Very clean and organized. Lots of spices a good selection of cheese. They also have Mexican products for a good price, including cheap corn tortillas

I have been a customer of Apple Farm Market for the past 25 years, however, because of the recent developments that the store has undergone with the change in ownership, I am sorry to say that I, will no longer be shopping at this new incarnation called Lena Farm Market!One of the most obvious changes, and there are a few, is the decrease in fresh produce! There are a few items that I have been purchasing here for many years, now they are no longer available! One also notices, pretty quickly, that there have been significant price increases!There is more of an emphasis on prepackaged items, which honestly, doesn’t feel like the right vibe for our neighbourhood!I also must mention the layout. It’s ridiculous! Yesterday, (probably my last visit to the store) I had 2 tomatoes, but because of the new dividing tape for entering & exiting, I was forced to walk around the whole store when the till was only a few feet away! I realize that the idea is to have people walk through the entire store & hopefully purchase more, unfortunately, all it accomplished was to annoy me and to convince me to not want to shop there anymore!On a positive note, the ladies at the front are still there, and at this point remain the only redeeming features of Lena Farm Market!

This market is tidy, conveniently located, has a great selection for the size of the space and always extremely kind customer service highly recommended.

I recently discovered the nearby grocery store in my new neighbourhood, and I'm positively impressed. This store has everything I need for my daily shopping, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The store is well-organized and clean. It seems they just renovated it. Five stars, without a doubt!

The transition to Lena Farm Market from Apple Farm Market has been disappointing. Less selection of produce, more of it is prepackaged in styrofoam, and prices are higher. I was hopeful this was a short term impact but it seems not.

Less fresh vegetables than with previous owners , and you put the prices up. Why did you increase prices on vegetables ?

Used to be so much better when it was Apple Farm. I have been a customer here for many years and it's changed so much since the new ownership. Selection is much smaller, not nearly as much produce to choose from anymore. Very little of it is local. New owners don't seem to care about suggestions or requests from customers. The cashiers have always been so kind and bubbly, they're the only thing that remain from Apple Farm and I'm so glad they're still there. The new store is mostly packaged foods and fridge items that you could easily get at one of the chain stores across the street. They've started packaging things like peppers into saran-wrapped styrofoam trays so if you need a jalapeno for example you are forced to buy like 4 or 5 of them. Prior to the new owners it was a really nice place to shop, now it just depresses me and I wish it could go back to the way it was. Will be looking for other places to buy my fruits and veggies, don't really want to go there anymore. I wish the new owners would listen to feedback and bring back more produce especially local veggies and fruits. This is why so many people loved Apple Farm in the first place.

Great store for everyday grocery needs. I've been going there almost everyday since forever. Staff are the kindest, produce is fresh and amazing overall. Seems like they're giving the store an overhaul as I can see cleaner and newer shelves/fridges already. Kudos to the owners :)

Since moving to Van this place was my go to store for the freshest produce and wide variety. It looks like there has been a change of ownership and the offering isn’t the same. Sad - I loved the small corner local feel it had before and the unique variety of offering. Disappointed with the change

AFM has been my go-to for fresh fruits and veggies for years. However it appears ownership has changed hands, and they're "gentrifying" what was essentially a friendly little corner produce stand. It's almost more of a Dan D Pack store now. There isn't as deep a selection of fresh fruits and veggies and it appears they've expanded the freezer section. Can't say I'm impressed so far, in fact a little disappointed.

Was way better when it was Apple Farm, there is a lot less variety of produce and the layout is awkward now. I also saw someone who appeared to be a manager or owner, yelling aggressively at a staff member who was unloading a truck of produce. Used to be my go to spot for groceries, is not anymore!

For 6 years, Apple Farm has been a staple for my everyday grocery shopping. They always have the best produce, by far, and they have all the necessities at great prices. The folks who work at Apple are absolute gems as well.

Not impressed, prices through the roof but when I got blueberries, some nice ones were on the top, and the floor sweepings and inedible pieces were hidden at the bottom, not a few, but like a good 1/4 of the container. Won't be buying here again.
