They sell home-grown vegetables and fresh eggs, but their real claim to fame is their succulent grass-fed beef. The cows are free to roam the 345-acre property, and Pastures of Rose Creek raises them with no antibiotics, no hormones, and no harmful chemicals. But the proof is in the taste--once you try grass-fed, you simply won't go back! Their steaks are cut to order and make great gifts as well! When I was there, a family was buying a half cow to freeze for barbecues. That's how good it is :) Be sure to try their new Piedmontese beef as well--it has a unique "double muscling" which makes the beef have less cholesterol and fat than chicken while still having that unsurpassed tenderness and flavor. Definitely worth supporting a family farm and getting delicious farm-to-table freshness! They are also at the Watkinsville Farmers' Market on Saturdays, 8 am to 1 pm.

I will certainly be talking to you again later this year when we place our repeat order. Check them out at www.bighickoryfarms.com!

We did not order from the sandwich shop this time, but we know they are great. Tomato House labeled products are a must to bring home. We are again very happy to stop and shop at the Tomato House.

Sorry, gotta do it. Pre orded a rib roast fir Christmas. $100 deposit. It us a butcher shop/market…read more Came to pick up my roast, 4 bones and asked if they would cut off the bones and tie them back on. I was told no. I said isn't this a butcher shop, and was told, yes but without a lot of help. I'm not sorry, but they weren't busy, thete were 4, maybe butchers, standing around, doing nothing! I got a box with plastic bagged meat in it. $21.00 a pound. 12 lbs $270.00. No worries. I ordered, I'll pay. Bone in. Stopped at Ingles on the way home. BONLESS rib roast, $9.99 lb! Wasted over$150.00. Won't be back. In fact headed to Ingles tomorrow to buy a WHOLE rib roast to cut and vacuum pack 12 to 14 rib eye steaks, at $9.99 a lb for the coming year. I cut them thick!

I was so excited when this fish and meat shop opened up in Clarkesville. Unfortunately, I've had…read moretoo many disappointing experiences to go back again. The owner needs to learn how to communicate in a kinder way. A few visits I found the owner to be a bit testy. I asked if he could order 2 lbs. of stone crab claws for me and he said yes and would call me when they came in. The price was like $35 lb. When he called I came in and he had 3 lbs. I said I only wanted two and he said "What am I going to do with the remaining pound?" As if it is my problem. I was NOT wanting to spend $100 on stone crab. Then, they didn't keep fresh for more than a day. DAMN. I bought raw whipping cream and it wouldn't whip (there was too much milk in it) and I spent $12 or so dollars for a pint. Another disappointment. The last visit was a couple months ago. I bought a piece of grouper (with the skin on....which is adding weight and you don't eat the skin) and a smoked mahi fish dip that was HARD pieces of fish. NO MORE! I'd rather drive to Gainesville to buy fresh fish than constantly be over charged and disappointed.

To beat the heat and the traffic, we got up early just to drive to Alto, and our trip to and from were uneventful. I love places like this. This is a old-timey farm market and country store grocery stop with a lot of local favorites, fresh produce, and Georgia-grown options. We purchased an assortment of items. I love the strawberry cake and the strawberry ice cream here. The attendants are also very kind and welcoming. It's not everyday you can find July Price peaches and yellow zucchini, and this location as both of those. Highly recommended for a day out with the family or a find of locally produced delights!
