I have, however, been a fairly regular customer at their Seaport stall. The produce, although not an amazing variety this time of year, is always fresh, looks (and tastes) appealing and staff are very helpful. They always have a large selection of different apples and often have different variety bags on sale for a great price. We really enjoy stopping by their stall to grab some fresh produce, sample an apple and have a little chat. Friendly people and a great local farm!

Ive been going to Daves for many many years, over 20 for sure. The last year or so Ive noticed a…read moredrop in the quality of the produce. Rotten centers in the sweet potatoes being a regular occurrence. Items I would normally buy there I had to shop elsewhere for as they werent fit to take home. They have expanded the ready made section and I often grabbed something for the drive home to snack on. I didnt care for everything I tried but would not return something simply because it wasnt to my liking. Last week I purchased some hot pepperoni for the drive home. Ive been eating pepperoni since I was a kid. I like hot. I do not like mild or honey garlic. I was disappointed as it turned out to be mild. I checked the label but it was marked hot. So this week when I went in I grabbed my items as well as a package of pepperoni around the same price. I brought my receipt and the pepperoni purchased earlier. I have never returned anything to Daves in my life and actually just wanted an exchange. After paying for my other items and waiting for a manager I was denied an exchange and told it wasnt their fault just because I did not find it hot enough. I have had to return things to Giant Tiger, Costco, Sobeys and superstore. I have always been treated well and never given a hassle. This is not the customer service I expected. I was embarrassed and made to feel like I didnt know what I was talking about and I was wasting busy peoples time. They have lost a customer in me and 3 family members as well.

I mean, it's absolutely fantastic. Just when you thought you couldn't be happier, you're walking out with a bottle of Tideview's Sparkling Pear. This is huge for the Dartmouth crowd, y'all.

Here is where I can find carrots that taste like they just came out of my own garden and plenty enough fresh and organic veg to get your good nutrients all winter long. Also a bonus that they are open every day, not just market Saturdays. They carry, not just fruit & veg but Foxhill cheese, milk & gelato, Old Dutchman cheese, Made With Local granola bars and Terra Beata cranberries, just to name a few.. Sure, you'll pay more then in the grocery store but it is so worth the fresh taste of naturally ripened, not dyed, organic goodness. And you're supporting local to boot, win win.

There's also a wall where there is a selection of DVDs available, and a counter with home-baked fudge (which by the way is absolutely decadent!) Any time I'm back in Sackville during the summer, I always make it a point to stop by Avery's for a strawberry frozen yogurt. (Some days it isn't in stock, in which case I happily settle for the Blueberries and Cream variety). The thing to keep in mind, is that the ice cream is VERY popular here, and so you should be prepared for a line-up on hot days!!

They have grown quite a bit in the past few years, adding on an addition and adding a few more sections to the store. They started out selling your basic market type food. Fruits, vegetables, Milk, eggs. Now they that plus baked-goods, fish and many different condiments such as dressings and spices. Country Market is a great place to stop to gather your produce. It's always fresh and a lot cheaper than the grocery stores. They sometimes have great sales on things such as banana's, celery, lettuce and apples. Timberlea doesn't have any grocery stores, so on a Sunday when you're cooking your turkey dinner and realize you forgot turnip, you can run down to the Country Market and grab what you forgot to get!

I was excited by the other two reviews and decided to check out the market this past Saturday…read moremorning as I was in search of fresh local fruits and vegetables. Thank goodness I did not drive more than 30 minutes to get there as I was extremely disappointed by what I found when I arrived. Most of the food was simply packaged items that I could find at the grocery store 10 minutes from home. The baby carrots were in sealed plastic bags and the one bunch of fresh carrots was so limp, I could have bent them backward without snapping. I'm not sure to whom this market caters, as even local residents can simply go to the Bayer's Lake Superstore and get a much better/fresher selection. Maybe the staff should get up early, drive to the Valley to buy real produce and sell it locally at a profit.

We grow a wide variety of fresh market fruit and vegetables, the majority of which are grown pesticide free. Pesticide free indicates that the item has been grown without the use of conventional pesticides by using natural biological controls and good management. Compost and green manure are used as our main source of fertilizer. After 25 years of adopting safer, more natural ways to grow our produce we have reduced conventional pesticide use by 95%. We continue to develop better ways of growing produce safely and naturally. Crops we have successfully grown pesticide free are labeled as such so our customers know exactly what they are getting.
