Auburn Produce Market

*Now closed, boo*
We stumbled on this place the other day, although they have apparently been around for over a year now. I’m glad I found them.
A great selection of produce, very fresh, extremely inexpensive. For instance, their broccoli was 50 cents a pound less than the Top Foods down the street. They had a good selection of fruits, although all their citrus was Chilean (it is March) and I am not a fan of buying fruit from the other side of the world. Aside from that, I liked the store alot. Also they carry various sauces, broths, and spices.
I am looking forward to hitting this shop once all the local produce starts coming in.

Almost too cheap to believe… Please Please Please shop here… I don’t want to see them go the way of Cherry Lane in Maple Valley.
This is a retired father and electrical contractor son who have turned a dead Jiffy Lube into a really cute store with lots of samples and a great variety. I found them through this article at the Auburn Reporter’s web site —

I spent $ 4.40 and got — 1 8 inch Broccoli top, 1 5 inch yellow onion, 3 «Mexican onions» (baby walla walla onions with tasty green onion type tops) and a bag of 5 washed small-​ish russet potatoes from the «Buck Bin».
They have a wall of sauces and mixes and pasta that will make the pickiest gourmet happy.
A grass skirt wrapped cart features coconuts, papaya, mangoes and other tropical type fruits.
There is a salsa and chip sampling station, fruit leather sampling area, and 5 – 6 types of apples all 99 cents a pound.
Open daily from 7:30 am to 7 pm
