They offer a unique wide variety from local vendors, organic products, plants and flowers and specialty goods. We purchased some of the bulk candy and a specialty cheese. It's hard to mix a variety of candy because each one is a different price and has to be packaged separately.

Ward's has so much packed into a small space, so I took my time to look around a little and not just rush through. This has got to be the friendliest grocery store in Florida, if not the entire South! Peoples' hands were busy stocking shelves, beers, yogurt, carrots, and soaps, are all placed on shelves by caring hands. Good food with good prices, and no corporate phony greeting. You get sincerity with your groceries; it makes a difference!

I bought steaks, hamburger, dog bones, pork chops, and a few others. I felt sick almost immediately after eating a steak from here. The best day my dog got sick after chewing kn one of their dog bones. Two days later I made pork chops that tasted like metal and blood. And finally grilled a hamburger that tasted gritty and stunk! $100 of meat went in the trash after that.
