I love supporting local small businesses in my community. Riverdale Farm has the most beautiful looking produce out of any of the local shops in the neighborhood. This is especially a welcome addition given that the nearby giant Key Food often has terrible fruit/vegetable selection, is often sold out, or the products are rotten or unripe.
I also love how RF sells other little goodies besides whole fruits and vegetables that feel like a special treat, like Halavah and Babybell Cheese, various Asian pantry goods, pomegranate arils in tiny packages and gorgeous bouquets of fresh flowers. I love stopping here on my way to visit someone and picking up something special for them.
RF is definitely not cheap, but you get what you pay for. I've never left here unsatisfied with my produce. And the folks who own the place and run the register are so sweet. read more
