Fruits & Veggies near Auburn, MA

“We loved Joe! We were traveling and wanted a good sandwich and hate fast food so we drove out of the way to visit. We called ahead and spoke to Joe and he was so awesome! Made sure our order was just how we wanted it and it was so fresh! Well worth the drive out of the way to have such a good sandwich. Don’t worry about what the outside looks like…you won’t be sorry you stopped in.”

“Always great lobsters. I moved from MA 20 years ago to western NY and have gotten lobsters many times to bring back. They're always live and kicking when I get to Rochester. Nothing beats fresh Maine lobster.”

“Great service and friendly staff, lovely selection of milks, cheese, veggies, snacks, and more! Love the sourdough they offer and premade baked Mac and cheese. Also love the dogs on the property. Always visit here instead of the bigger grocery stores when I can!”

“Al Basrah Halal Market is one of those small, cozy shops that quietly becomes part of your routine before you even realize it.

It's not huge, and the selection isn't endless—but everything it does have is thoughtful. I would stop in every few days for little things: drinks, sweets, chocolates, sometimes fruit, sometimes something new I hadn't seen before. They carry a mix of halal and imported goods—baklava, candies, dried and canned items, teas, and a fridge/freezer section with drinks and frozen foods. Everything feels clean, organized, and well cared for, and the prices are genuinely excellent—much better than what you find in typical supermarkets.

What really kept me coming back, though, wasn't just the products—it was the feeling of the place. The store is calm and welcoming, never crowded, with a quiet energy that makes it easy to browse and take your time. And the staff are genuinely kind—warm, friendly, and attentive without ever being intrusive. There's a natural hospitality here that makes you feel comfortable and seen, and it left me curious about their stories and the culture they bring to this little corner of Worcester.

This store feels like a small cultural anchor in the neighborhood. It's steady, sweet, and meaningful in a way that's easy to overlook. During my time in Worcester, it became more than a convenience stop—it became part of my rhythm, a little place of comfort I looked forward to visiting.

I'm truly grateful this place exists. I'd recommend stopping in—not just for the drinks and sweets, but to experience a small, human corner of Worcester that brings warmth, care, and a sense of community.”

“Harvest Moon Fruit Baskets/Commercial Fruit is absolutely wonderful! We needed to get a fruit basket and a basket of candy and snacks to a Worcester Hospital and Phil was great at making it happen! He took my call first thing in the morning and had both baskets at the hospital within hours on the same day! The nurses and staff were so appreciative and said that the baskets were wonderful. Thank you for the excellent service and providing such nice baskets at a very reasonable price.”

“The perfect place to get those ingredients only found at your country for that home dish you want to taste once more away from home.Staff is very friendly and helpful.They always help you in every possible way. Recommended.”

“Great prices and surprisingly fast check out even when it looks busy. You need a quarter for a shopping cart and they don’t provide bags but it’s well worth it because it keeps their prices very low.”

“I couldn’t be happier to see this orchard brought back to life under the new ownership. You can tell right away how much work, care, and heart they’ve put into restoring the grounds and creating a welcoming atmosphere for the community after so many years of the orchard not being cared for or maintained.
They’ve already hosted several events, and every single one has had a fantastic turnout. The activities are well-planned, family-friendly, and clearly made with the community in mind. It’s so nice to see this orchard becoming a place where people can gather again.
Huge congratulations to the new owners Alanna and Justin for stepping up, saving a beloved local spot, and turning it into something even better. If you haven’t visited yet, you absolutely should this orchard is thriving, and it’s only getting better!”
