I'm a big fan of Good Shepherds Ube jam, it's so good. There are lot's of goodies to buy. Another discovery is their Salabat with Lemon grass. It is very soothing and good alternative drink.

Authentic ube jam! I never miss any opportunity to visit this place...purely to buy loads of ube jam for family and friends.

There were so many people and line was long but service was fast. I love their UBE and Strawberry jams. I also bought cookies which was also very good.

Lots to buy here and if you are on a health kick lots of natural remedies on sale. Taste before you buy is on offer!

friendly people, clean restrooms and good food, traffic in some areas but preferably try to walk as much as you can for healthy reason.

Been visiting Good Shepherd on and off since my childhood. Hats off to them for constantly improving their system of selling food. Each purchase helps their worthy cause of sending Cordilleran youth to college. In my Dec 26, 2014, I accompanied a first-time visitor to Baguio. It only took us minutes to buy strawberry and ube jams and other goodies despite the huge crowds. Her queueing for the restroom took longer. When I saw my friend again weeks later, she said she hadn't really planned on eating the ube herself. But she checked it out and liked it so much that she ate the whole jarful of ube all by herself. :D She wishes she had bought more.

didn't stay long. Just went there to buy jams. walking distance from mines view. I recommend that the comfort rooms should be free to the customers. Maybe, put up some coffee shop or tea house :)

No trip to Bagui City will ever be complete without a trek to this Convent to buy their goodies! The jams that they produce are the best tasting, especially their Ube and Strawberry jams. The nuns of the convent personally supervise the preparation and cooking of their goods, and with each purchase that you make, you help send their wards to school. Aside from their delicious jams, do get their guyabano tea. It helps maintain lower cholesterol and helps control/improve diabetes. I personally recommend that you buy your pasalubongs in this place. It's worth the trip and the long lines. :)

The only purpose for going to this convent is to buy their goods. This place is know for their jams (strawberry and ube/purple yam) and cookies. They have a very good system for purchasing so that it is fast and not chaotic. The traffic going there can be bad but the goodies are really worth it and the money you spend will go to a good cause.

This outlet is really good to buy native jams, preserves and such … people are really nice and accommodating … do not forget to get a cup of coffee … find it out for yourself what it is from … be adventurous ...

I've been to this place twice or thrice already and there's always a line! Which is good, I think. I try to go here when I'm in Baguio as there's always someone from home who'd ask for Ube Jam as pasalubong. I don't eat ube so I can't rate it-- though most people really loved their ube jam so I guess it was good. The place is out of the way so make sure when you go here you'll have a ride back. I had a not-so-fun experience of walking for like 20-30mins before we were able to ride a cab/ to actually see a motor vehicle! The walk was OK I guess, it was cold so I was good-- I just don't like the idea of getting lost :DAnyway, a great place to get pasalubong!

The favorite place to buy Ube, Strawberry jams, and Orange marmalade. Just walking distance from Mines View Park.

Long lines were a bit of a hassle. Goods though of good quality were a bit priced too high. Some of the varieties of their SKUs were out of stock when I visited. Coffee inside the place was good and so as with the empanada.

They open the gates at 8am, so you have to be there early because the lines can be rather long. I only got their ube jam (you may only buy maximum of 4bottles per transaction) and it was still warm when I held it. Tastes creamy and not to sweet too! Plus, you get to help people finish college whenever you buy their products. Talk about hitting two birds with one stone :)

Always a time honored tradition to visit this place when visiting Baguio. This is just beside Mines View Park . Must try items include Ube/purple yam , strawberry jam , chocolate crinkles and peanut variants. And I would suggest trying their civet coffee and chicken pies. There is a stations of the cross area for the religious inclined .
