Crown Produce Market — Local services in Valdosta

We were pleasantly surprised by this super cute fruit, vegetable, meat, and gourmet goods store. The owner introduced himself and shook our hands as we walked in, and he gave us a brief history of the place and how to shop for items. Most items are in expertly organized coolers, prices are very clear, and everything, from the huge ruby-red tomatoes to the tri-colored carrots and baby portabella mushrooms, looked like they had been already washed and ready to eat! I was giddy that I could buy Vidalia onions, which I weirdly cannot find in stores around here. In the refrigerated room there were freezers full of fresh food – I believe he mentioned that almost everything was local. A few yards away in a separate store housed the butcher portion. As a vegan I was not interested in that part, lol, but they had a to-die-for gourmet goods section; we bought white wine infused crackers with champagne infused cheese. We should have picked up that bottle of wine, too. I love that the butcher pegged my husband’s New York accent. My husband bought a sausage dog with mustard that he finished eating before we even got back to the car. Can't...

I love picking up fresh fruits and veggies here to blend up and feed to my babies! It’s absolutely my favorite in town and just happens to be the most convenient. The owner, Mark, is the best and the ladies that work there, Kim & Rinda (there’s another lady I really love too) are the sweetest. They also have great turkeys and cakes for Thanksgiving! I’m always so sad when they close after Thanksgiving for a couple months. They also have a beautiful selection of flowers as well as a cooler section with cut up fruits, cakes, casseroles, butter, and other misc goodies. Coming here is like an adult candy store ☺️ they will take GREAT care...

I send so many people to this friendly, produce market!! They have so many phenomenal products to chose from, and all of the fresh produce is of amazing quality. I have never had a bad experience. Not only do I send a lot of people here, but I purchase products from here from their non perishable section, to make gift baskets to send to friends and family. So, sad they are closing for the winter season, but will happy to see them again in...
