They really know their stuff. Looking for a clean product with the best ingredients, then look no further. Sausages are amazing and the bone broth better than anywhere else. Will happily give you all the necessary info as well. Have a snack while visiting and definitely stock up for home.

I’m rating this place purely on their bone broths. I first visited a few months ago when I read about the health benefits of drinking bone broth in the morning. The woman in the store provided lots of information and advice and let me try a sample. I bought turkey, chicken, and lamb and drank them over the course of the next week. Of the three flavours, turkey was definitely my favourite, followed by the chicken. The lamb was strange and gamey tasting and I could taste it for hours after finishing. I ended up not finishing the bag. Each bag lasted about 2.5 days having half a mug (maybe about 6−8oz. once a day). I came in a few more times but each time they were out of the turkey, so after Christmas I made my own and was surprised to find that it had a much stronger and deeper flavour. Comparatively, the flavour of these bone broths is much weaker. I will still stop by if I don’t get a chance to make my own for the week, and I am so glad that Vancouver has a bone broth bar, but I do think the strength and depth of flavour could be improved.

I had to come on here and write a review because I love this place like crazy. The owners are usually there helping the customers themselves. I recently went there on a Sunday to see a sign on the door saying they were closed for the day, but left a phone number to call them if you came from far away and they’ll come open the store and help you. Who does that these days? So great. She has easy and fantastic meal suggestions depending on what you’re feeling like, and tells you how to make the most of what you buy (ie. make a chicken stock the next day) and chef Allen is there to greet you and help you personally as well, checking all your eggs before you buy them and telling you about his products, which he is very proud of. I am a huge fan of their bone broth! It has helped me get over a few ailments. You can get a cup to go and they’ll dress it up for you with an egg yolk or whatever you like. They have great international cheeses, amazing salami’s (truffle anyone?) good cooking oils, pastas, butter, dairy, and some tasty ready made meals. It’s so nice to have an organic place right around the corner, where I know the people that run it really care about everything from animal treatment to the quality of their products. Come check out and support this place!

Their bone broth will cure almost anything that ails you, even a bad mood. Reasonable pricing for what you’re getting. Awesome selection of organic meat and dairy, and great knowledgeable service. Chef Allan knows his stuff.
Tip: if you’re defrosting a frozen bag of broth, sit it upright in a Tupperware container in the fridge, don’t just put the package inside a plastic bag to defrost. Because they fill the packages totally full, there’s a chance the seam of the packaging will tear a bit and broth will leak out. Would much rather it leak into a Tupperware container than a shopping bag!

The only local place I’ve managed to find Blue Ice Royal — Butter Oil /Fermented Cod Liver Oil. Their price for Great Lakes Collagen Hydrolysate is also better than Amazon!

Home on the Range Organics is not just a store, it’s an experience! Just when I thought the all the passion in grocery shopping was lost I stumbled across this gem in Mount Pleasant.
Chef Allen is extremely helpful and passionate about the products he sells, and for a good reason! He explained that the majority of the products are sourced from BC — a 100 mile radius. They carry all sorts of high quality meats such as organic bacon, «milk-fed» ham, chicken, beef and lamb.
Noteworthy are the DELICIOUS gourmet sausages which are made to Chef Allen’s own special recipes using high quality meat and no cheap fillers. I’ve tried most of the flavours and they are all distinctly flavorsome and meaty, very different to the cheap ones you get in the supermarket!
On the subject of dairy, the cheeses I bought were delicious, and the creamy taste of the ancestral butter is phenomenal.

As a vegetarian, married to a celiac, I was unsure of what to think of these sausages when I first bought them for my husband. I loved that their ingredients were pure but how would they taste? After his first bite my husband was sold, he LOVED them and they didn’t cause any kind of reaction after eating them. I thought I would see what the rave was about and tried a bite, even as someone who almost never eats meat I thought they were DELICIOUS. Absolutely worth stocking up on (I just bought 12 packs yesterday because they freeze so well!), and so easy to cook up one night after work. Healthy, pure, tasty. It is a win win all around. Anybody who has been buying their meat from anywhere else, definitely recommend you give this place a try.

Cheese, cured meats, soups, meat, SAUSAGES! and many other delectable items fill this quaint shop. Everything that I have ever taken home from this wonderful shop has been delicious. However, I must shed some light on the sausages. These sausages are incredible, one could say even life changing, they are the best in town and when you’ve tried one you can never go back. My boyfriend and I are simply addicted to them and are saddened when we no longer have any more in the freezer. Luckily! that means we get to go back to the shop, have a nice conversation with the owner (who is incredibly passionate about what he does) and fill our sausage card with more stamps!

I stumbled by this place by accident while trying to find the existing store that used to be there. I was sad that the previous business had closed, however, glad that I found this one in replacement of. They specialize in organics, just like the name implies. Their primary focus is local within a certain radius. Most of the things in the store are what we see at Farmer’s market without having to wait for the farmer’s market. Prices are very reasonable and the lady who owns the store was very helpful.

I saw this new meat /dairy shop that opened up in Mount Pleasant, and was very excited to try it as supporting local businesses is always a good idea. We have gotten a few types of sausages, as well as some cheese curds, and an extra old gouda. I am excited to continue trying different sausages, and perhaps one of the whole chickens they sell while getting to stay in my own neighbourhood. Stop by and talk to the owners as they’re often there, and are happy to suggest some products depending on what you usually like.
