Good Earth Produce

If I could give them 0 stars I would. Right on the door it says service dogs allowed, as it should per law. I walked un, first thing I walked up to him and asked if he wanted to see his service ID. Despite me saying this he started to get hostile demanding I take him out. I said he is a fully certified and trained dog and he has his tags. He started to raise his voice saying that he does not, as I am trying to show him the county tans on his collar.
Finally looking at the tag he said that the day didn’t say he was a service dog. I pointed out that it said solano County service dog with his ID number from the county. He still threw a fit about it. We ended up having to leave because it triggered me. Do not support these people. I’m all for supporting locally, but I will not waste my money here !

If I could give this 0 stars, I would. My mother and I brought home some honey which we bought from this produce store. When I began to prepare my meal, I discovered a dead bee in the honey! It’s safe to say I will never be returning here.

Oh goodness with the reviews on this business.
So this is a little mom and pop store that sells locally grown (some of their produce they grow themselves right on the property – which you can see from the parking lot) produce, dried good, and random canned/​jarred goods. They also have a small selection of organic produce, flowers, and wine.
The majority of their produce is ripe and ready to eat, some are even over ripe so when you walk in the store smells exactly like ripe/​overly ripe fruit/​veg. However, their pricing is very cheap or competitive on the majority of their items, but for produce they clearly didn’t grow themselves (like the produce in their fridge with produce stickers on them) are expensive for the quality/​place so you might as well buy them from a mainstream grocery store.
The reason why I’m rating them low is because
a) the customer service has gone downhill, before the woman up front would be very nice and happy but now she seems very tired and grumpy – something that happens when the stress of owning your own business creeps up.
b) produce is overly ripe which isn’t nice if you wanted to wait a day or two before using it
c) this place feels dirty, I’m not saying they ARE dirty, but it feels grimy. This could be due to their rusting shelves or the smell of the store, but whatever it is makes me feel icky after walking in.
They do get two stars because
a) they have the best yellow apples, super sweet, and I like mine mushy so it’s great that I don’t have to wait for them to get older. I know it’s ironic I’m marking them down for having produce that is too ripe and then saying it’s a good thing here, but for me I don’t mind ripe apples, for other people this would be a big deal (especially since 90% of their produce is overly ripe).
b) It’s a local business that actually does grow their own produce, give them a break.

Some of the worst produce I’ve gotten from a market. Everything we bought was in edible the next day. You are better off buying pesticide ridden vegetables from Safeway.

Incredibly rude. This place is meant to be avoided. Save yourself the stop and stay on the highway

Who hates babies? The crazy lady who owns this dump of a grocery store…

Unfortunately the lady that work today around 3−5pm on July 13, 2014 was very nasty n mean to my 2 yrs old niece and his parent for making an emergency stop on the way back home in SF… Until the owner takes action on this mean lady, she should not work there… Unfriendly to children and using F bomb…

Horrible people own/​manage this place. DO NOT support this business run by a rude, heartless woman that wouldn’t let my friend use their bathroom to clean up their baby who had thrown up on himself in the car.

If you like to support mean grumpy people, by all means go here. If you like to support old racist ladies, by all means shop here. If you support cold hearted baby hater folks, definitely come here and spend you’re hard earned money.
Here’s my story, i was on my way home on a long car ride with my wife and my precious 2 year old son. Unfortunately, our son got car sick and vomited in his car seat and started crying uncontrollably due to his discomfort and having vomit all over his clothes, poor guy. So we had to make an emergency stop at this location, we had no choice as there was no where else close by.
My wife went into this store and asked politely if she could use their sink or bathroom to wash my son’s face off. The lady refused, and told us to use a porto potty outside. Ok, kinda messed up, but i can respect not letting strangers use your sink. So my wife took our son to the car, sitting with him in the front seat trying to clean him off and calm him down, while i was in the back with paper towels and wet wipes trying to clean his car seat to make it suitable to sit in again.
Once i was done, i exited the car and threw out the paper towels into a garbage can outside in front of their store. Well, right when that happened the old lady with glasses came storming out of the store and went crazy. She started screaming at me for throwing garbage in her garbage can. Said she told my wife not to throw diapers in the garbage. There was no diaper i threw away, but hey ok, whatever. I tried to apologize, but she had nothing of it. She continued screaming at me in anger cause she has to «clean that mess» in the garbage. Demanded we leave now or else she would call the sheriff. So i said ok, i’m leaving, but she wasn’t waiting. Even though i had to have time to put my 2 year old child in the car seat safely before i could leave, she continued to scream at me and throw insults at me.
She said she felt sorry i had to make up excuses for my wife. uh, what excuses? She said she won’t let her bathe my dirty baby in her sink. ok, come on lady, i just wanted to rinse his face off.
All is fine if u want to refuse to help me, i understand there’s people in this world with no sympathy for parents and their kids, but to scream at me, throw racist remarks at me, threaten to call the sheriff? What kind of person is this?
If this older lady with glasses is the owner, you need take a look at yourself in the mirror and see what a horrible person you are. If you aren’t the owner, i’m asking the owner to please fire this horrible person you employ.
All others, please do not give business to this store. A very rude, crazy, racist lady works there.

It’s unfortunate you have to leave at least one star to leave a review. After I learned of the way this establishment treated a friend of mine today, a one star rating is an egregious platitude. Any business that cannot be sympathetic to a sick child (especially on a hot day) has no place in a community. I can assure the Better Business Bureau and anyone with a wallet I will never trade here… and I encourage Unilocal readers to so the same. Perhaps they should consider a name change from ‘Good Earth’ to ‘We Suck’.

DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS.
There’s apparently a crazy lady who works here who refused to let my friends use the bathroom to clean up their sick baby, or even throw paper towels in the garbage.
To whoever owns this place, you seriously need to take action. Crazy Lady, if you own this place, have someone else manage it because you will lose business if you continue to do it. Sucks if you actually have good stuff in your store, because I would not recommend anyone to go to this place as long as you’re there.

It is certainly easy to get to this produce store from Highway 80. The store is at the end of the Midway exit from WB-​80. You can see the planted fields as you go down the driveway. It is also very easy to get back on the freeway.
The market sells the organic produce that they grow and other locally grown produce. They carry a lot of dried products. One time we stopped there was an amazing variety of dried beans and lentils. And they always have a good selection of olives. The prices are reasonable.
As far as I can tell it is open year around. I suspect that during the winter they do bring in some produce from other areas.
S and I always leave the store with several bags of fresh produce.
