The second time I had to do it all myself, for both me and my sister, and I got told I was being greedy for buying two load,s, even though we were sharing with other family members, too. They shamed me, patently refused to give me some of what they gave the people ahead of me double amounts of and which they gave to some people behind me in line, too. Told me I was greedy and selfish. I got mocked for crying and was told that I should have known better than to be so selfish and they laughed when some of my food got stolen. The veggies were mostly okay, though. The grapes were all rotten. The third time I went, years later, I got one load and they gave me most of the things they gave other people but the volunteer handing out the paper towels literally threw them at me and said "I guess you have to get every free thing you can!" They gave me several boxes of dates. The veggies were good. The fourth time everything was rotten except a few only semi okay veggies. Less than 7 lbs total. I would have gotten a better deal from the grocery store. They were definitely playing favorites among both known people and for other reasons. The fifth and last time I went we ordered ahead and they were just going to load us up. They only loaded up for one family but three of us came. Then, after a lot of arguing, they grudgingly gave us three rolls of paper towels and two boxes of dates and called it good. I hear very good things about this organization. So, I am thinking it is more about the volunteers they happen to get in certain neighborhoods. The first time we went, we drove pretty far out of our way and it was great. The other times were all in the Sacred Heart Parking lot except one time when it was nearer to this area of town but not quite that close.

    Cheap Veggies!!!! I love Borderland's amazing produce rescue program. On a Saturday schedule at…read morevarious community organizations in Tucson and Phoenix volunteers coordinate the veggie pickups. You pay $10 cash and take your own box, crate, or some grocery bags and load up 60 pounds of fruits and vegetables. Each Saturday they have a different assortment of vegetables which is posted on their Facebook and website. Usually between 7am and 10am. Program runs during produce season, November through August. Produce available, from my understanding, is whatever they couldn't market and is tagged to be trashed. Perfectly good stuff, some of the peppers may be funny shapes with a few blemishes, and some things may be closer to their spoiling point, but for the most part it's perfect. This weekend we went to the pickup at St. Francis in the Foothills church on Swan and East River. For $10 you were allowed to take 37 Roma tomatoes, 4 butternut squash, 11 pickling cucumbers, 3 mini watermelons, 11 yellow bell peppers, 11 orange bell peppers, 11 yellow squash, and 1 bag mini sweet bell peppers. The variety and amount of each veggie you can take always changes, but it always equals about 60 pounds. We almost always split our box with a friend because it is too much for our household of two. Totally worth it if you can get yourself up and out of the house early on a Saturday.

There are weeks you can just drive up and make your selection immediately and then there are times you have to wait in a long line and when you get to the front your options are very limited. Either way they post their menu on Facebook every week and the selection is still pretty great. All of the staff are always upbeat and very friendly and helpful. I'm grateful that they are finding a way to continue doing this!

It's concentrated and a bit gritty, a get-in-&-get-out, "I need my fix" sort of farmers' market. That's not to say there aren't amenities. There's usually a musical group. There's always samples of a recipe featuring produce that's in season. There's often an activity; for example this week (3/10/10) there's the annual seed exchange. Also, they accept credit, debit, and EBT cards, as well as WIC Cash Value Vouchers. The market, located in the caliche lot next door to the School for the Deaf and Blind, features reasonably priced produce grown at the Food Bank's Nuestra Tierra Garden and Marana Farm. But there's also vendors offering their home-growns, a couple of vendors selling eggs and always jams, honey, baked goods, and coffee. Truth is I prefer this market, with it's too-close traffic and bare-bones caliche lot. On Thursday afternoons, when people gather here, it's all about the food -- getting it local, getting it fresh and wholesome, and getting it at a fair price. Now isn't that what a farmers' market should be?

Sam was incredibly helpful in creating a vegan-friendly, protein-packed meal. Most places don't allow protein substitutes, but she suggested using chickpeas in their teriyaki rice box, and let me tell you, it was delicious and satiating. The presentation of the food is what you'd call eye candy, and the portions are substantial. This place is definitely worth the visit, a true hidden gem in Tucson. Thanks again Sam!

If you just type in their address, it doesn't put you in the right spot. You have to park in the parking lot off of Main Street and then walk around to get to the entrance. Today, I thought I'd pick up a few things for lunches this week and some wellness shots for my husband and I was coming from an unfamiliar direction and I was lost and sent off course down 2nd Street since my last review, I've tried some of their made to order smoothies and boy. What a treat. I like the peanut butter and jelly protein smoothie very much. They've updated the look of their menu so it's much better lit when it was previously written out by hand and now it's just much more professional with pictures. The location is very small, but there is seating and a microwave, to heat up and enjoy any of the prepped meals out of the refrigerated cases. I feel that their prepared meals are generous size and usually have trouble eating the whole thing and try to just eat half, saving the other half for lunch the next day. I believe each entrée is $11 and they're made in the morning and they put on their expiration date so if you buy it take it home you know you'll need to eat it in a few days. The labels on the meals are color-coded, and so if you are looking for certain types of meals, look on their website and I'll give you a color key based on the type of diet you're following on which meals to pick. Since I am allergic to celery and fennel, I know that those ingredients are none of their meals and so I know I can safely eat without worrying about allergies. Taking that into account, I love their chipotle meatloaf; a dish that typically has celery mixed in. I've encouraged my friends and they have all agreed that Warfuel kitchen is a great spot for people who interested in getting freshly prepared meals to go.

Our server Nate was both knowledgeable and welcoming, with quick service and the correct orders coming out. We didn't feel rushed and really enjoyed the patio ambiance and taking out time to enjoy the food and the vibe. The food was delicious - we each got a steak, ribeye and tenderloin and the miso carrots and fries for sides. The carrots stole the show for the sides, beautifully caramelized and flavorful. The steaks were on point, the crust on the tenderloin was incredible and the quality of the meat was great. The rib eyes were a little overdone, which was a bummer and the only detractor from an otherwise stellar meal. Looking forward to coming back again!

The inside has an industrial-style vibe and feels a little chaotic at first, but don't let that fool you -- the food was amazing. The service was excellent. We waited about 20 minutes for a table, and the food took a little while to come out, but it was absolutely worth it. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful. The standout for us was definitely the fish sandwich! We'll definitely be back to try the burger next time.
