Disclaimer, I'm not a regular shopper at Fresh Thyme Market - not because the store is bad per se,…read morebut because it's pricey. Fresh Thyme is an organic food supermarket chain, so I'll stop in occasionally to see what's new and/or to treat myself to some "fancy" groceries. Because of the cost of their items though, I'll shop here for supplemental goodies after getting my main haul elsewhere. (For me, Aldi and Trader Joe's are stops #1 and #2. Places like this, Giant Eagle, and The Fresh Market are where I go "just because" or when I want to splurge on groceries.) When I do stop in I always explore the baked goods and frozen foods - usually there are items and brands in these sections that aren't at other stores. (A lot of items are gluten free, too, which I know makes a difference to a lot of people.) I generally skip the produce and deli sections; the selections in both are decent but I can find these things elsewhere for less. And here's something I've never had to say about a grocery store before: I ALWAYS walk right past their supplements section, which is (in my opinion) unnecessarily large. I could talk at length about my problems with how supplements are (not) managed in America, so before I bog down my own review we'll move right along! Final thoughts: their selection is fine, and in theory it's great that they sell a variety of "healthy" things. In practice though, the food products are overpriced, and there are enough vitamins and supplements on sale that I almost question whether or not this should be classified as a grocery store. While I'll pop in and out of here occasionally, I'll never be a regular shopper.

This is a place where you need to be careful when you are buying produce. I was a bit disappointed…read morein the fact that they did not have a whole lot to choose from but they did have some unique melons which I had never heard of before. The current "in season" items right now are corn on the cob, tomatoes, peaches, and melons. There is a dairy case but nothing exciting about it along with a meat case. I wasn't impressed with the meats in it nor with the frozen cherries I saw. For the most part you can spend under $10.00 depending on what you get. I was blown away by the huge cantaloupes they had for sale. They were $4.50 each. Unfortunately when I got my selected melon home and began to cut it the juice ran all over the place and I could tell it was overripe. They do have items noted directly from farms. I ended up with a green pepper for $.25. Other peppers were a bit more. For corn on the cob you can get either white or yellow corn. I choose half a dozen white. They come prebagged and the one I selected had an extra ear of corn for free. I cooked one of those up when I got home and it was fresh and good. I was taken aback however when I saw they were selling overriped bananas that had started to turn brown. Normally I would find this type of thing in your regular supermarket but never in a place like this. They sell other things like popcorn and honey and jams to name a few. I was told that their greenhouse is currently undergoing transformation for fall so I really didn't get an opportunity to visit it. I asked about their other location in Cecil and learned that it was basically a nursery as opposed to a farmer's market. It is run by someone else in their family. The staff is friendly and helpful in explaining things to me. Credit cards are accepted on any order over $10.00. It is located on Bower Hill Road as you head towards Bridgeville.

Simmons Farmers Market is the off-site store for Simmons Farm…read more It sells produce such as corn, broccoli, peppers, cauliflower, onions, green beans, cucumbers, potatoes, squash, tomatoes, grapes, apples, and pumpkins. It also sells desserts such as pies, plants such as flowers, and other businesses' products such as canned goods. I bought two bags of fresh produce and a jar of honey. The total price was $39, which my husband thought was more expensive than regular grocery stores' prices. The employees did not greet me as I walked around the store, but I think that English is not their first language. The cashier did thank me and tell me to have a good day. Overall, I do not envision myself shopping here regularly, but I enjoyed browsing the products, and so far, these foods at home are tasting good.

The black haired women at the counter when we visited was not friendly at all. I would definitely shop here again because of their selection but I will be sure to go with an empty blatter lol, nor will I expect a smile for giving them my business. This place definitely has the potential to be a 5 star business. Do Better !!! It's nice to feel appreciated.

Going to Trader Joe's is usually the same experience, no matter which location you visit…read more The attendees are always hyper nice, the food is unique and reasonably priced, and you walk away feeling like it was a good experience. You can try something from their sample station such as a small drink or a bite of a new product they're featuring. For the kids, there's a hidden animal to find and then lollipops and stickers as their treats. You really can't go wrong here

I love this Trader Joe's and wish that I lived closer. Whenever I visit, I never have a problem…read morefinding a parking spot and getting in and out of the parking lot. The staff at the registers are always pleasant and working efficiently. The selection is fresh and vast. The flowers are always beautiful and welcoming as soon as you walk in and the cheese selection is borderline overwhelming. I never have a problem leaving with a full basket of unique finds. The store feels small when it's crowded and sometimes it's difficult to navigate around the crowd, but the aisles are wide.

