New City Farm Market — Attraction in Woodbridge Township

When I first walked in the store, I was a little put off because I thought it was just a fruit market. To my pleasant surprise, there was a lot of different things that you could buy there, and it saved me from going to the supermarket. Some things are overpriced such as minced garlic from Goya. They wanted almost 7 dollars for it, but the vegetables were priced low and they looked good even though there wasn’t a huge selection like but that was just because my expectation was that it was just a fruit vegetable market. Apparently this store has changed hands since the last time I went there. I was excited at the prospect of being able to go here and shop locally for small business owners and with it being less than a half a mile away from my mom‘s house my goal was to go there and get lettuce, but I wind up getting a number of things That I needed from the supermarket and so when I left there, I felt satisfied.

When I got home, there was a whole different story. I bought red leaf lettuce, which was rotten to the core on the inside. I had to throw it out. I also bought Romain lettuce, which was mostly the darker green leaves and less of the crisp part of the lettuce, which disappointed me a little, but I figured I could still make do I washed and cut up the lettuce and I used the pre-cut onions, celery, and carrots that I bought also from this fruit market. And I made my salad. When I was eating it, I didn’t really notice anything except that the leaves were not really what I like. I don’t love all Bert green leaves found at the top. But whatever. I ate it. An hour later and for five hours more, I was sick as a dog. I had to take two different stomach medicines, and Tums because something in that salad did not agree with me and then I start freaking out because the first one that I threw away was rotten so it made me feel like this lettuce wasn’t that fresh or maybe it was the pre-chopped onion, celery or carrots. All I know is that I almost called out of work today. Luckily, I felt better when I got up, even though I have still have a little bit of a stomachache I called them this morning and told them that the red leaf lettuce is rotten and they need to take it off the shelves and I told the lady that I was really sick last night. She was so nonchalant about it and said OK and we hung up. I don’t love that. She should’ve said come and get a different head of lettuce, but she didn’t offer anything. And therefore, I waited till I got home from work to write this review.

Unfortunately, I will not be going back here again. I usually go to Rahway Farmers Market and I don’t think I’ve ever had this issue.

I didn’t take a picture of it, but I should have. Because when I tell you that the red leaf lettuce head was slimy and rotten on the inside to the point that it should’ve never been put...

This is my favorite place to go for fresh produce, quality cold cuts, and fresh rolls. My family has been going here for as long as I can remember (we've lived in town for almost 20 years) and they truly are the best. I really only trust their produce so we always try to shop here rather than a supermarket which usually only has decent stuff. The people who work here are SO nice. From what I can tell, they don't speak much English but it's never mattered to me. The guy who works the deli is especially sweet and I always leave with a smile when I interact with him. Prices are fair and obviously reflect what's in season, plus they have just about anything you could need! I'd recommend this place to...

I just left the Main Street Farm Market. Unfortunately I will not be going back there. How do you run a store where no one at the meat counter speaks English. I asked the Man behind the counter if he spoke English and he Si, I asked him a question and, in mid sentence he turned and walked away. I asked the girls at the register if anyone at the meat counter speaks English and she said that's the problem, they don't. Also, the Spanish music was blasting you had to yell to be heard. I always shop on Main St., to support the local merchants. But unfortunately I won't be going back...
