Willey Farms

Updated 05/28/2023
I purchased a house in Townsend, Delaware February 9th, 2023. Me & my wife started shopping at this store around the following week and have been shopping there every week just about. Me and my wife love and adore this store, as the fresh produce and overall quality of the products are amazing. When we first started shopping at this store it appeared that some of the staff were unapproachable and a little uneasy, however after sometime it appeared, that’s not the case and it possibly was me expecting everyone to be people persons and that’s unfair to Wiley Farms and I should know better because I worked with people the last 27 years and everyone is not the same, I don’t know, but I know this, the last couple weeks have been AMAZING!!! in dealing with the staff, they are like family to me and my wife and after yesterday 05/28/2023 It was imperative that I give Wiley Farms (5) stars. If I could give this store (6) stars I would because the quality of the food, products and staff have been nothing short of incredible!!!! I believe and standby this store.I encourage any and everyone in the neighborhood and abroad to patronize this store as Me and my wife strongly believe this is the best neighborhood store in the area. Also check out the picture of the exotic cheese I tried from there it’s simply amazing with a glass of wine!!!! I also encourage you to try the chicken salad it is awesome!!The organic turkish figs are wonderful, I put them in a mason jar with olive oil and let them soak for a few days and eat them as a snack. In closing, there’s no reason to shop at any other store in the area if you can get the products from this store at a much higher quality, and you must remember “You truly are what you eat” !

Willey Farms has something for everyone! It’s a great place for the whole family. The natural market has beautiful produce, cheeses, seafood, baked goods and lots of groceries. I love the garden center and shops too.

The shopping experience in the Garden shop and Market was amazing! There is a vast selection to choose from. All the employees were great, they were knowledgeable, patient and friendly. The store was clean and well organized. The market has multitude of organic, vegan and gluten free products. This place is an absolute must visit on your next trip to Delaware.

This is a must stop at farm market. They have everything from local fresh produce, organic groceries, a deli, baked goods, flowers, a gardening department and a beautiful selection of home furnishings.

Easy to get in and out of, and conveniently located to the main road.

The market is very clean and the staff is super friendly and helpful.

The fresh food, produce, snacks, drinks are all delicious! The staff is kind and helpful and the other patrons are friendly also. I always make sure to stop here when I’m in town and you should too!

Great trip to Willeys today, took advantage of the 35% off sale on select trees and shrubs.
Always a great place to shop and visit

I went in today for succulents as a present for my daughter. Seriously they had around 10 different kinds plus assorted cactus. I love the variety and the great price. And the customer service is top notch!!!

Beautiful Christmas trees, wreaths, beautiful bows and more! So happy to be able to shop here and see the Willey family and their employees again. They are surely #willeystrong and a testament of perseverance in our community as they reopen. We look forward to seeing what else they offer over the next few months as they prepare to rebuild the main building after the big fire.

Very nice first experience visiting today. I walked put with a Blueberry Legacy, sweet potatoe vine, and a grape vine. Thanks for making me feel welcome.

Great place for buying produce and plants. Ice cream shop is nice too

It looks great, not as big as it was pre fire but I am sure that they will get there eventually. They have great produce, plants, and gourmet foods.

My first time going back since the fire. Still a big event to me. I love how nice everyone treats each other. Going to take my sisters next time. The produce store is fascinating.

Love Willy’s on a roll. Their roast beef with pickle and horseradish is great. I don’t think to go here nearly often enough.

Excellent, quaint grocery store. Winter is a tough time to stock fruit and veggies and while there is no possible price better than bigbox here, they maintain a stock. They do have a variety that strays from the beaten path in other areas and source a lot locally. Price reflects a boutique grocery pricing but that’s reasonable and to be expected. Really cute shop with a wide array of options. And prices aren’t bad, just not a shot they can maintain this small operation and compete with pricing of big box.

Behind the Plant Nursey, they also have a dedicated homegoods store, a children’s toys store, a sub/hoagie food truck, outdoor activities, gazebos, covered patios, and more.

They have really built up the campus and have a lot of goods available, often locally sourced when possible. Great concept!

Shop Local if ya can or just don’t feel like the chaos of driving into town.

Their produce at the market is phenomenal quality. The plants from the nursery are also great quality and have been holding up really well.

The flowers and shrubbery are amazing. This place is like the Disneyland of flowers and greenery. Exciting, beautiful and magical. But my customer service experience was pretty disappointing. I have difficulty walking and it's apparent. What I needed was at the very back of the greenhouse/garden area. I just needed a tomato cage...so you think the lady who told me where they were might have offered to get me one as a courtesy after watching me struggle to walk? Would have been nice, and it would have been kind. I would have given it only two stars but for the loviness of the flowers and other plants. So five stars for everything except the customer service; 1.5 stars for their customer service..UPDATE: Went into the produce/grocery building and I changed my rating from 3 stars to 5! Excellent customer service and the produce was wonderful. I called first before going to see if they had greens in stock with the Christmas holiday so close. Having none besides kale in the immediate store area, they asked me to hold a minute while someone went back to their storage area to see if there were any bundles collards in the back, which there were. They brought them up front and held them for me until I got there--that and the broccoli i had also inquired about. This was my first time going into the grocery building but it won't be my last! Wow is all I can say! So many quality items and such beautiful produce! I felt like a kid in a candy store. If you haven't shopped there, stop in and see for yourself.

They had reasonably priced fresh strawberries and fresh asparagus today! Their produce is awesome!

Willey's has always been a treasure to visit. I remember it just starting out as a very small stand on the side of the road. Great childhood memories of coming back from swimming or fishing at the beach all day and our family would stop and buy a large basket of juicy peaches from the elderly fellow. We couldn't wait to sink our teeth into them, it was a treat for us being a large family of 6 children. Our parents would allow us to eat as many as we wanted on the way home. Afterwards mom usually canned them.

The selection was great and the customer service made the whole first time experience awesome. This 'farm market' has it all. The grocery store was stocked with old favorites and the prices were terrific! We will be back!

I’ve shopped at Willey Farms almost 35 years. Always have a good experience & the staff is always happy, helpful & very friendly. Miss the old Willeys of course, but have gotten used to the Village being built. Sad the food truck closed. Willeys has, and always will, make the very best subs in the MOT area. Greenhouse is essential for me & I really love the new products they are carrying. I always try to support them instead of big corporate stores/websites. All you have to do is ask an employee a question and you would be amazed how helpful they are. Excellent produce too! Definitely a place to stop at least weekly!! Making my weekly stop tomorrow! K.
