I am SUPER DISAPPOINTED with the customer service from Mint Creek Farms and Patchwork Farms. The…read moreCSA is PRICEY and I expected excellence. The eggs are FANTASTIC - but, you can buy them at farmers markets for the same price. The meat is frozen and hit and miss. Lamb neck bones? For the price - that's kind of insulting. The produce seems to be what they need to get rid of and it quickly spoils. I have been to an event at Mint Creek and it is a well-run humane farm. The people are nice. Their is simply NO CUSTOMER SERVICE. Imperfect Produce dies a MUCH better job. Go to Mint Creek for the dinner and tour. Buy the scrumptious eggs at Farmers Markets. Skip the over-priced CSA. It seems like it's an after-thought to move surplus product and not worth the cost.

We initially signed up for a 4 week CSA. The eggs and variety of meat in our CSA is exceptional!…read more We are now signing up for a longer term CSA as our first four weeks have been such a great experience. Raya has been more than accommodating with any special requests and is so quick to let us know if anything is changing in our CSA. Sometimes the laying hens don't lay as many eggs in the winter so I always appreciate Raya reaching out and keeping us informed. We are also looking forward to our first farm tour at Mint Creek this spring to further connect with the animals and the farm. I truly value the way they raise and treat their animals. I know that we are not only investing in our own health, but in the health of the environment by supporting Mint Creek Farm.

If I broke down while far away, I'd just pay a tow truck to tow my car to Al's Shop. I wouldn't let anybody lay a wrench on any car of mine. One day, my Mother rescued a kitten that was wandering on a road around here; she pulled over, scooped up the kitten, after chasing it for a long time, and took it home. The kitten was so traumatized that it crawled and hid in the car and wouldn't come out. We tried to get him out for a long time... a couple of hours. We couldn't really tell where the kitten was. Finally, we just gave up; we set out some food and water, and turned in for the night. The next day, we opened the car, checked the food and water, which didn't appear to have been touched. Meanwhile, Mr. Kitty continued to yowl, but he still wouldn't come out. We didn't know what else to do, so we brought the car to Al's Garage; he tried to get the cat out of hiding, but had no better luck than we'd had. He finally found where the cat was... deep into the Dashboard. Al tried to reach in and grab the cat, but he had no luck. Finally, he just told us that he'd have to take the Dashboard out of the car, which he did. He spent several hours but finally got the cat out. He gave us the cat, re-installed the Dashboard, and sent us home. He wouldn't take a penny for his hours of work. Coo Coo Cat lived with us for 21 years.

We tried it when it first came to Manteno, and the food and service were exceptional--but there were several intrusive children disrupting our experience. Over two years later, we decide to give it another chance... As soon as we walked in, the A/C must have been out so it was HORRIBLY hot and uncomfortable. The air smelled like spoiled food, a staff member behind the counter was coughing and complaining which is not how you conduct yourself among paying customers... Sadly, we didn't even bother ordering as our appetite was completely spoiled. I really hope some changes are made because it truly used to be a favorite spot. Please if the owner sees this, you must turn this around ASAP.

This place should be called two happy brothers…read more This place reminds me of my childhood, when my father would take me to the butcher, he would order the meat he wanted, then tell the guy behind the counter how he wanted it cut, then the meat would be wrapped in paper, then handed to you, you felt like this piece of meat retained a little dignity in death. A small Mexican butcher shop and grocery store, with that friendly neighborhood feel. House made Chorizo just like shake and bake offers up makes a great base for my home made Chili. Very high quality arachera (skirt steak) they will run it through the meat tenderizer for you for free. Nice pork chops, I prefer the skinny ones on the bone with all the fat on the ends, but they have the boneless American ones as well. One of my favorite services is they will hand cut to order whatever meat you want. Whole chicken, cut down into pieces, or big chunks for my arroz con pollo. If you order a ton of wings they will remove the tips for you and give them back so you can make stock. On the weekends they have decent carnitas by the pound, fair prices on basic vegetables. Always fresh tortillas and a good selection of Mexican essentials like chile's and sodas.

So, now I eat meat, but try to only think of it as originating in the package it comes in. We had been eating more and more organic meat, but I still didn't feel that great about it. I mean, I am not the folks from Portlandia, (http://www.hulu.com/watch/208808) but I would prefer that my food be antibiotic and hormone free and actually know it for sure. So, I did some research and found out that Nature's Choice was available right at the Frankfort Farmer's Market. Hooray! We signed up for the CSA and egg share and couldn't wait for our first delivery. We get to choose from two different bags and there is always a great selection. Not only do I know exactly where our meat is coming from, but it tastes great. Unlike anything I have ever had. Like what meat should really taste like. The eggs are also delicious and we go through quite a few each month. Before Nature's Choice, my husband lived in fear that I would give up meat again, but with this quality of a product, he can rest easy that this won't happen. In fact, we have already decided that we will continue with the meat and egg share throughout the winter and spring. It really is a great value and a great product. Try it out!

Then on a different order we had a slight issue with our ham slices being discolored and having an odor. This was over the course of buying from them for about 2 years and about 10 different orders. They black listed us from ordering from them because we had pointed out those 2 things. Be careful when you order from them because they don't take well to anyone trying to mention that something may have been bad or wrong.
