| - If you're not in the inner city (or you are and you feel like a short drive), Blush Lane is a great organic option.
Good:
-I love the small shop feel of this place, and how many amazing things are tucked in to the shop. Bonus points for stocking Sharon's coconut milk iced "cream" in Dutch Chocolate (a.k.a. the best thing ever/the hardest thing to find).
-They grow a lot of their own produce, and focus on local sourced products, which rocks.
Not as good:
-The deli case wasn't "manned", and it took me a while to chase someone down who could help me. The cashier looked a little bit alarmed when I asked her to cut me some prosciutto. We moved past the awkwardness, but I wish it had been easier to get the service I needed.
-It's muy pricey, even edging out competitors I'm familiar with. The local + quality + price balance is reasonable, but checking out with a few items at $60 makes it clear to me that I couldn't afford to buy all, or even most, of my organic items here.
Overall, a great place to stop in, check out, and enjoy the best of what local and organic have to offer.
