is there anybody who also buys vegetables and fruits and meat in C-town supermarket? I just notice that, compared with Giant, which hangs up the apparent sign about that they only sell the vegetables and fruits and meat from local farms, I do not find such kind of info in C-twon.

So, shall I concern about food safety about C-town?

Since I don't know what C-town is, I must not shop there! I like to go to local produce stands or farmers markets for fruits and veggies, but also go to Valley Farm market on Emaus Avenue in Allentown.

Valley Farm market has two locations, one in Allentown and one in Bethlehem. Here's the Allentown one - Valley Farm Market - Allentown, PA, 18103 - Citysearch I also like this farmers market - Home | Emmaus Farmers' Market There's also an open air market on Emaus Avenue a block east of Valley Farm Market.

If you are shopping at C-TOWN at 702 N 4Th Street Allentown, PA,
then I am told that the Produce Junction 1730 Macarthur Rd, Whitehall, PA 18052 is exceptionally good, but I believe the prices are high.


If you are shopping at the C-TOWN at 250 Line Street, Easton PA then I agree with the earlier recommendation of going to Valley Farms Valley Farm Market at 1880 Stefko Blvd, Bethlehem, PA 18017. Unfortunately that is another 10 miles.

Have you tried
Zingales Produce Market 645 Northampton St Easton, PA 18042
Jacob's Produce at 692 Northampton Street, Easton, PA 18042

I am told Zingales is pretty good.

If you are on the bus, the 106 bus will take you from Line Street right past both stores. The 216 bus will take you within 500' of Zingales (get off when it turns onto Walnut).

If you have a car, then try going try Valley Farms on Stefko Blvd. If you are on bus, the route 101 will go from Easton Square to Stefko Blvd, but you are looking at close to 40 minutes each way.

Hi,

I shop at both Valley Farm Market on Emmaus Ave as well as Produce Junction on Mac Arther in Whitehall.
Both offer extremely fresh local produce.
