Fisher’s Country Store

Fishers is the top of my list for stores in Bedford! They offer lots and lots of local and Amish farmed products. Every time I go to fishers I stumble across something I didn’t realize they sold. Fishers has everything from Bulk baking goods, Birch Beer, Bulk Spices, Bulk Candies, Local Honey, Local Bee Pollen, Local Maple Syrup, Coconut Oils, Lots of Gluten free flours, and on an on and on. They also have an amazing Deli with 30+ meats and cheeses as well as fresh Bacon on the slab, and Sausage.
If your in Bedford for any reason you have to go to Fishers, Its an amazing little Gem that will not disappoint!

Ahhh… Fisher’s. Of all the places in Bedford, Fisher’s has to be my favorite (possible tie with Hoke-​e-​Geez.)
I moved here a few months ago from crunchy Austin, Texas, home of amazing grocery stores, daily farmer’s markets and increasingly specific vegetarian-​friendly restaurants (Probiotics? Yes, please!) When I arrived in tiny Bedford, I strolled into the local grocery store and felt my heart break in two. Visiting the «vegetarian» section in the produce aisle was like taking a family vacation to Walley World, only to find it closed. I should have known. What was I thinking? Now what am I going to do? I’m going to starve to death. I won’t even make it through my two-​year contract. I think I passed a cemetery on my way in, maybe I should go ahead and buy a plot for myself…
Deeply saddened and wondering if I could convince my mother to help me drive back to Austin, I turned to the interwebs. I googled. To my incredible relief, I found the Fisher’s website, which lists their incredible list of products – quinoa, nutritional yeast, whole wheat lasagna, textured vegetable protein! Stacie food DOES exist in Bedford!
Like most places in Bedford, Fisher’s shuts down at 5pm on weekdays, but not on FRIDAYS! I couldn’t wait to get there and when my three-​mile journey finally ended, I was still shocked to find so many good things in such a tiny store. Two full aisles packed with an enormous variety of baking/​cooking essentials, snacks, candy, tea, coffee, you name it! I probably spent two hours studying the inventory. I suddenly regretted not bringing two reusable bags with me (rookie mistake.) My boss thinks it’s hilarious that I brought both my sister and mother here on their respective visits to my new home, but anyone who likes food (especially cooking their own – and BAKING) could appreciate the selection of fresh produce (kinda sketchy at times, but good prices,) deli meats and cheeses and dry goods.
Oh, and they accept credit cards! They aren’t credit card snobs like some places – Amex and Discover are both accepted. The ladies (I have yet to see a dude) who work here are very kind and can tell you where everything is (it’s easy to overlook items.) Parking is always available, and free llama viewings! (:

What a find! Quality meats and cheese, along with other goodies that you don’t find in typical grocery stores. I would not drive three hours just to shop there, but if I were driving through the area, I would make it a priority. They have a large selection of deli cheese, that ranges from standard fare (i.e. swiss, american, cheddar) to more diverse flavors (i.e. colby pepper jack, pepperoni cheese, chipotle cheddar and goat cheese). The deli meats looked great and contained as much diversity as the cheese groups. We ordered a pound of roast beef, which was tender and rare (albeit a little fatty), and two pounds of sweet itailian sausage, which was amazing. They have all types of bulk candy, dried fruit and high quality fresh produce selections. I could have spent all day in this tiny store. The deli prices are considerably lower than you would find at a commercial supermarket, and you would expect to give up a little quality or cleanliness to achieve these price points but the store was clean and food was of high quality. The employees were mostly friendly considering how close it was to closing time upon our arrival.
