Delicious Jems (DJ) Farmers Market — Attraction in Calgary

If I could, I would give no star. I don't know why they have hired a rude cashier to serve customers in that market. Today I went there with my dad for the first time. I asked a lady who was working there where I could find a basket and she told me she didn't know. After I found the baskets I saw her carrying some baskets to put them back where I got it from. That was a small incident so I just let it go and started shopping. While my dad was picking out peaches from an open box which other people were picking out fruits from the cashier all of a sudden started shouting at him waving her hands very aggressively telling him to stop picking out fruits from that box and pick it from another box. There were no signs saying that we should not pick out fruits from that box. I then tried to calm her down very calmly but she was continuing to yell to the point that other workers had to come to calm her down and instead apologizing she told me in front of other customers that I was abusive while I kept calm through out the whole time. No one apologized to us and when I said I'm leaving the cashier said thank you. I don't recommend anyone setting foot...

I have been frequenting DJ'S Market for many years now and have always loved their products and the feel of the space. It is quaint and real, unlike the farmers Market stands that are plastic and boring and over priced. DJ's has charm and personality thanks mainly now to the charming and very attractive owner, Michele, who brings personality and such amazing positivity to the environment. The level of customer service is incredible!!!!! Their pricing is fair in a challenging, perishable product market and the quality is second to none, to the best of their ability. DJ's reminds me of the best markets that I have experienced around the world and we should be thankful to have someone that wants to bring that to the Calgary market and to work 7 days a week to provide a venue to showcase Alberta and BC fresh produce. Please spread the word about DJ'S and let's keep them around for many years to come....

I've been shopping here for years but today is the experience that stands out above all I was picking through cherries like the two ladies before me for which nothing was said. He, I assume the owner or staff comes up to me and singles me out. No sign anywhere! He tells me that I can't do this. That I need to take what's on top and random bunches. I apologized and proceeded to do that. Then he continues on how what I'm doing is unfair to other customers and bad for business. Then He askes me if I'm done, he just would not stop even after I'm following his instructions . It felt like he was trying to pick a fight with me or something. I complied with what you asked. What's your problem? To me it's just not worth it. I don't need the problem. My wife can shop there if she likes unless you chase her off too but I really don't want to come...
