“We got pumpkins, some great produce, and these beautiful flowers. I’ve been here a number of times and they have some great stuff! Super reasonably priced too!”
“Nice selection of fresh produce and packaged products. Still have lots of pumpkins, squash and gourds, plus a corn maze! Take a look at the gourd and squash decoration at work made with a purchase from Growers Outlet.”
“The farm grows a wide selection of produce and their farm store sells not only their produce but other tasty local items including meat, take and bake pies, granola and honey”
“This place has been there forever. I have been to many farmer markets but this is my favorite. Sometimes the farmer himself is there. The staff is really nice and the selections are good. Its all local from their farm or other local farms. Always whatever is in season so I suggest you call first. Way better than the grocery store. Everything taste so much better. And they have a U-Pick.”
“Today we went to pick up some blueberries, the owner was very nice she helped us and answered all our questions , the farm is cute and the berries were delicious.”
“My sister gave me a 2.5 bag of your frozen IQF Blueberries,100% Highbush Blueberries. They are absolutely the best blueberries ever!! The natural sweetness and flavor are out of this world!! I love eating them frozen or particularly thawed.”
“Fantastic family farm! They have a very cute store front where you can pick up seasonal fruits and vegetables, beef, eggs, milk and some other fun stuff. Super nice people. During the summer they offer u-pick berries and in the Fall they have a sweet pumpkin patch. I love this place and look forward to it opening every year when the weather warms up.”
“They are open on Saturday from 7am to 11 am. Overnight parking for 2 trucks. Fast unloading. Don’t follow GPS. Take exit 17 after Love’s turn right then go straight to Division str and turn left and left turn on 302 Avenue.”
“Been dealing with this company for quite a few years. I have seen the good, the bad and the ugly, but they always come out on top. Best Organic products in the Pacific Northwest!”
“Fantastic little fruit stand. This is my favorite place for strawberries— they’re the best! The other produce is always so fresh as well. Staff are very friendly as well.”
“I have lived in a few different places all within this neighborhood since 2010. This has been the corner store for all of those locations. I've never had a negative experience. The staff is fairly consistent and everybody is friendly and respectful.
There's A LOT that happens in and around this neighborhood; per its location the front of the store and its parking lot is almost a default magnet to situations and people who might not be having the best day. I've witnessed many situations with various magnitudes of severity over the years. All situations were handle decently and with dignity by this store staff. Even situations that almost automatically would've resulted in any other store calling the police. I have witnessed staff be absolute, direct and firm but still respectful and successful at getting a person to move along or de-escalating a situation long enough to clear it from the grounds.
Also one notable experience is the safety of a skirt that seems to always be at the forefront of the mind of those that work there. Especially at night but any time and especially if there are people hanging in front of the store (for any reason even patronizing a business next-door) I have witnessed store staff escort women and children to their vehicle or stand watch until the customer is secured in their vehicle. To my knowledge, no one asked for this but that makes it all the more genuine & welcomed. That's just one of the reasons that even though I now live 20-25 mins away, I still patronize this store often and I intended to keep doing so.
PS - can we talk about the music that is often playing in the store? Better than any dance club in the city. I absolutely love it!”
“I had an absolutely fantastic time visiting Velvet Acres pumpkin patch with my family! ? The employees were not only kind but also incredibly considerate, making our trip even more enjoyable. The corn maze was a blast and provided just the right level of challenge. ?The fields were brimming with an amazing selection of pumpkins to choose from, which made our pumpkin-picking adventure a delight. ? Moreover, the farm had some adorable sweet animals, charming stores, and high-quality vendors to explore, adding to the overall experience. ??️Thank you, Velvet Acres, for making our day so memorable and fun! We can't wait to come back. ??”
“The bakery here is great! The macaroons are some of the best I've ever had, although be careful what you get as there were flys in some of the containers. Also fresh local fruits that aren't overpriced like some of the farmer markets.”
