They offer a unique wide variety from local vendors, organic products, plants and flowers and specialty goods. We purchased some of the bulk candy and a specialty cheese. It's hard to mix a variety of candy because each one is a different price and has to be packaged separately.

Ward's has so much packed into a small space, so I took my time to look around a little and not just rush through. This has got to be the friendliest grocery store in Florida, if not the entire South! Peoples' hands were busy stocking shelves, beers, yogurt, carrots, and soaps, are all placed on shelves by caring hands. Good food with good prices, and no corporate phony greeting. You get sincerity with your groceries; it makes a difference!

I enjoy visiting esoteric type shops because of the light, love, & uplifting spirits. Otter & Trout…read moreunfortunately is the exception to that rule. When I entered I was overcome by a horribly strong odor of what seems to be a combination of bad incense & herb burning for many years. The store suffered from the 4Ds.....dark, dingy, dusty & dirty. In fact any merchandise that isn't sealed should be considered used as it is all tainted with a layer of residue from the burning of items. In so far as pressured sales, yes they do suffer from that also even to the extent of as you're heading toward the door. The couple of items I had a somewhat interest in the shopkeeper could not demonstrate or explain them correctly. Personally I couldn't get out of there quick enough to get fresh air in my body. To add to the dismal experience I had to maneuver myself around beer cans in the parking lot.

Great honey shop with local products!!its like country style old general store…read more The owner Ryan is knowledgeable and super friendly. So many kinds of jams, pickles, dressings, sauces, syrups and spices. It's the best local honey spot! They sell tallow too. I get local honey for my allergy.

He's also got dill pickle boiled peanuts. They sell out quick. In the busy summer months there can be up to 14 flavors for sale. Try before you buy. He takes credit/debit cards now. Frequent customers can ask for custom batches. He's a super nice guy and sells the best boiled peanuts in the South. He is usually there Friday from 10 AM to dusk and Saturday 10 AM to dusk, weather depending.

Not sure where he's located now; however, before moving he said that he had some friends that had a produce stand near there and he'd be joining them in selling his Best Boiled Peanuts!!

Our favorites are the Garlic, the Farm Boy, and the Cow Girl.

A yoga studio / healthy living cafe for all seasons. How many times have you uttered that phrase…read morebefore? Zero, because Fresh Jax is literally one of a kind! The owners are passionate about their mission and so dang nice that you'll be on cloud nine after visiting the space. All of their food is organic and vegan; basically food that you can feel good about! No artificial preservatives, what you see is what you get. My recommendations are the Acai Berry Blast smoothie and the Bliss Bowl, which is spicy tofu deliciousness! I took my first ever yoga class at Fresh Jax. To be honest, I had no clue what I was in for. Afterwards, I felt as if I achieved nirvana. I felt calm and relaxed, almost to the point of a high-like state. For newbies like myself, Fresh Jax has my stamp of approval! Although, they do offer advanced classes for experienced yogis, too. Truly, an eye-opening experience. I need to push myself to come here more frequently, because I felt unstoppable after my initial sessions. It doesn't get better than great people behind a great product. Love this place!

From their variety of fresh organic food and smoothie selection, to their yoga classes. Each of their smoothie and food options are made from ingredients fresh from local farms. I had the opportunity to sample each of their smoothies, and all were delicious and healthy. Eating great food with no guilt, I'm sold! I also had the opportunity to attend one of their yoga classes. I've been to other yoga classes at other studios before, only to leave "not relaxed" I always felt as though it just wasn't a fit for me. Yoga a Fresh Jax was very different. This is the perfect place for those looking to do yoga for the first time. The studio has no mirrors and is a complete no judgement zone. It's a relaxed atmosphere where the instructor clearly explains each technique that's achievable on all levels. They offer a variety of classes from beginners, like myself, to more advanced for those that have been at it for years. Fresh Jax is the perfect place to begin your journey to a healthier lifestyle.

Swung by after dinner with the wife so I wasn't hungry After browsing the meats i pulled an 11lb beauty from the cooler. Grabbed a pack of their burger patties and the wife picked out some Popping Pineapple sausage. I threw the sausage on the grill at 300 the next morning with breakfast. I can't remember the last time I had some fresh pork sausage. This blend was awesome. It was a bit too spicy for my wife but my daughter had no problems with it so it' was medium heat. Great excuse to go back for some mild so the wife can enjoy some. I don't think I have ever had fresh bacon so that is on the list for next time. The boston butt turned out perfect after 13hrs on the smoker. I marinated it with some Notorious P.I.G rub from their shelves of seasonings. The burgers are a must try at least once if you like to eat hamburgers. I will buy it again. . Really hope to get a chance to try their dry aged ribeyes. The steaks looked like USDA Choice at a minimum. All of the meat looked like quality cuts. Not that I am an expert Fresh meat Very good quality Fair prices
