    This wee fruit veggie and deli shop is the Heart and Soul of White Rock to me. I met Mary and Andrzej 8 years ago when we moved into the area, we were living right across from their Deli. The very first day I shopped there I was instantly put back into my childhood and I knew I was going to be friends with them one day as the atmosphere was simply electric. It woke up some hidden memories I thought I had lost for ever, I felt at home, I felt the unique and special vibes from these two strangers. I knew I would return until we became friends, now when I go there it is to breathe in the Sunshine that is missing in the majority of Humanity. Their fresh unsprayed fruit, veggies, deli meat and cheese is my/our soul food. It is one thing to buy fresh food, but it is quite another to buy something so fresh that has been touched with love, compassion and respect, you won't find anything as "natural" and hearty as the Bread Box. Every time I need a reminder loving humans still exist, which is now more often as Humanity is at Large, I visit and shop as it has become my place of let's say "soul charging station". My dear friends Mary and Andrzej, you are one of a kind and every time I walk into your place I get touched with kindness and regardless of how bad my day was, it turns out to be a beautiful day and I walk home with the sunshine in my pockets.

    Limes were $.50 each. How does this come to $16? I feel in the dark when it comes to charging. Not sure where their ethics lie.

    Best place to get fresh veggies in White Rock. The owner, Mary, is a national treasure. She brightens everyone's day.

    Always friendly service. Produce is fresh and locally sourced. Even got tips on how to prepare and cook a portobello mushroom

    * Top u-pick! *…read more We've been on a U-pick kick this summer, trying to explore the various organic options available. This farm is now at the top of our list for U-pick! Here's why: - Really feels like a family farm. A couple and their little girls were all under a sun tent waiting for u-pickers to greet you. - Peaceful. We didn't see any other u-pickers at all. It was like being in a private blueberry field! - Very friendly. The man walked us into the field and showed us where the good blueberry bushes were that were perfectly ripe and ready to be picked. None of the sending you off to the fields to search randomly for the good stuff! - Quality. The bushes are older, and produce an amazingly sweet richly flavoured berry. We enjoyed them yesterday with some of our homemade vanilla ice cream. Today they are going into a blueberry crumble - which I can't wait to sample when it finishes baking! - Ease of picking. The bushes had huge numbers of berries clumped together. They almost looked like bunches of grapes! You literally could put two hands under a clump, give it a bit of a vibration and dozens of ripe berries fall into your hands. - Farming methods. This is a certified organic farm. Not just "following practices" as many claim. Fully certified. They also are certified biodynamic. So you know it is long term sustainable. Very nice. It feels good to eat things you know have not been contaminated with pesticides, and also that are fully sustainable so they will be there for years to come. - Setting. Located in the Chilliwack Valley, but fairly close to the mountains. So you have a beautiful view of the mountains while picking. Call me crazy but somehow it didn't feel as hot as when you are in an open field with no mountains in the distance. So even though it was 28 degrees it was quite comfortable. - Price. For organic they are very reasonably priced at $2.20/lb. They took a bit off for the weight of the bucket too (80 cents) - very fair pricing. - Setup. Even though you are in the middle of a field, they have a portable water cooler so that you can wash off your hands after picking. There is a porta-potty too. But we didn't venture in there. So no comment on that! The ripe berry bushes are also covered in a clear mesh tent so that the sun still gets in, but the birds do not pick away at the ripe berries. So you enter through an opening in the mesh and totally feel outdoors, but in reality it is a semi-protected environment. The farm grows all sorts of things (carrots, beets, squash, beans, cucumbers, arugula, kale, romaine, corn, and even beef and eggs), but focuses the u-pick on berries. The other products are available from them through their farmer's market visits apparently. Overall this is just a wonderful day trip getting a bit out of the city, seeing the scenery, picking some amazingly sweet berries, and enjoying playing with the farm dog (who is very friendly as well). We'll definitely be back!
