Gotta' love Farm Valentino for fresh vegetables picked right from the farm. This is just about as…read more'Farm-to-table' as you can get. Find them at the farm itself (on US-136 a few miles west of Crawfordsville) or at the Crawfordsville farmers market on Pike Street every Saturday (at least through the end of October...). Their vegetables are sometimes so big it's scary ... as if the farm was built on the site of a nuclear accident! But as far as I know, they grow vegetables the old fashioned way ... with water, sunlight, fertilizer, and love (and not necessarily in that order). This place is yet another hidden gem of Montgomery County. Oh, and I like Valentino and Yusmin almost as much as I like their produce!

This local gem is one of our favorite places to shop; however, with that being said, it isn't for…read moreeveryone. This is a store for those who love to support local businesses and who don't mind paying more for quality. You can go down the street to Kroger or Walmart and get chips, candy or meat for a cheaper price. You are paying for quality; you are paying to support someone local and not a corporate chain; you are paying to know what is in the food you are eating. There is a wide variety of items: baked goods (breads, pies, cookies, bars, noodles), dairy items (cheese, milk, butter) produce, premade meals, canned items (salsa, jams, asparagus, pickles), coffee, protein (chicken, beef, lamb, turkey, goat and pork) and so many more items. Four Seasons is constantly adding to their inventory and there's always something amazing to find. As someone who has shopped local and organic for decades, their prices are phenomenal and I would highly recommend a visit.

WTF is with these workers in these stores and restaurants when it comes to calling senior citizens,…read moreother strangers and customers, hon, honey, sweetheart and other terms of endearment? I don't like the Crawfordsville Kroger very well anyhow and go there if I need only 2 or 3 things. I hate it when some UNEDUCATED associate calls me hon in an ageist and condescending manner. The only time this behavior is appropriate is if an associate calls a child, friend or relative hon, sweetheart or any other name of endearment. But to call senior citizens, strangers and customers that, really? There are enough people that hate this kind of condescending behavior that it needs to be brought up to new employees during interviews, not to call the elderly, strangers and customers terms of endearment. Kroger management needs to get their heads out of their behinds and read below. Learn proper etiquette Some terms of endearment can feel condescending or insulting when used, especially in certain contexts or by strangers. These include terms like "honey," "sweetheart," "dear," "sport," "girl," "boy," "guy," and "love". Here's a more detailed look: * Condescending Usage: When used by someone in a position of authority or by a stranger, these terms can imply a lack of respect or a patronizing attitude. * Examples: A cashier calling a customer "honey" or a clerk at a store using "sweetheart" can be seen as demeaning. * Other examples of disliked terms: "sweet cheeks," "muffin," "cutie pie," "sweet pea," and "princess". * Context Matters: The same terms can be affectionate and endearing when used between close friends or partners, but can come across as insulting when used in a condescending or inappropriate way. * Workplace: Using these terms with coworkers can be considered verbal abuse or sexual harassment.

Silvery Valley Farm is an awesome farm located in Crawfordsville, IN! Wendy and her husband raise…read moresheep and chickens, grow produce and flowers, and make artisanal products such as soap, lotion, lip balm, and yarn! Her lamb and eggs are available through Four Seasons Local Market (open Thursday-Saturday), and there is nothing like local, well-raised meat and eggs. She also recently added wool ball diffusers you can use as car air fresheners -- I love getting in my car and smelling the lovely lavender scent! Other wool products from her sheep include dyed yarn and wool balls you can use in your dryer instead of dryer sheets! AND she makes wonderful soap in a variety of scents -- as well as lip balm and lotions. They make the perfect gifts! We had the opportunity to visit her farm last year during lambing season, and even got to help feed a few of the new lambs! They have a beautiful property and it was so fun to see her well-tended flock.

We were pleasantly surprised to find the local food stand in Crawfordsville. While they do close…read moreover the winter (open until mid-November), it's a local gem for finding apples, pears, squash, cider and more. You turn down a short gravel drive (they have an apple sign by the road) and there is parking next to a small building. The first time I visited, I was quickly overwhelmed by the quantity and variety of apples that Cass-Hankins has. They are all beautiful and delicious! The cider is the best that I have tasted in a long time. They randomly have baked products and also supply honey, squashes, potatoes, onions, pears and more. The gentleman who owns/works the stand is very knowledgeable and cares about the produce they are supplying. He was able to tell us which variety of apples held well so we could stock up for winter. They do take card, but I would recommend taking cash in case you visit while they are not in the stand to take the credit card payment.

I was looking for quality vitamins that are not made in China and was pleased to see these are not. They were a little more expensive but only compared to those that are fianced by the CCP.

At the checkout I noticed all the pictures that were taken with the owner - they are actually historic - she was head of a 10 state Health food organization. Yes, these will cost more but they are the best. Do your research.
