Though I don't live nearby, I love bringing out of town folks here for gifts...and myself when I need a touch of country. Bradford Market has the kindest staff, best grounds, and delightful events.It's my go-to spot for local goods to bring as hostess gifts when I travel. Plus, they've special-ordered Goat Lady Dairy truffles for me once or twice...so of course they have a fan for life!

Fantastic! My wife and I have been shopping at the Bradford Market for about ten years. Frank and Correne and their employees are absolutely wonderful. There are always smiles and pleasant conversations while you're there. In the spring (and all the way through to autumn) there are beautiful flowers all around the property. We go by sometimes just to take pictures and have a walk around, but always stop in the store to say hello and pick up some things. Check them out, you'll be glad you did (you can thank me later).

Awesome store! Everything is organic and of the best quality you can get. I always trust products from this store and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Hanging out in the patio area or rolling the gardens is always a treat

I have never left a review in my life, but The Bradford Store and it's crew really deserve all of the appreciation.The love and care that they put into everything that they do, and carry within the store, is so comforting and trustworthy. I wish more "grocery" stores were like this. They focus on relationship with the farmers and artisans whose products they stock and that is the way it should be. I am so grateful to have access to a location like this, even it is 45 minutes away from me! I still make the drive, because it's worth it.Thank you, Bradford, for all that you do!

Awesome selection. Awesome owners. Make this your first stop before going up the street. In fact figure out a way to make it your only stop!You’d be amazed how little food a family of 5 consumes! Ever since we started cooking with a goal of “no leftovers” we’ve been stunned how much we used to waste!Also, grow some of your own. The average last frost in our area is April 11th. So make a small area in your backyard with a small rectangle of stakes and chicken wire (keeps animals out and the HOA won’t know), and put some plants in the ground!!!You and your kids (if applicable) will love it!

I recently visited The Bradford Market and was very impressed with everything about this farm. They have organic produce and lots of other products such as honey, grass fed meat, natural teas, pure essential oils, and many other products. The staff are very knowledgeable and very professional and friendly. I am so glad I found this place and will become a regular customer for sure.

The most spectacular market around. This place is a gem of the whole area. Truly organic and planet friendly sourced items.

Just perfect! Two words that come to mind when you walk into this sweet market moments from the town of Davidson. I spent a few minutes talking to one of the young ladies running the market. This is a special place. Come see for yourself. It’s a must!!!!

The Bradford Market is such a wonderful, local store with a speciality in sourcing from small farmers and local craftsmen. Produce, meats, breads, vegetables, etc! Employees are all so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend! Not to mention the setting is breathtaking!

I just love this store! Whether I need some herbs, essential oils, local honey & elderberry or locally made goods, I know I can find it at this gem of a store! Support small business & shop local… it is SO important! Thank you for all of your hard work!

What a gem! A nice selection of organic, healthy, local items. Groceries, gifts, frozen meals, health care, supplements, a real nice variety of items. Plus it has the most adorable grounds to enjoy.

Sadly, this place has gone downhill since it changed owners. We went not long after the change and noticed the chickens were gone, my kids wanted to see if they were coming back or if it was a permanent change, and upon my asking the owner about them, she said no, and seemed anoyed that we asked about them.I bought some herb starts in the spring, and not long after I had them in my indoor pots, I discovered they were infested with aphids and fruit flies. Only one plant ended up surviving, and we had fruit flies for MONTHS after that. (I'd purchased starts from there many times before and never had any issues at all previously).I used to enjoy bringing my kids there to shop and enjoy the gardens, but recently, when we went, we were following around by two small dogs barking at us VERY loudly. I had trouble even hearing my kids talking to me, and nobody around had the thought to take them out or even try to get them to stop. I don't think I'll be going back unless there is something specific I really need that only they have, which is doubtful. It's just not the enjoyable experience it used to be.

Great organic store, beautiful surroundings! Christmas trees, essential oils, diffusers, food, fresh baked goods, pickles, jellies and jams. Don't miss it!

Love this place. What an oasis in the middle of traffic and bustle. Beautiful scenery, nice people -- love it. Where else do you have staff who asks about your 12-year-old's birthday?! Family-friendly and awesome!

I absolutely adore this store. I am so disappointed I didn't find it sooner. I go every week. The selection of organic and local produce and products is fantastic. The people are so friendly. I used to do instacart and dread going to a store. I look forward to my weekly grocery trip and if I have an excuse to go extra, I don't hesitate. Every community should have something like this. Thank you 💙

I believe my dinners are wonderful, and I must admit it may be due to the wonderful local produce from Bradford Market. Fingerling potatoes, heirloom tomatoes, organic carrots... made my roasted chicken dish this past weekend a hit. They also have bread cheese, hard to find, and my personal choice with fried eggs for breakfast. The people at Bradford Market are gems and will talk your leg off. A sit on the porch in the rocking chairs takes you down a few notches from the hectic lives we all live. Love this place.

Wow, wow, wow!! I wish I could give this amazing gem 10 stars. It has all of the staples you could possibly need. Everything is mindfully and consciously sourced, it has an amazing vibe and you’ll be met with a warm welcome. I could not be more impressed and will definitely do all of my regular shopping here!

Extremely knowledgeable and friendly people. Very fun visit and learning experience. My three and five year old found the sandbox entertaining while my wife was able to speak with the lady inside about the oils. All in all, great place to visit. Will definitely be back. Oh, and the cutest dog that apparently can smell french fries a mile away. 😁

I was welcomed here today with that old time southern charm. I mean the kind when someone meets you at the door. The ladies there were so helpful and pleasant. The organic choices are wonderful. I was looking for dill and one of the sweet ladies checked the garden to see if it was ready for picking. Love this place. Can't wait to go back!

This is one of my favorite places in the area! They sell things they grow there, which is amazing (we just ate some of the best arugula of our lives), and they have relationships with other local farms to carry their products. And there's other great local stuff like gifts and cards. They are always so nice and the place itself is absolutely stunning. We even bought a local pesticide-free Christmas 🌲!!

This place is fantastic. All of the Organic and local goods without the Trendy Tax. 3 separate buildings full of various goods. Produce, farm/garden supplies, health and wellness supplies and pet food. This really is a great little stop if you're looking for a local small business with a lot to offer. Everyone was very helpful and welcoming. Looking forward to returning here.

I love this place! They have seasonal, local produce along with local milk, honey, eggs, and more. It's also a great source of quality EO and natural products. The staff is pleasant, friendly, and helpful. My daughter loves playing with the toys while I shop and chasing chickens after we are done!

It's a cute little place. We got a Christmas tree from here and the Blacksmith showed us some of the stuff he made which was pretty cool. I like getting a tree from a place like this vs. a parking lot at a chain store. It's really scenic and we took a lot of nice family pics! Great place to be!

I was blown away! Three little buildings with interesting things, many locally produced. The main country store had everything from organic bug repellent to jam, loose herbal teas, popped sorghum, mushroom powder, fresh bread, fun pottery, soap, sourdough bread starters, meat and seafood, and their own fresh produce, grown on site. Fresh seafood Wednesday mornings, everyone! Sign up for their newsletter! I spent a bunch of money and will definitely be going back!
