    It's nice to have an organic option here but the produce selection is really limited, bizarre for…read morearound here with all of the local farms. The woman at the checkout was so unfriendly and tense. I felt uncomfortable here. I will be avoiding and going to a co-op or a farmers market.

    Harvest Time is such a wonderful, well stocked, interesting, and valuable store to visit in the…read moreAugusta area. The cashiers have always been friendly and helpful when I approached them. Their selection of vitamins, cleaning products, skincare, herbs, and teas is one of the best in the state for a small, local health store. In the Summer and Autumn, their selection of local produce increases. This year they have done a great job with local organic seedless watermelon and a nice variety of local organic vegetables. The dry goods section is not as expansive as one might find at a big box grocery store, which feels pretty reasonable and is even one of the reasons the store is nice.. it is a genuine, locally-opened small business.. not powering a huge space or warehouse to hold 12 varieties of one packaged item where 1 or 2 types are great. There are still many staple items to choose from. The costs I have compared are not more than the costs of items if they were ordered directly from the producers, they seem fair with prices. They are such a great addition to the area I try to think more of how I can support them instead of focusing on and criticizing minor shortcomings that most small local business face. I look forward to going to Harvest Time and finding interesting healthy things every time.

    I adore this place! It's always clean, well stocked and has many of the more obscure items I buy…read moresuch as soy curls and tofutti which I don't see anywhere but here anymore. The produce department is my favorite. Their lettuce and kale bunches are large, local and priced fairly. A great store for vegans/vegetarians! It is a little tight in there as it's not a large store but it is concentrated and laid out well. The staff is usually always friendly but as with any place, there are occasional exceptions. I'd recommend not shopping in the late afternoon as the traffic in that area gets pretty congested.

    This is a great market! The amount of local goods they sell is really impressive! From meats, to…read morebaked goods, to soaps to, textiles...very impressive We bought mostly food items while we were here. I LOVED the baked goods by the Good Bread company from Maine. Wow, those cookies, were YUM!!! The bread was equally as delicious. We bought some packaged, snacks from the nuts/snacks aisle and unfortunately, that wasn't very good. Tasted stale/odd and we just threw it away. It won't deter us from going back there. If it's busy, which is always seems to be, be careful, while the parking lot seems big enough for people and cars, I saw very close calls with cars to cars and cars to People! Yikes. Not sure what the malfunction is, but it seems people were not going slow and paying attention. I do recommend trying this location - at least to see what they have to offer, you might like it! I definitely will be back just for the baked good section alone. I'm coming for you Molasses Cookies!

    This is the closest store where I can shop and get organic fresh vegetables in the seasons when I…read morecannot harvest from my garden and greenhouse. I do not purchase other products as the prices are higher than I can get them elsewhere. 80 percent of the time I have shopped in this store I have been overcharged. Make sure to ask for the itemized receipt and check it carefully to make sure you are not overcharged. When alerting the check out person there is no real apology only some explanation that does not really explain why I was overcharged. I used to buy packaged lunches that were made by Chow Mein and last time I was there I was told they have decided not to carry their products any longer. I no longer shop at Fresh Off the Farm. Oh, one other thing, as far as I know there is no actual bathroom for workers, only a portable toilet outdoors. Concerning since they handle produce, etc.

    I do not go to this store on a regular basis and today reinforced my decision to go to other stores…read morethat offer similar products. The staff butted in front of me without any "excuse me" or other acknowledgement . The cashier did not ask for my number so that I could have my purchase count towards my rewards. I grew up and have lived here all my life so I am not a tourist or from away. I will never go to this store again after the treatment I experienced today. I work in retail and I would never , ever, treat a customer in this manner. if I could give a negative number that would sum up my shooting experience.

It's astonishing that I have only been in this store twice, given the fact that I grew up in Brunswick...Anyway, i finally made it in. It's a smaller store, that feels like what you might encounter in a larger city. It was neat and clean. I couldn't really tell how aisles were organized, however, because I was browsing, it didn't stress me out. We encountered one staff member who "assisted" my sister and it was fine, very transactional, which is fine and again, what you might expect in a big city. Staff at the register were fast and efficient, didn't engage in too much conversation, just supportive of fruit pies I purchased. LOL They had a lot of offerings from some of our favorite local businesses! Standard Baking Company Little Lads Two Fat Cats Union Bagel The prices were competitive as well! They have fresh produce, meat, dairy, eggs, seasonings...pretty much everything you can find at Whole Foods but at a smaller more local scale. I can't wait to go back the next time in town.
