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.

I think i heard someone call him Will. I have been in the food line and overheard him heavily flirting with females in front of their boyfriends on 4 separate occasions. There is one in particular he has heavily flirted with in front of her boyfriend and even has gone as far as ask her out. Her boyfriend is one of the main volunteers there and I have seen staff target him on several occasions But I have witness them ban people if they lodge complaints against staff. He does not do this with the ones that are single. I have been going there long enough to know a few people and recognize most. If this is part of the new bible of which they preach, I dont want anything to do with it.

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. The kitchen is well equipped and well labeled. There is a five burner cooktop in the center island which is ample enough to handle most cooking tasks. It is a multi-use facility that provides space for classes for the local schools and outdoor programs dealing with gardening. 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.

They also like a good conversation so it was nice to talk and learn more about the town. At the time they were having a 50% off sale for the whole store excluding the $1 rack they had outside the store. (For a $1, it's already the best deal!) Out of that $1 rack, I was able to put together the cutest outfit and most were like new if not brand new. Also had a lot of nice brand and quality clothes. They have so many unique things for Halloween, and the coolest vintage jackets and bags. Will be my go to spot whenever I drive back down. There's something for everybody here!

I'm grateful for the sliding fee, which made it accessible to make those appointments. I've only had to have 2 pain pills since these treatments. I could cry, the relief has been liberating. I'm also getting support for grief and gut health. Acupuncture is amazing and i really like this shop and the people there. Shelby is incredibly knowledgable, caring, and effective.
