which watermelon varietals are sweetest (and why), which tomatoes are best for different uses, and how to guide you toward the best choice of the day. We also appreciate the simplicity of the space. It's clear the focus is on quality produce rather than unnecessary overhead or décor that doesn't add to flavor or nutrition. We come in knowing our weekly staples, and we always look forward to discovering a surprise treat or seasonal treasure to add to the basket. We recently lived in Spain for a year and deeply miss the fruterías found on every corner, places that genuinely support daily health and well-being. In the U.S., truly good produce can be harder to find, with so much emphasis on mass production and appearance over flavor and nutrition. The Fruit Stand comes as close as we've found to that European produce experience. We're grateful this place exists and grateful for the care they put into what they offer. Thank you for being here--and we'll see you next week.

So I was out shopping yesterday at my local organic grocery. Looking over in the produce section I…read moresaw what appeared to be collard greens. Yes collards, but HUGE.

Unbelievable and delicious, I hope to find more from Joe Heger farms in the future.

I will make my Costco run and then come in here on my way home to support local business. They have been accepting credit card all this time but when I went in a few days ago the guy tells me I have to use cash or buy something else in order to pay with a card. I'm sorry but no thanks. I don't carry cash and I'm annoyed. You own a business, don't charge me extra to pay with a card. Not to mention I made the extra stop with a sleeping baby who woke up when I took him inside (turns out all for nothing). I will be getting my avocados from Costco now.

While I understand the effort to offer fresh, locally sourced produce, the prices feel a bit high, especially considering that this side of Indio is more lower-middle class. Perhaps they could consider lowering prices on produce that's slightly going bad to make it more accessible to everyone!

I have tried calling them to ask a question and their phone number does not work, I recommend looking on yelp and making sure they are open. The employees there are absolutely nice and helpful. They let you know when their next shipment is coming depending on the certain item you are looking for. If you haven't been here yet, you should check out this cute and quiet farmers outlet.

It was a perfect source for our food runs since we stayed at an AirBnb nearby. It's pretty dark inside where there is a wall of produce shelves with vegetables like cilantros, cebolla (green onions), rábanos (radishes), and yams. There's plenty of fruit like apples, bananas, mangos, pera (pears) and kiwi. You can find an assortment of household items from toilet paper to cleaning products to canned goods. Spices, chips and ice cream bars are also available. We picked up some fruit and toiletries on our previous stop. Next door is a bakery too, so your stop here won't be in vain if you can't find anything. The store is at traffic intersection and taxis are parked outside, so it's fairly convenient and easy to spot. If we visit again, we'll probably stop by!

While Healing from the Ground Up is a CSA, it's the farm stand in Alpine where the real action is…read more About a month ago, I was looking for a reliable source for fresh organic produce not too far from home, and I found all that and more at the Healing from the Ground Up farm stand. Every Friday and Saturday, Taj opens his farm stand to the public, and it's here that you will find freshest, most delicious organic produce you've ever purchased in your life. My wife and I stop by every Saturday morning to see what Taj has, and we're always amazed at the selection, which changes from week to week depending on what's ready for harvest. Yesterday, for example, we bought broccoli, carrots, celery, lettuce, spring onions, and edible (!!) flowers. Then, Taj told us to wait a minute. He went out to his gardens and harvested some sugar snap peas for us right then and there. Oh. My. God. The sweetest, most delicious snap peas I've ever eaten. We of course bought some of those too. And that's the real beauty of going to the farm stand yourself instead of just doing a CSA box. You get to interact with Taj. He'll tell you what he loves best at the moment, and introduce you to some things you might not have otherwise tried (hello, black radish!). You'll also find fresh eggs (we have our own chickens so I don't need to buy those), lemons, and a variety of other produce. Whatever's fresh. Whatever's delicious. And if you need more of something, Taj is more than happy to go out in the garden and pick it for you. Extra bonus: the prices are very reasonable. The farm stand is currently open only on Friday from 2:30 to 5:00 PM, and Saturday from 9:30 AM to 2:00 PM. Check the website for updates or give Taj a call.

I'm not sure what's going on with this place but it used to be a great place to shop. Now when we…read morego they're constantly out of items. For example, they haven't had cottage cheese for weeks. We called and asked why on the phone and they say it's because of manufacturing issues but Albertsons, down the street has tons of it; so much so they have it on sale, so I don't think that's what's going on. Their dairy section always seems hit or miss- and it's been a miss a lot lately. Something is wrong with their ordering. There is no consistency. Another issue is with their rotisserie chickens. Most of the time they are all burnt. We've asked multiple people in the front of the store at checkout and honestly, most of them don't even know they sell chickens. It's really odd how people working in such a small store have no idea what's going on in the back of the store. And obviously no one working there seems to notice nor care that the chickens are all burnt. I don't understand how no one working there says anything. I mean, it looks a bit strange to be selling burnt chicken, no? In addition there is no consistency in the sizes of their rotisserie chicken. They used to be like 3- 3.5 lbs each. Now they're often 2 lbs and under and they're the same price. If there's going to be such a discrepancy in weight, they should be sold by the pound. Getting back to ordering, I'm not 100% sure but it seems like one of their freezers malfunctioned because they had it empty for a few days. Then all of a sudden all the ice cream that they put back in the freezer looked like it had previously melted and instead of throwing the sticky melted messy ice cream out, they just put it back for sale. I was going to buy some but I could tell that the cartons didn't look right. That is not okay. It should be counted as waste and restocked with fresh product. I don't think Tillamook would appreciate them selling their product that's obviously not up to standards. Regarding their soup bar, I have noticed in the evening, before even the local jui jitsu gym lets out next door, they are often out of multiple soups. I'm talking at like 530pm. The hot bar is often similar. Why is this not being restocked for dinner? Lastly, I just want to reiterate that although the cashiers are usually very friendly, they really should know what's going on in the back of the store. I mean, when we ask them about the soups, they should at least know that soup is sold there. They should know if they cook the chickens in- house and/ or who to speak to regarding the fresh food. They act like they've never seen the back of the store. So I suggest maybe giving them a tour when they're hired and telling them some things so that when they're the only ones customers have the opportunity to speak to, they have some knowledge of what's being sold. It was almost humourous when we asked why the chickens were always burnt and they were like, oh we sell chickens? Seriously. That's bad training. You can do better and I really want you to. I do appreciate there being a smaller grocery store here and their produce section is great. It just seems like some things are slipping a bit.
