Enjoy this guest post from Leeann Wright.
Remus Farms is the best "farm stand" around! Their selection of locally sourced produce is amazing. Plus, their policy of "if you're not happy, we're not happy" is fantastic - I followed a thread regarding tomatoes for canning. One gentlemen purchased what appeared to be ripe tomatoes, but when he got them home and started chopping, discovered they were not ripe inside. Remus replaced all the tomatoes purchased - that was awesome!
I went there this past weekend to get tomatoes, onions, and peppers for canning tomato sauce and salsa. I have been going there for several years and still continue to be impressed with the variety of the produce - all at really good prices. What I like most is their efforts to source as much as they can locally. I'm thrilled to see produce from down the street, but also from states close by, such as peaches from Michigan.
"What a treat!
I could have very well managed by myself,
but that personal touch from the
fantastic folks at Remus Farms was so thoughtful and kind. "
This year, canning tomatoes were high on my list and I had a little one in tow. When I arrived, I put my little one in my baby carrier, grabbed a cart, and started browsing. Now, while I'm still new at motherhood, I'm starting to get fairly adept at doing things "one-handed" and managed to get all of my selections into my cart without a problem (which included a bushel of tomatoes). As I went to checkout, an older lady kindly took my cart for me and started to unload at the cashier. The young lady behind the till called for "carryout assistance" and I was escorted to my car by two gentlemen who kindly loaded my bushel of tomatoes and other items into my trunk.
What a treat! I could have very well managed by myself, but that personal touch from the fantastic folks at Remus Farms was so thoughtful and kind. I will continue to make it a point to support their business and refer others who want friendly, thoughtful staff and local produce at great prices!
