GreenStar, a major benefit to living around Ithaca

Reviewed By Donna Eaton / September 21, 2009

I have shopped at Greenstar for 20 years so have accrued a long list of favorites: lettuce, feta cheese, lemon and olive oil for a great Greek salad topped with gourmet olives from the deli. From the deli, curried turkey salad or macro greens. Bulk herbs and nuts at great prices. Beyond the standard basil and chili powder, check out the fun herbs for making potpourri.

Not Perfect

Reviewed By Kari Tetzlaff / September 18, 2009

I am so glad that Greenstar is in Ithaca, and I wish it could reach what I see as its potential. I love that it's a cooperative, I love the ambiance, I love the fact that you can use reusuable containers to take home maple syrup and peanut butter, I love the focus on in season produce etc. On the downside, Greenstar produce doesn't consistently look as spiffy as that in Wegmans, there isn't much (any?) selection in fresh meat and fish, and the bread doesn't thrill me. So if you want to make a single trip for groceries and you are not a vegetarian, Greenstar is disappointing. I've moved to an area that has a Whole Foods. Whole Foods would be a good model for Greenstar, except for the fact that the CEO is a naughty libertarian and is alienating the customer base!
