The two guys that own this place are genuinely good people. Always helpful, knowledgeable and honest about what they have. The selection is good. You won’t find the prices quite as cheap as a Produce Junction but you also won’t stand in line for 25 mins. The dollar table has helped the wife and I put together many last minute meals with baskets of onions, peppers and the like. I think what makes this place shine is that the grocery store produce is always insanely expensive(3.99 for Honeycrisp Apples?) That was at both Whole Foods and Shoprite while her they were $ 1.49−2.49 depending on season. They supply a lot of the restaurants in the area as well which is a great testament to the quality of their offerings and relationships with their customers. Ship here confidently. It’s cleaner and much more fresh than Plymouth Produce.

Not terribly impressed by this market, but it could be because I visited in late autumn. Cucumbers were rotting and the other produce I saw just didn’t look great. I’ll try back in the spring/summer when there may better options.

Best place to get your fruits and vegetables. Great prices. Way better and much less expensive than in the super market. Also, fresh herbs, nuts, candies, all very healthy. I love to get my spring/summer plants here too. Great variety of flowers, vegetable and herbs for your garden and seasonal goods like pumpkins for Halloween and Christmas trees. Love this place and the boys always offer to carry my bags and load my car.

I had not yet tried this produce market yet, but I wanted to compare it to the rest in the area. Not a terrible place, but it was a very small«store» with a lack of a selection. I was not able to find any noticable deals that were better than the grocery store, but the staff was nice and helpful. For an establishment of their size, I think that the prices could be better and the quality of the fruit could be higher also. But hey, thats just my two cents!

I forgot how much I like this place. For the last several… er, at least ten… years I’ve been lazy and bought my produce from the grocery store, but when I had to stop at Dekalb Produce for a specific errand two weeks ago, I was once again blown away by their quality and fair prices. I don’t get the impression that the vegetables and fruits are on their last legs; actually, they seem pretty fresh. I ate a delicious minneola orange last night from DP, and then an orange at midnight.(In contrast, a place like Produce Junction in Phoenixville is pretty hit or miss, because they don’t let you pick out the produce yourself in most cases and sometimes things like berries really do have to be consumed the same day.) Not the case at Dekalb Produce. In the last few weeks I’ve been back several times, and will keep coming back. Btw, the young guy who checked us out on Friday evening, April 5, was beyond professional – and he had a great, friendly way with the usual customers(and even with this prodigal daughter). Tall guy with short hair – his name might have been Joey.

why have i not been going here for years?! i finally stopped into to check this place out and i left with two bags full of fresh fruits and veggies… for $ 10! they have much more variety than the farm i was going to, and they are way cheaper. i love the $ 1 baskets. these are mainly items that should be used within a couple days, but you can’t beat that price. i would not complain about eating some nectarines for lunch instead of take-out, especially if it would only cost me $ 1. they have the biggest eggplants i have ever seen. not to mention the best tasting watermelon i’ve ever had. this will be my new go-to produce shop. and it’s not just veggies-they also sell nuts, local honey, and some other kitchen items. there’s also flowers for sale, but i didn’t really bother with them since i’m done my gardening for the season. but what i saw seemed to be in good shape. great place for you wallet and your waistline!

HAVE to use a cliché for this one — Service with a Smile! The Barone family’s adorable and they’re produce snobs! Which is a great thing for people who shop here. They will steer you to buy the things that are good rather than the things they’re trying to unload. Location, prices, product, and customer service are their strong suits which is what you need if you’re a savvy consumer. Go here. Today.

Family Run and few like it left. This is one of those places where you can see the generations in action. Get to know the employees, they are all from the same family and they are very good to their costumers. Feel free to ask them for something they don’t have. They’ll find it, and if they can’t they’ll be as disappointed as you. They have the same selection as any big chain and the prices are usually more reasonable. They cater to everyone, they even carry a selection they call«the dollar table» here you can find baskets for a DOLLAR, filled with items that could be sold full price elsewhere. This selection can be perfect for a variety things. I like it when they have tomatoes on «the dollar table,» just a little soft, but excellent for my sauce. I’ve really enjoyed my years of shopping there and I plan to continue shopping to see the next generation and what this current one does with this business.

This place has been around for as long as I can remember, and I still stop by often due to the very good prices and nice selection. Its your«normal» produce selection, but the prices are often much lower than what you will find at a grocery store. On the flipside much of the stock is in a «eat it today or tomorrow» state, but depending on your shopping habits that isn’t a bad thing. They also have their own sauces and dressings(the salad dressings are great), and the owner and his son are always friendly. Gotta love the vintage Rocky posters and pinups that are randomly strewn about too. Worth stopping by, especially since it is right next to Pudge’s.
