Produce Place is located in a renovated church building which gives the store a airy open feel, the produce is fresh and usually very reasonably priced, even more so if you check out the weekly specials that are posted on the cork board next to the entrance. They usually have great prices on bananas, strawberries and salad fixings. In addition to the fruits and veggies there are nice selections of cheese, breads and pastries and wines. off to the side is a small groceries section with canned goods, dry goods, and a cooler. Overall Produce Place easily beats the groceries with higher quality fruit and vegetables at better prices. Well worth a regular visit to stock up and work on making your meals more flavorful and healthier.

The best part, you get great food without the restaurant prices. I'm just so glad I finally found this place. Everyone here is super friendly and helpful. They took great care and time to explain the food to us since I have no experience with Uzbek food. The Beef Lulya (very similar to Kafka) was simply amazing; it was juicy, tender, and flavored to perfection. The Uzbek non was so good; chewy and soft. We got lucky we got one when it was still hot fresh out of the oven, ate some of it in the car, couldn't wait. I'm going back tomorrow to try some of the other selections. Went back the following day to try the Samarkand Plov, Chicken Lulya Kebab, Eggplant Salad and Lamb Samsa. All were absolutely delicious. The kebabs are extraordinary; juicy tender and grilled to perfection. The Samarkand Plov is full of flavor but a bit oily for me. Eggplant Salad was super. I will definitely be visiting this place regularly.

This grocery store has products from Uzbekistan, Russia, Ukraine, and other neighboring countries. My Uzbek Uber driver told me about this store and I have been a loyal customer ever since. Their prepared foods are the highlight of the entire store. You'll find Uzbek and Russian delicacies like plov (pilaf), various meet pastries, salads such as olivie and vinegret, meats, holodets (meat jello), Napoleon and sour cream cakes, baklava, manti, sauerkraut, pickled things, and other delicacies. The quality of this food far surpasses any local restaurants and any other Uzbek restaurants I have tried in the US. I always get plov (pilaf), and a little bit of everything to try. Plov has huge chunks of meat and is very tasty! During my multiple visits I've observed almost all customers get some food to go. This food is sold by weight. I heard many people in the community talk very highly of this place and their food selection. The store has a deli and butcher/meat section with very good looking meat. The employees are very helpful and provide recommendations. There's also fish available in a refrigerated section. Throughout the store you'll find everything that your dining table may need - spices, nuts, pelmeni (dumplings), cheese, tea, sweets, savory snacks, canned goods, pans for cooking manti, rugs, and more. They even have Dubai chocolate! The store is fairly small but very clean and packed with treasures. You can tell that the owners put their hearts into this establishment. The service is very friendly. Even the customers frequently socialize amongst themselves. The service is trilingual - Uzbek, Russian, and English. Feel free to order food or meats in any of the languages. The store has a small parking where you parallel park and some parking in the back. I would very highly recommend a visit especially focused on grabbing prepared foods. Plan to spend some time here because there are a lot to check out!

The farm is pretty close to the Towpath trail, so you can visit both. I went for a pottery class, and it was a lovely experience, outdoors on a nice evening, and picked up some bread. They had a handful of events on the website, including crafts, educational, and community building with live music. When I returned to pick up my pieces, I got more bread, and also some seasonal produce. The meat always looks really good, but the timing hasn't lined up for me to try it. There is a big livestock guardian dog who roams the property, so pets are not allowed, and also, he's super friendly, so may approach.

The farm practices land stewardship, regenerative agriculture, and sustainability. I have visited the farm for two years now. There is no place quite like it around. Layout: The farm is huge, but once you orient, it will be easy to navigate. Aside from the farm field, you'll find a little creek, hand-woven willow dome, flower field, greenhouse, event area with hay ride stage, a farm stand and Oxbow market. Gravel parking is available, overflow parking is on the grass along the farm. Animals: The farm residents are Icelandic Sheep, turkeys, and very good boy Milo (Great Pyrenees). Meet all! Oxbow Market: The farm has market stand and Oxbow Market. The market stand has seasonal veggies and flowers. Check social media for availability. It works on an honor system, cash or Venmo are accepted. The Oxbow Market is an absolute farm gem. It has fresh produce (like tomatoes grown on the farm), many locally loved brands (such as yummy mushrooms), locally baked sourdough and focaccia, clay handmade mugs, soaps, and a lot more. You'll find produce, flowers, bread, meat, dairy, souvenirs, personal care, sweets, and more at this store. The store is open during events, and Wednesday through Sunday from 12-7 PM (check their website for the latest hours as the seasons change). I love to get seasonal veggies, scones, and bread here. I never successfully walked away empty handed, everything looks so tasty! During the last visit I purchased a scone, focaccia, and peaches ($17.41 grand total, 3% credit card sub charge). Flower Picking: The farm seasonally grows and sells flowers. You can get a premade bouquet $20 or $15 for you-pick. You-pick experience looks so dreamy. I especially love their gorgeous marigolds. Events: The farm offers different events during the summer. They're always so relaxing and also a little rustic. Events include concerts, crafting activities, yoga and sound baths at the willow dome. The music is always so eclectic and really good. The crafting events so interesting like eco dyeing, pottery, paper making, and more. Some events feature food vendors. Most concerts have a suggested donation and benefit the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. You may want to bring a chair or a blanket if attending a concert (some picnic tables are available). Event tickets can be pre-purchased on their site. My personal favorites: I love to spend a whole evening on the farm. I always look forward to petting Icelandic sheep, getting some goodies from the Oxbow Market, listening to the music or crafting, wandering around the farm, and lingering by the fire pit. Everyone at the farm including the owners and the volunteers are so welcoming! It's fun to see families and kids on the farm just enjoying togetherness and nature. You have to visit and feel the amazing atmosphere of this farm. It's a nice getaway from the city and real life. I highly recommend checking out their events and stopping in to shop at the market. I'm already planning my next visit!

This is a Hollywood movie come true!…read more The Sirna's were your typical urban-dwelling family with regular city-type jobs up until a few years ago when they decided to buy a plot of land and move out to the country to start farming. Today, they do a great job encouraging and supporting local farming initiatives while taking their hard-worked goods to weekend markets in Cleveland suburbs like Shaker Heights and South Russell. They also operate their own storefront on their land open during growing season which features their own goods as well as stuff from local farms and wineries (cheese, sausages, canned goods, wines, etc.) - again, supporting the local farmers and businesses. One story I always tell people is on one weekend I was desperate for some dill as I had a bunch of baby cuckes at home ready to be pickled. She ran out of the store and came back from the fields a few minutes later handing me this gigantic bouquet of dill weed for about $2. Now I only needed a few sprigs for the pickles but boy the house smelled great for a week! We participated in their CSA one year - a way of buying a share in the farmers' operation. For an up-front lump sum fee, your share nets you a weekly bag of whatever the crops yield that week. This goes on for several months while crops can be harvested. While you don't usually get a choice of what you'll receive (it's whatever is ripening that week!), every bag has an abundance of food. This is perfect for the family that has flexibility in preparing and eating a variety of vegetables from week to week. We received throughout the growing season (not in just one week) corn, potatoes, tomatoes, green beans, radishes, zucchini, butternut squash, yellow squash, kohlrabi, onions, and much more. On weeks which were light on crops, especially in the beginning, Sirna's substituted freshly-ground peanut butter and local honey. Sirna's also does a Fall festival open house with hay rides for the kids. Located along 44 about 2 miles south of 422, Sirna's is definitely worth your while to stop by here one of your summer/fall weekends and support your local farmers.
