Sustainably managed and environmentally conscious farm in Kansas City, Kansas by owners Laura and…read moreKatherine. This is their 15th year farming in Kansas City! They grow vegetables using sustainable practices. They sell produce, plants and eggs at the Brookside Farmers' Market on Saturdays at 6425 Wornall Road in Kansas City, MO from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m! I checked them out at the most recent Farmers Market and they had the biggest garlic heads out of every other stand! Prices are reasonable. They also offer a CSA program with home delivery in many areas of the KC metro area via their online store: https://2birdsfarmkc.square.site

​I randomly visited the Lenexa Sprouts location for the first time since it opened. I used to live…read moreright behind this lot before the store was built, and what an upgrade! I wish it was around when I was living in the area. I would definitely be a regular customer! I visited on a quiet Tuesday afternoon, and the store was organized, neat, and easy to navigate, which was a lovely start. ​I had two main items on my mission: grabbing the Back to Nature Peanut Butter Creme Crackers (a snack I became obsessed with after a trip to New York!) and picking up a specific protein powder for my mom, which was on a great Buy One, Get One 50% Off deal. ​However, the real highlight was the service, thanks to Dahlia, a head cashier employee who stopped to help us. Dahlia was incredibly kind and went above and beyond. She walked us through the free rewards program, explaining not only how to find coupons but also detailing a huge deal: if you buy $100 or more in health & beauty products (including that protein powder!) within a three-month span, you will be able to get 30% off your next purchase. She explained that the purchases history for this deal resets after the three months are up. ​She even took the time to offer personalized recommendations, sharing her own experience with thinning and oily hair and suggesting specific shampoo and conditioner products for me to try. After Dahlia helped me with the rewards sign-up, I checked out with a different cashier. This cashier was also super nice; she knew I was setting up the account and proactively made sure I either entered my phone number or had my rewards barcode scanned before I paid, guaranteeing I got my points for that trip. ​The service didn't end there! I had a $3 off coupon for the protein powder that wouldn't go through due to the store's poor cell service/Wi-Fi connection. Dahlia, without hesitation, simply gave me $3 back in cash to honor the coupon deal--that is truly above and beyond customer service. ​I highly recommend this location! The product selection is great, and the atmosphere is pleasant, but the staff--especially Dahlia--is what makes this store shine.

This farmers market is only open on Saturdays. It is awesome. It is small. It is full of…read morecolorful characters and cranky older people. It doesn't have people selling things like 1 dollar sunglasses like the Overland Park farmers market. This farmers market is what every farmers market should be. The type of place where the farmers are actually farmers. The type of place where the farmers will remember who you are and what you like. The type of farmers market where the farmer will bring you green tomatoes for the next week just because you want to fry some. It is also home to some of the most delicious tomatoes you will ever have in your life. I'm being serious here. There's this guy. He sells them out of the back of his truck. They are the ugliest tomatoes ever, but they are so good. I love this man and his tomatoes. I can't wait until it is July. If you want fancy stalls and pastas and breads and pies, then there's another farmers market close by that is probably better for you. I mean, the Shawnee Farmers Market does have some of this stuff, but for the most part it is just produce. I love it, and you should too.

They had a wonderful selection of old school candy, spices, cheeses, sausages, preserved jarred fruits and veggies, locally produced items and so much more! Their salt water taffy is excellent and addicting! We purchased some jams, cheese and sausage as well. I believe they have some deli sandwiches and soups available, variety may change each week. They are closed Sunday through Tuesday but open Wednesday through Friday from 11-5 and Saturday from 10-4. It's a very clean and bright store with a relaxing and friendly atmosphere.

Is it good? Yeah, it's definitely good. Is it great? Not…read morequite, but there's lots to like. It ain't 'ice cream', it's FroYo, but the intent is very much the same, without the butterfat content. Plenty of flavors to choose from, whether rotating or anchors, toppings of all kinds, and even sorbets and keto-friendly options. So why doesn't that count as great? Maybe it's the texture of FroYo (or even the iciness of the sorbet), but still, the mouthfeel is just a touch shy of that silky creaminess of ice cream. I know, I know, you can't hold Fifth & Emery to a standard the product wont reach, so focus on what they do well. Toppings are pretty much self-serve, as is the FroYo/sorbet, and be careful what you load up because the pricing is weight-based. Better yet, don't be cautious and let your tummy be in charge with lots to choose from, including boba, sprinkles, nuts, & about every candy bar you know. A couple of cups of FroYo, with moderate (and delicious) toppings ran us about $16, which is kind of pricey but that is on our selections instead of the product. The FroYo options, beyond the standard chocolate & vanilla, offered NY Cheesecake, a fabulous Very Strawberry, Cake Batter, and more. You are bound to find something you like. Service is friendly and the dining area is clean and comfortable. There are even a few games on hand should you want to make it more of a family-ish quality time visit. The product offerings allow for diet-friendly choices and even for those who might be lactose intolerant. Pretty good spot, pretty good product, and absolutely worth the stop.

I stopped into this Aldi's for the first time in quite a while because I get my groceries delivered…read morefrom Walmart. But I wanted to see if they had added any new gluten-free items. I put my quarter into a cart and went up and down all of the aisles to check out their products. Aldi has a lot of good products for reasonable prices. I think they had moved their produce closer by the door and it was quite congested so I really didn't get to look at that area as much. Everything that we're in the fridge and freezer areas looked fresh and well stocked. I always enjoy going down their aisle that has a variety of non-grocery items to see what they have. They did have quite a bit of gluten-free items and a lot of variety of specialty beverages. While I was there, I purchased a variety of beverages for my husband to try. I purchased some gluten-free protein shakes and items as well as some snack things for my grandkids. And I also got a tool for working out knots in the body. That was an excellent price for only $6.99 which was wonderful since I had been looking at Walmart and there was $28 and Amazon was $18 on sale! I checked my own items at that time because I didn't buy a whole lot while I was in on the first visit. I did go back the next day to return an unopened package and an opened package of protein cheese puffs. They were absolutely awful, but Aldi has a good return policy and I had the receipt and they immediately refunded my money on a gift card because I told them I was going to use it while I was there. On that day, I purchased a few more items and left. The only thing that I don't like and the reason I don't shop there is because it feels congested down the aisles and everyone seems like they are in a mad rush to shop. It's kind of stressful and they only had two checkers working and they expected you to check out your groceries on the rest of it. So I'm sticking with Walmart just because I love the ease of having my groceries delivered and ordering online. But I would recommend this store for the great deals and good product selection.
