They have a tremendous variety. I live in a retirement community and buy half-bushel every week to share with others with whom I live. Fun thing for me to do and my neighbors love the apples too. Some have even started going to Wells themselves. I also buy farm raised eggs there. They often resell excellent cider from top farm cideries. Their jams and jellies are great. Friendly people.

And gorgeous little bouquets of flowers! If you are looking for a good old fashioned red slicing tomatoes, this place has some of the best. Great deals on bushels of Romas in September for canning/freezing. Come Fall, look for tons of pumpkins, winter squash, apples, and cider! Used to be located off of Four Mile, it is now off of Walker Road just past Bissel headquarters.

The service is always incredible and it's always under crowded which is a huge win in our book. Their prices, you just can't beat $11/peck of apples. That's ridiculously incredible. They also have events at their farm-- concerts where they sell hard ciders with a sandwich, to puppy happy hour, to story time for kids... they're definitely a special place. The property is so well kept and clean throughout-- they make it a no brainer to come back! And for the love of everything, grab their homemade donuts.

You literally have to walk around and hopefully find someone who will help. Most just say they will call someone over, and good luck getting a team member to show up. Their on-site Starbucks is a disaster. Serving stale and moldy banana bread. (It's not their fault, by the way. They claim they "just put it in the bag.") Managers just walk the traditional Meijer corporate line here. They want to keep their jobs and will admit no wrong doing whatsoever. So much for small town hospitality, right? Most times this place is crowded with the GVSU crowd. The idiot and the entitled masses seem to think that they own this place. They won't look up from their phones and be bothered to move out of the aisles. Again, the local store management allows all of this nonsense because they want the revenue.

Earthly Refillery allows you to come in and be more intentional and sustainable when shopping. You can, and are encouraged, to bring your own reusable containers for shopping for everything from food and drink to cleaning supplies! They have a wide array of different pantry and fridge staples you may need, including the very necessary ice cream from local business Furniture City Creamery. the fridge had a really cool assortment of beautiful flavored milk and fun drinks. If I remember correctly, there were even sections to get kombucha. I really liked the areas with treats that you could buy such as caramel popcorn as I often just want a little! The staff is very kind and helpful but not overbearing which I really appreciate. The instructions are very clear for how to do everything so I think it's pretty accessible. I'd definitely stop by here the next time you're at studio park. Definitely could be worth taking the dash or riding your bike over to get some goods!

They also have a container donation program going on. Loved this store so much. The cashier was also the one that made body perfume balms and I tried one and loved it, but it was a tester scent so it wasn't for sale. When she learned I wouldn't be able to come back because I'm a flight attendant, she priced it so I could buy it, so unexpected and so sweet. So now I'm balmed and scented and armed with an organic card that turns to flowers when planted to gift out. Love it here!

I loved that they had a few items that I wasn't even sure of what they were, it was a learning experience. Make sure to check out the mushroom selection - holy fungi they looked amazingly beautiful...pink oyster mushrooms, yes, I'm going to find a recipe for these! Looking for a quick meal, check out their to-go selection of salads and such. I didn't stock up on any food items this trip for fear they would have to sit in the car too long, but next time for sure. I really enjoyed the kitchen gadget selection and spent a lot of time browsing. The bargain of the day....a bottle to make homemade salad dressings in, complete with recipes printed on the outside of the bottle...they all sound delicious and I cannot wait to make them. Best part - under $5 people! I picked up a very nifty stainless steel, BPA-free beverage holder that says it keeps cold drinks cold for 24 hours - 24 ounces, should really help me get my daily intake of water while sitting at my desk for those long hours during the workweek! A sign said, "WE DON'T SELL IT IF WE WOULDN'T BUY IT FOR OURSELVES" and that is truly evident by their amazing selection. Don't pass this place up the next time you're at the market!
