Sanwa Farmer's Market is a busy, casual market that offers a wide variety of fresh produce, meats,…read moreand everyday grocery items at generally affordable prices. It has a very local, no-frills feel, and it's more about practicality than presentation. The experience is generally solid, especially if you're looking for fresh ingredients or bulk shopping. It can get crowded and a bit hectic at times, but that's part of the typical market atmosphere.

Visited Sanwa this past week to get some fresh veggies and other things…read more This was my first time here and my friend Jenny walked me through the place showing everything Sanwa has to offer. It is open to the public and it does get super busy in the afternoon so I would try to get there early. The parking lot is a little tight to pull into, but not terrible. Inside you will find huge items in bulk and all your groceries store essentials. Also the have wholesale items and all kinds of international stuff to make different cuisines, plus containers, plating, etc.. They have a really nice meat section and fruits and vegetables section as well. I was able to get everything I need plus more for the week.

The price is not necessarily cheaper than big supermarkets, and the presentation definitely can't compare, but we LOVE coming here, because the warm, cheerful service and excellent expertise you receive here is something you'll never find in big stores. Not to mention that we enjoy supporting local businesses, and this place carries not only local produce, but stuff made by other small, local producers, such as honey, jams and baked goods. They have toe jam and frog jam too, definitely will pick up some once I go low on the current supply. One time we asked about a product which they sold out off, and the lady kindly offered to call the producer to get some delivered the next day.

My goal was to locally source more produce since I live near so many farms. This market is mainly…read moreproduce with a small selection of milk/apple cider and some meats in the small fridge pictured in my review. They keep the warehouse 61-66° which must be great for the fresh foods. Prices beat Publix in avocados, strawberries, and more. I loved the "defect" section where foods past their date are offered at 0.45cent/lb. It reminds me of the company that saves "ugly" produce from grocery stores to resell at a discount.

Nice little produce store!! Located inside a warehouse. Plenty of parking, they're also handicap…read moreaccessible from the parking lot. And,they will take debit/credit cards & cash. Lots of selections. As stated by other others in the review section, prices are quite good here. Most vegetables/fruit are fairly fresh. Several weren't 100% fresh, but as a shopper, if you have some care and due diligence you will find many great items. When we went there they definitely had the AC/coolers on . So as a person, if you tend to run cold wear a jacket in here. I would rather see that so that they are keeping all their products cool to increase shelf life. Girl at counter was very friendly, and had a good attitude. This is a much better alternative than the local grocery stores.

I don't know how long this market has been here, but I'm so happy to have found it! The fruit and…read moreveggies look great, and the prices are terrific! I got large 2 bunches of bananas, 2 large onions, a Kent mango, a FL avocado, 4 ears of corn, a large yellow squash, over a pound each of green beans and snow pea pods, and a dozen large farm eggs, all for $13.50! There's lots of plants there too. It's fairly close to Fletcher/I-75 and Morris Bridge Rd. I have finally found my regular fruit and veggie market!

I decided to try out Raw Box Organics when fellow yelper, Kelleigh M., messaged me that Living…read moreSocial was running a deal. Raw Box Organics delivers organic produce directly from the farm to homes and businesses in the Tampa Bay area. You can receive weekly or biweekly shipments and you can customize the shipments to meet your likes and dietary needs. If you open an account on their website you can select produce that you do not want Raw Box to send you. (I hate mushrooms and eggplant so I made sure to select these items on my "do not send list".) Raw Box offers fruit, vegetable, or mixed boxes. They also offer a "juicing box" that contains fruits and vegetables that are good for juicing. All of the boxes come in three sizes: small, medium or large. A small box costs $35 and usually contains 10-13 items for 1-2 people. A medium sized box costs $45 and contains 14-17 items for 3-4 people. A large box is $55 and contains 18-22 items. I purchased the small vegetable box with my living social coupon. I had a bit of trouble using the website so I ended up calling Raw Box and placing my order over the phone. I was really pleased with my shipment. My small box did not seem small at all and contained a variety of tomatoes, sweet potatoes, yellow onion, parsley, carrots with tops, lettuce and kale. I haven't been at home much the past few weeks so I have not had the chance to order again (yet). I have used a similar service in the past and loved it, but I took a break from the service because the weekly shipments can get overwhelming. While it was fun to try new vegetables and recipes my husband and I had to be careful about checking our orders online each week to make sure we weren't receiving the same items each week. (You can only eat so many carrots!!!) Next time I place an order with Raw Box I plan on trying their "juicing box". I love to make freshly squeezed juice with my Vitamix Juicer and would enjoy receiving different varieties of produce to juice.

We bought a juicer about a…read moreyear ago, but it has been a bit challenging to find a wide variety of organic produce on a regular basis. Abby's is a bit far to go every week, and the grocery stores are often out of things that I want if they even have a decent sized organic section. We subscribe to an organic produce service in California as well, but I like that you can choose to omit the foods you do not like at Raw Box, unlike our Cali service where you get whatever they choose to give you whether you like it or not.

The fruits and vegetables are fresh and flavorful. We enjoy getting fresh eggs at First Fruits…read moreMarket. The difference between eggs from the countryside and "factory" eggs from the chain stores is enormous. We drop by two or three times a week because we like our vegetables fresh. Why buy really fresh vegetables and then keep them around the house for a week? No. Get fresh vegetables and, then, take them home and eat them! Besides, it's just nice to stop by for a visit.

If it's strawberry season, I'm heading to Parksdale to pick up some strawberries and grab a sweat…read moretreat. The "world famous" strawberry milkshakes live up to the hype and are well worth any wait in line. I love how creamy they are and the fact that they include chunks of strawberries. Don't sleep on just a plain bowl of strawberries with whipped cream either. I normally find myself wanting more strawberries after a milkshake, and the bowl of strawberries is the perfect compliment. As for the lines, they can be pretty long. But they do a really good job at making the lines move quickly. The prices are also very reasonable. The market also has all sorts of fresh veggies, fruits, and strawberry related items, like jams, breads, and even cookies!
