It's a small but thoughtfully curated spot that focuses on clean ingredients, organic options, and a healthy-living vibe without feeling pretentious. The selection is great, and you can tell care goes into sourcing. It's the kind of place where you pop in for a few things and end up discovering something new -- a great selection, most homemade, and lots of specialty items. The atmosphere is welcoming and local, and the vendors are very friendly and helpful. It's a great place to buy and support neighborhood businesses.

Was not super impressed with this "World Food Market" theme presented this weekend at the Good Day…read moreMarket... Barely qualifying as a craft fair, the assortment of vendors seemed mostly local. There were a couple of food trucks, a highly overpriced houseplant seller, some (super tasty) lemonade, great hot sauce, dog treats, 3D printed trinkets, and some bounce houses for the kids. The best stall offered organic fruit, veggies, and herbs, as well as selling plants to grow your own. Service was pleasant, but there is no ambiance, this "market" is in a parking lot of the mostly dead Boynton Beach Mall.

Not the biggest Green Market event but a good variety of vendors only operating on Saturdays 9am - 2pm October thru May.

There were tons of fresh fruits and veggies that looked genuinely local and just-picked, plus plenty of tasty BBQ and hot sauces to sample (dangerously easy to get hooked). And the honey stands were a highlight, with friendly bees buzzing around like they were giving their stamp of approval. What really stood out was how welcoming everyone was. So many vendors were happy to share the story behind what they're selling, and you can tell they're proud of it. We ended up grabbing a bottle of honey and a bottle of BBQ sauce and still didn't spend more than $20.00. Already can't wait to go back.

East Coast Farms and Vegetables is a family owned business that grows, packs, and sells produce…read more They typically wholesale to the food industry. They pack and ship under the names of Private Labels, East Coast Farms, and Broadline. East Coast has one of the only year-round cold storage packing facilities located in Florida. Their 38,000 square foot cold storage and packing warehouse allows them to sell to food service companies, wholesalers, and brokers. I was scrolling through Facebook when I received a notice that East Coast was offering a $10 box of produce on Saturday. I am always looking to incorporate more vegetables into my diet and with Thanksgiving coming up it seemed to perfect time to try them. The building is clearly marked and boxes were sold from 10 AM until they ran out. I was greeted with a smile and a hearty hello. All you have to do is drive around the warehouse, pop the trunk, hand them the money, they put your box in, and away you go. When I got home my box was still cold and in it I received 3 ears of corn, 3 large carrots, 2 cucumbers, 2 zucchini, 2 large yellow squash, 2 peppers, 2 onions, and asparagus. The sweet potatoes are so large that they are all I need for Thanksgiving dinner and I look forward to baking a loaf of zucchini bread tomorrow. I have an awesome prosciutto and pasta recipe for the asparagus. A family member saw the squash and wanted to know how I found such large ones. The produce is so fresh and super sized. I feel like I got a bargain. The box was practically paid with the asparagus and peppers alone compared to what Publix charges for just those two vegetables. I am super happy with my purchase and will definitely be back.

As you drive in, a (masked) young man hands you an order form with what's available for the day. You fill out the form as your car is in line. They were out of the first $10 veggie box with avocados and butternut squash, but we figured we'd get the second box with a small watermelon and zucchini instead. We also added on peaches and some eggplant. When we got to the head of the line by the tented area, a young gal takes your order form and your cash. They then deliver your order to your opened car trunk. When we got home, we saw what was in the box and the rest of the order. The extras -- the eggplants were small but that's fine. The peaches looked wonderful -- but were hard as rocks. I cut a couple up to try with whipped cream. So disappointing. I'm hoping they'll ripen a bit. If not, I'll cook them or use in a pie or cobbler. If my experience was solely based on the peaches, I'm not sure I'd come back. In our $10 box, were 4 apples, 3 onions, 4 small sweet potatoes, a zucchini with a chunk missing, a large acorn squash, 3 cubanelle peppers, and small watermelon. We are so hoping that the watermelon is sweet... I think you have to get a few combos to find out which of their products you like. That way you can decided if it's better to order "a la carte" or stick with the prepackaged boxes. Now, to find some recipes to use my new set of veggies! I'm so glad these farms decided to do this to raise money when their normal sources were not using as much of their produce. It's a great idea -- for all of us. Plus it gets us to eat more veggies!

It was a nasty overcast cloudy morning, I thought a perfect time to visit the Delray Green market…read more It's hard to believe I moved here six years ago, this is 6 miles away and I've never been. We found a free parking spot a bock away. This green market is a Saturday morning destination, an open air marketplace at Old School Square off Swinton & Atlantic Avenues. During the summers, they're open from 9 until 1:00, October through May 9 until 2:00 o'clock. There are over 50 vendors here featuring farm to fork produce, fish, meats, orchids, just picked citrus and juice, farm fresh eggs, milk & butter, artisan baked goods, fresh cut flowers, plants, and gourmet prepared foods with live musical entertainment weekly. After :90 we couldn't eat nor carry any more. We left with fresh pompano from Captain Clay, lots of pristine organic produce, mango honey, fresh spinach fettuccine, and pistachio butter. Prices were high but quality gourmet items usually are. There was a police presence here. The Beatles Tribute band were in costume & performed through out. Everyone was friendly & courteous and the beautiful dogs were leashed and well behaved.

