Ray's Food Place — Local services in Weed

I've been a Ray's customer in Siskiyou County: Mount Shasta, Weed, Yreka, for my more than 30 years among the "Frozen Chosen." Ray's food place had been around long before my family and I moved here from SF Bay.

Usually a butcher on duty and a produce clerk. They try to provide local meats, this being ranch country. Produce isn't the first thing comes to my as local, but I believe there are a few nuseries that grow, strawberries, which love it up here, and flowers and herbs. Sage grows wild and might be cultivated. We are a little corner of the Emerald Triangle. (Ray's does sell a cannabis balm (CBD), however.

A good little suoermarket that's good for one stop shopping for the most part. Prices moderate moderate compared with other stores...

It's true that many of the prices are more like a convenience store than a grocery store, but the customer service is extremely good. I asked for assistance from an employee who was stocking shelves, and, as one who provides good customer service does, he dropped what he was doing to help me find what I was looking for. And, as one should, when it appeared that they didn't have it, he apologized sincerely and recommended another place in town where I might find it. But after I went about my shopping, he didn't leave it at that. He kept looking, found what I had been searching for, and tracked me down before I left the store. How often do you get...

Came in just to use the restroom. Was my first visit. In looking for the restroom I covered the entire peripheral of the store. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of meats, produce, specialty baked goods, and every staff member I encountered was friendly and helpful. Once in the restroom I was again pleasantly surprised! It was the nicest grocery store restroom I’ve ever been in. Beautiful hardwood floor, large scenic picture of beautiful Mt. Shasta and a lake covering top half of the wall. Lots of other fine details, such as faucet etc.

Yes, indeed this is a five star establishment. Thank you for presenting such a enjoyable...
