We went to Whole Paycheck to get Banana Leaves (i'd seen them in the produce section one) and were…read moreunsurprised when we discovered they only carry them on occasion. I was surprised that the produce woman sent me to ZZ's - never heard of it. We drove up and I was sure I was the fool of a cruel bougie-grocery-store joke. Nope. ZZ's is awesome, and proves that YOU CAN NOT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER. This is the best spot we've found in the area for "ethnic" produce i.e. banana leaves, taro root, shiso, thai basil, fava beans, green almonds... I mean, the works! Not only that, they have a lot of chilies, onions, canned latin and middle eastern foods, and the only mission-style sized tortillas i've seen outside of San Francisco. If you're a serious cook you will absolutely love this place. A COOKS MUST!

First I was so excited to see strawberries in stock, given they have had such a rough crop this summer. And not only did they have them but they had quite a bit! They're small but mighty delicious! Also, love all the local brands/makers they carry and they just keep upping their game outside of produce as well. In particular I'm mightly geeked that they carry Bird Dog Baking from Ypsi (love their rye teacake), White Lotus Farms (my husband can't stop raving about the pistachio blackberry croissant I brought him), Why Not Pie?, Harvest Kitchen, and more. And of course, my beloved Crust. Everyone here is so kind. The mission is so important. And their products are so great. Love having them so close by!

This is as local as you can get, without visiting the farm personally. They also have a great selection of locally sourced meat and dairy; and a cozy enclosed patio to enjoy a coffee and a fresh pastry. The vibe is earthy and relaxed, without a red cap in sight. If you care about your food, you need Argus in your life.

Due to life and a pandemic I took a few years off from strawberry picking but I was excited to do…read moreit again this year! I was not left disappointed. First off, we went on a Friday early evening the week the strawberries were ready for picking and it was PLENTIFUL. So many berries. My family and I all agreed that we would only be picking enough to eat at home and that's it. No jamming, canning, freezing, etc. Yet the berries were so perfect, so ripe and beautiful we somehow picked a full tray each, even in the 90 degree, 60% humidity heat. NO REGRET! It's still super easy to go here. Drive up, grab your tray, pick your berries, drive back and get them weighed (there's stall with mixes for baked goods, jams, and more plus bottled beverages if the heat is getting to you). I can't remember exactly but it shook out to be around 2.59 a pound I believe (but don't quote me on that) and I got $23 dollars worth. Now I have nearly 9lbs of strawberries in my fridge for snacking, baking, and more. But don't expect jam this year. I haven't the energy for that!

Pack sandwiches & have a picnic after! Pro tip: check the website, their Facebook page, or call them every year to see how the crop is doing and when it will be ready for picking.

They carry some zingermans products and their catering is very convenient around the holidays. They carry Christmas trees in the winter and lots of herbs, flowers, etc outside in the warmer months. I *love* their quiches. They have become a holiday staple in our family on Christmas and Thanksgiving morning. Lately I've been coming for postpartum prepared meals because I know their ingredients are decent. Everything is a bit pricey, but I know the stuff is quality and we've had such a good experience with their catering department. That we will be shopping here for a long time.

This is definitely a good place to go if you're looking for something fun to try, or to bring something unique to a dinner party etc. They also have meat, dairy, a lot of ready-mades, and a nice looking salad bar. It is overall more expensive than other grocery stories, but presumably shopping here is supporting a local business and local farmers.

The prices were decent, some items were cheaper then what you'll find at Meijer/Kroger, but if you look around you could buy the items at the local retail market at the same or lower cost.

It was very crowded when I visited on a Saturday afternoon. Checkout moved fast, which was nice.

The summer greens and veggies are wholesome and still-dirty-from-the-field fresh; the winter gives a mix of storage roots and sturdy hoop-house produce. My favorites from the past year have been beets, kale, chard, romanesque (crazy fractal cauliflower), tomatoes, and cucumbers. There's definitely a Michigan cast to the selection; some months it's every bit as colorful as the Full Belly Farm box we got in Berkeley, some months it makes me think of Laura Ingalls Wilder's root cellar with a side of hoop-house lettuce. Everything's from right on the farm (unlike a "farm box" we once got that included bananas). A full share is about right for 3-4 people; we used to get a half share (a full portion each pickup, but only every other week), and we now split a full share with another couple. We haven't ended up with a freezer full of butternut squash (always a danger in Berkeley), but finishing the jalapeños while they're fresh sometimes takes planning. I usually pick up from the Friday morning Old West Side stop on Sunnyside (it's hosted in a customer's driveway); I occasionally get out to the farm itself for the Thursday afternoon distribution, which is just off Joy and makes a good dirt-road bike ride. Winter CSA in Michigan? I wasn't expecting to be impressed, but I am.

So glad I've learned of the SunSeed Farm CSA! We signed on for their summer share a couple of weeks…read moreago and are very pleased with their veggies. The kale is amazing, the spinach is huge, the freshness of everything is unmatched. I've never tasted lettuce like the lettuce I received last week, so fresh and full of flavor I've never known lettuce to have. This farm offers a year round CSA opportunity and we are anxious to experience every season with them. Signing up is super simple and prorated, so signing up now will get you a reduced rate since the weeks have now decreased. You can sign up and pay right on their website which is also full of loads of great information about their mission and how they grow the vegetables you are eating. They also follow all standards set by the National Organic Program and do not use any chemicals or substances that are not allowed under an organic certification, although they have decided not to become certified organic. You have to taste their veggies to really understand the freshness and the taste, it's unbelievably fresh. I believe when they say they strictly stick to the organic standards and am comforted to know that I am feeding my family fresh, healthy, chemical free food! I would definitely recommend a full share to anyone, even if you only have two people in your family. It's easy to go through your veggies in a week. CSA shares are structured as follows: Full Share- pick up every Thursday or Friday at your choice of two locations. Half Share- pick up every OTHER Thursday or Friday at your choice of the same two locations. We currently have a half share and I am going to try and upgrade. BEST CHOICE WE'VE MADE! Thank you SunSeed Farm.
