Affordable, convenient, and great selection of produce. There is also an area where you can buy dried goods in bulk, bring your own container or use one of the containers at the store.

Fabulous store! I’m slowly trying to transition into living more “plastic/ package free” and this store makes it easier to do. Don’t worry if you forget your reusable containers, they have you covered with paper bags etc. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.I always receive friendly fun positive customer service. I’m impressed that the prices for organic items purchased in bulk are generally quite competitive. It great! I get to reduce my environmental impact at a reasonable price! The bargain hunter in me thanks you!I also love the use one/replace one jars and containers folks leave for others to use. No worries if you forgot your reusable containers (or buy more than you planned!), the enviro community has got you covered; just bring an extra one next time and keep the love going.

Small grocery store, probably the size of a convenience store... and since this pocket of Somerville doesn't have an actual/full-sized grocery store, neighborhood produce IS convenient. It has all the produce I usually get, a great selection of grains, local dairy products, but what I love about this place is they also throw in unique items that I can't find elsewhere: ORGANIC sunflower seed butter, Moroccan preserved lemons, gourmet mushrooms, chili oil made with grape seed oil, Vermont goat cheese. There are usually a few staff members working, and for some reason I always get this young man at checkout, and he's really memorable because every time he asks me about at least one of my items -- asking me how I cook with it or if I recommend it, etc. I enjoy these little interactions very much! Random side notes, they keep a water bowl outside for dogs and it is right by a green line extension stop.

Neighborhood Produce is the most intelligent and welcomed addition for food availability in Somerville. They offer every staple and luxury item that I could wish for, including vegan alternatives. So very happy with the warm interiors and the friendly staff.

Very handy and I love the bulk products, so you can bring your own containers to refill, and avoid plastic waste. I'm now using the dishwasher detergent, shampoo, and other cleaning products, all with bringing my own containers. Also milk in bottles you return.Friendly staff, great selection, welcoming atmosphere!!

This grocery store may be small, but somehow still usually has exactly what we need. The local and seasonal foods are extra fresh. They have fancy locally made donuts in the morning, fresh bread, a surprising amount of items for those with dietary restrictions, refillable pantry foods, refillable soaps for bathroom and kitchen, and cut flowers. Also, the people working there are very friendly and helpful. This neighborhood really needed some kind of grocery store, and I'm glad we got such a fabulous one.

We usually go to the Winter hill location but we come here when we need to grab more than just a bag full. It’s always surprising how you can essentially fit a star market into a shop this small. Makes you realize larger grocery stores just have to much stuff. Staff is always super friendly. The events they put on always look like fun too.

Perfect little grocery store with almost everything you’d need!It’s incredible how much can fit in this small store: produce, pantry goods, dairy (strong non dairy options too), frozen food, bulk foods (nuts, dried fruit, pasta, grains, beans, flour, sugar, tea, spices, and more), kitchen staples, and cleaning supplies. I’m sure I missed a lot in that list.You can bring your own containers to refill liquid soaps/shampoos/cleaning solutions from Cleenland, bulk foods, spices, tea, and even vinegar and oils. Great range of everything and strong selection of goods from local purveyors.Big grocery stores can be too stressful sometimes. Neighborhood Produce is my new go-to!

I am beside myself with glee!!! I have been dreaming about a store like this one for so long and now my dreams have come true! Locally owned. Sustainability centered. I am in love!!! Finally, a place where I can buy pasta, rice, and beans without creating waste from the packaging. Amazing! I believe that BYO container stores are the way of the future & I feel so lucky to have such a progressive business steps from my home! Not only do my values align with this business but the friendliness of the staff made me feel perfectly at home. This is a welcoming place for everyone with excellent people and product selection. Plus they carry cleanland's product line too! So many fantastic things wraped into one perfect shop! Consider me a regular!