I stopped in hoping to grab a veggie platter to bring to a friend's house, but they didn't have one. Instead, I picked up all the fresh vegetables and made my own platter--which honestly turned out even better. I even added a container of hummus to the mix. And I had leftovers to boot! A couple of Aldi reminders if it's your first visit: bring your own bags if you can, and don't forget a quarter for a shopping cart (you'll get it back when you return the cart). I also appreciate the self-checkout, which made getting in and out fast and hassle-free. If you're looking for fresh produce, everyday groceries, and a quick shopping trip, this Aldi is definitely worth a stop.

They don't do this all the time, but they have $10 produce boxes for sale. I was happy to see that…read morethey were going to do this again, this weekend after not having done them for awhile. We've been to two other produce places in south Florida before and each place has been a bit different. In one of the places, you could also purchase some veggies (or fruits) individually. One other place was okay, but some of the products in the box were a bit past their prime. This was our first time coming to Mecca Farms. This was such an easy experience. $10 cash only. Pull up, pay the money, and they put the box in your car. Everyone was masked and so were we. There wasn't a line at all when we came -- just one car ahead of us. When we got home, everything in the box looked like it had just been picked off the vine or bush. It was a gorgeous array of colors. Our box today had: eggplant, zucchini, green peppers, Cubanel peppers, poblano peppers, yellow squash, red tomatoes, yellow tomatoes, and a pound box of strawberries. I had to taste one of the yellow tomatoes right away -- sliced with a touch of salt. It puts those grocery chain tomatoes to shame. So much flavor. After dinner, we had some of the plant city strawberries for dessert. The ripe red berries were huge and so sweet. They doing this again tomorrow should you be in the area. Just check their website or Facebook page to see their schedule. If in doubt, send them a message to ask for produce sales dates. I'm sure we will buy from them again. The $10 price is a bargain. It's especially a deal when the produce is of the high quality that we got today.

The photos of the…read moreluscious looking fruits and vegetables made me realize it is time to put down the pandemic hot fudge sundae spoon and get back on nutritional track. Mecca Family Farms is offering a drive through. They have partnered with Fresh Start Produce Sales, a grower based company in Delray Beach. When you pull up you get a menu of what they have that day, place your order, and then pop the trunk and the workers who are masked and gloved put the boxes in. Payment is cash or Venmo. All boxes are $10. There were maybe 15 cars in front of me and the line went very quickly. You can follow them on Facebook for updates on what they have and recipes so you can use your produce. All of the vegetables are locally grown. My vegetable box included 2 green bell peppers, 2 poblano peppers, 3 green chili peppers, 3 cubanelles, 3 ears of corn, 2 zucchini, 2 cucumbers, 3 Kirby cucumbers, an eggplant, 5 red tomatoes, 4 yellow tomatoes, a head of iceberg lettuce, and romaine lettuce. You really get a lot for only $10. Some of the things I am going to make are a salad, BLT's, and zucchini bread. The peppers, especially the hot ones are a little more challenging since I don't usually cook with them. If the mangoes from my tree ripen in time I will use the jalapenos for salsa. Maybe I'll make stuffed poblano and green bell peppers. I am taking it as a challenge to find recipes to use the peppers. The $10 fruit box is usually mixed but they only had blueberries left and they gave you four pints. I use a ton of blueberries so they will go fast. I throw them into my smoothies and if I have enough I have a recipe for blueberry cobbler I have been wanting to make. There are so many reasons to come and get produce. A portion of sales goes to the Restoration Bridge International, a Lake Worth charity that provides food to the needy in Palm Beach County. You are helping local farms during a time when many of them are having to leave their crops to rot on the vine due to lack of demand. Most of all you are getting a great deal that can spark your cooking creativity and improve your health. There is nothing better tasting than a fresh box of farm fresh vegetables and fruit.

ALDI takes some getting used to when you're accustomed to the full-service supermarkets that are…read morepopular in South Florida like Publix. It's a Germany company and they do things differently to keep the prices very, very low. Most folks aren't used to cart deposits. Yes, you will need to insert a quarter into the lock to release the cart. You get it back when you return the cart. This saves ALDI the cost of an employee running around the parking lot to bring the carts back. Most folks aren't used to bringing their own shopping bags. Yes, ALDI will sell you bags instead of the usual unlimited bags (at least here where the government doesn't require selling them). Oh, and you'll be bagging your own groceries instead of an employee doing it. The selection is limited, generally only a single brand of products and that generally isn't a name brand. ALDI's generic brand is very good but people may prefer a name brand. All of this and more to keep the payroll costs down. There generally aren't more than four or so employees in the store at any time. Low cost for them translates to low prices for you. Yes, do your full weekly shop here and be amazed at how little you're paying for your groceries compared to TJ's or Publix! [Review 426 of 2025 - 2071 in Florida - 23988 overall]

Great place to get inexpensive baked goods. I like the Publix bakery but their prices keep going…read morehigher and higher and at Aldi, I can get good quality baked items for a lot less. Yes, these are pre-packaged goods, so I am comparing packaged foods vs packaged foods. The fresh bakery at Publix does not have a side to side comparison at Aldi since they do not offer fresh baked goods. I love how the cashiers can scan items so quickly that even if there are a lot of people in front of me, it goes quick.
