There were local vendors selling food to a pediatric dentistry giving out goodie bags to kids. You had to register online prior to the event on order to obtain a ticket for a free Pumpkin.

Now, I can't forget the live music. It was great. The gentleman singing played some good blues music.

I used to like these guys. I've actually been here numerous times in the past to buy soil and…read moreplants and frequented here a bit last year and have never had a problem but today, they entered on my "do not like" list. I came here in on a soil run. I needed some potting soil I came to buy 3 bags since I know I'll need more later this year. I usually just get the bags then go inside and pay but this time I went inside first. I was met by the guy here, I'm guessing the owner. I've never really conversed much in my previous visits, I just bought what I needed and left so I never met anybody. Anyway, they had some fresh fruit in styrofoam cups on the counter and I was asking about them while buying my soil so he let me try some. Everything tasted great & fresh so I decided to buy a cup of blackberries. Paid for my soil & blackberries. He did something strange. He poured my blackberries out of the cup and into a thin plastic bag with nothing else protecting them. I was concerned but didn't ask which I regret because sure enough, some of them got mushed otw home because they were just in a thin bag on my seat. Even from the grocery stores they come in a container. Then after I paid and was on my way out, he said "I'll go get the bags you need. Just backup and I'll load them." I thought that was weird because I didn't ask for help getting my soil and have always gotten them myself all the past times I've been here. But I'm generally not a confrontational person so I just left it alone. Sure enough, he gave me the worse bag he could find on their pallet just to get rid of them. Two of the bags of soil got some green stuff at the bottom like they been sitting there way too long and one of the other bags was busted open and spilling dirt by time I made it home. These are bags I probably wouldn't have grabbed myself so I'm sure he was happy to "unload" them on somebody. I don't like dealing with aggressive people and though I used to frequent here and live relatively close by, I'm not sure I'll return. They may have just lost a return customer.

I'd rather shop here for produce items versus the grocery store.

This is mainly a Hispanic and Asian place with vendors who chose to speak Spanish to other Spanish speaking customers and ignore us English speakers. So we left to get tamales. We decided to have lunch at the Original Tamale joint and the food was absolutely delicious. The service was also great and the food options were plentiful. There's also a little sauce bar to have with your food on site. No lids for the sauce cups provided at the bar. There's plenty of outdoor and indoor seating with music playing to add to the atmosphere's enjoyment. I got quesadillas, tacos and tamales...all were great!

Contrary to its name, Animal Farm isn't quite an animal farm. They do have two sizable chicken…read morecoups, a horse, a pony, pigs, some dogs and a few other small animals on the property, but those are mostly for cultivating purposes. Animal Farm is actually a 70+-acre property complete with a permaculture center, yoga center, extensive certified organic garden of arugula, tomatoes, legumes, summer squash, sunchokes, sweet peppers, swiss chard, tomatoes, turnips and other foods that you'll find at local (including Houston) farmers markets and on the menus at several Houston and Austin restaurants - Local Foods, Haven and Sorrel Bistro, just to name a few. A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to check out Animal Farm for a tour and a seven-course farm dinner hosted along with Roots Bistro, 13 Celsius, and a few other local participants. It was a unique and educational experience in which we learned about the 20-year history of Animal Farm and its permaculture techniques directly from founders (and former Houstonians) Guita Van Woerden and husband Cas. Not only do I looked forward to attending another Animal Farm dinners (about $120 per person), but on my next visit to an Urban Harvest farmers market, I'll head straight to their booth to purchase some freshly harvested and delicious arugula and sunchokes.

Initially, I discovered Animal Farm through Urban Harvest Farmers Market (Eastside). They are…read morecertified organic and the only farm in the area that seem to be. They use permaculture principles as part of their farming practices. I admire them for what they do. Frankly, when I start my farm, I would love to utilize their techniques. I've visited the farm twice for farm-to-table dinners last year. The owners are lovely and laid-back. Both times I went, Gita offered a tour and provided a brief overview of how Animal Farm started. It was her idea and she is truly an inspiration. She had no agricultural background at all. The property is about 70 acres and only 20 acres is being used. I believe they live off the grid by using solar power. They offer a CSA program. They grow herbs and all sorts of vegetables and fruits. And also a huge variety of the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen!!! I have been buying produce from them every single time I go to Urban Harvest. Some of the vegetables are: jerusalem artichokes, cauliflower (in different colors), rainbow carrots, green onions, broccoli, arugula, romaine lettuce, beets, turnips, different radishes, bell peppers (all colors), shishito peppers, tuscano kale, dragon tongue beans, cucumbers, eggplants, all sorts of squash, etc. Some fruits: blackberries, jujubes, mulberries, a variety of tomatoes, persimmons, fijoas. I highly recommend you visit their farm in Cat Spring and check out their farm-to-table dinners. Follow them on facebook to see upcoming events. Also, you can pay them a visit at Rice University Farmers Market (every Tuesday) or Urban Harvest Eastside (every Saturday).

Northside Filipinos (and Filipino food lovers), rejoice! PINAS Asian Store in Conroe just might…read morehave everything you need. It's only 15-20min north of The Woodlands, and I am so happy it's so accessible for suburban residents like myself. They have a VAST selection of Filipino ingredients & snacks (I even found some harder to find items here), and they also offer a small selection of prepared food in their attached Tap Si Han cafe. It isn't a grand buffet, and the selection changes regularly (with the exception of lumpia and BBQ kebabs offered daily). But, it is quality over quantity... because everything we tried was delicious! *Worth highlighting: We had some of the juiciest lechon I've had anywhere in the city (pork belly style available on weekends), and our family is in love with the ube cake! I met the NICEST owners [Joel & Jen] and was helped by friendly & knowledgeable employees [shoutout to Noel for helping me carry my goodies to the car]. They have karaoke mics turned on all day, if you'd like to indulge in a little musical fun while you're dining in. They have an impressive catering menu, and you can reserve spots for a personalized/customizable "Boodle Fight" (IYKYK!!!). And in case you're wondering, the shelves were well organized and the establishment is very clean. When I'm craving Filipino cuisine, I know where to get delicious comfort food nearby! And now that I don't have to drive an hour+ into Houston to find the imported groceries I'm looking for, I plan on stopping by often. Please check them out! Mabuhay!!!

Small family establishment, run by a nice couple (Joel & Jen). Pinas is the grocery store full of great imported goods, and Tap Si is their attached restaurant. My wife & I stop in often to do a little shopping and grab some food from the cafe, but we were really impressed by their catering. We ordered several party trays, and everything was outstanding. Homemade, high quality, fresh delicious, and great presentation. Our family faves are the BBQ skewers, the lumpia (meaty 2-bite eggrolls), pancit, and the Ube chiffon cake. If you're looking for a local spot for tasty exotic food run by good people, definitely check this place out.