we had such a great time at simmons farm! it's the perfect spot for a fall day with little ones,…read morethere's so much to do between the hayride, slides, flowe picking, apple picking, corn maze, pumpkin picking, and even the corn bus (my toddler's favorite!). the whole place feels warm and family-oriented, and the apple cider slushies + fried oreos were so good. lots of food vendors to choose from, we love the roaming bean! the only thing i'd note is that the prices felt a bit high, especially since the hayride ticket doesn't include a pumpkin, with a pumpkin is +5. just something to keep in mind if you're going with a group or family. still, totally worth the trip for the experience and the memories.

Simmons Market is a store that is located on the grounds of Simmons Farm. It sells produce such as…read morecorn, potatoes, peppers, onions, cauliflower, apples, and grapes. Of course, these foods vary based on the season of year. This store also sells some packaged foods such as desserts and honeys. I entered the store and walked around a little, but I did not buy anything, because I planned to visit their other store that is located a few miles away. The products, though, did look temptingly delicious. I greatly appreciated that an employee approached me and asked me if I needed assistance. I asked her where the petting zoo was located, and she kindly gave me clear directions.

Call it Pig Heaven- this is my local farm fresh creator of the Notorious P.I.G- a any time of day burger that is best ordered farmer style (with Millers Mustard and Organic Kraut) I like to add a farm fresh egg to make it even better. OK if your a vegan you can skip the meat and order a grilled polenta topped with Cowboy Candy (the Cowboy Candy is an organic homemade pepper relish that has some sweet and some extra heat and like candy is addictive). For Glutten-Free diners order Annie's Open Faced PIG on Polenta. Kids love our beef dogs with ketchup and polka fans love the Keibasa and Kraut with spicy homemade mustard.

They sell frozen meats, eggs and farm soap - best to order online for market pick-up @BlackberryMeadowsFarm.com. Free water and lots of good food - this is the best farm to hand stand in Mt Lebanon on Saturday. Also find the farm growing and cooking in Squirrel Hill on Sunday, East Liberty on Monday, Natrona Heights on Wednesday and Northside on Friday. My family waits for the farmers grill to open and this was a long winter. Enjoy and spread the word to help support small local family farming! Not to be missed and bring friends and family for a fun local agriculture adventure. Yum! this is a good as it gets because you know where the food comes from, it is all humanely produced and it is just so darn good.

After seeing posts online about this Farmers Market for quite some time, I finally made it out to…read morecheck it out this past summer! I stopped here around 1:30 PM on a Sunday in July for the second market of the season. The Carnegie Farmers Market is held right on E Main Street, and spans about a block or so. There is a parking lot on one side of the street, or there is plenty of street parking all around. Carnegie is relatively flat, so it is an easy walk to the market wherever you end up parking. Hours of the market are Sundays from Noon to 3:00 PM in July and August, and 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM in September. When we visited, there was a good amount of patrons around, but it was not overwhelmingly crowded. Many patrons had their dogs, so they are definitely welcome to the fun. There are a healthy amount of vendors, as well as businesses that line the street which are also open during the event. On the day we visited, there were nearly 40 vendors, in addition to the businesses in the area. Vendors range from farms, food stands, hand-made gifts and goods, alcoholic drinks, local organizations, and much more. The beauty of a market like this is that they will change weekly! Some of my personal favorites from this particular market day were Cox Woodwork out of Aliquippa, and the Mexa food stand. I also enjoyed the live music playing. They bring in a different musician/musical group weekly, so that is also something to look forward to seeing differently each visit. All of the different vendors will have different pricing, but I did not think anything was extremely expensive or unreasonable. There are select vendors that accept Fresh Access and SNAP, which allows dollars to stretch even further than they normally would! We ended up spending over an hour in the area, between the vendors on E Main Street and the surrounding businesses that were open. Markets like these create such a fun atmosphere and promote community. It was fun to walk around, browse, and see all that the market and Carnegie had to offer. I look forward to being able to stop here again this upcoming summer! This is a great market that seems to be growing in both size and popularity each year. Be sure to check the updates that are posted on Facebook by "Carnegie Markets," as that is usually how I find out the latest information on this one!

This is a very cute and fun farmers market to walk around.

If you are not looking for something to eat, but are rather in search of a cute gift there are also vendors that sell a selection of fresh, beautiful bouquet of flowers or small potted plants to choose from. There is a parking lot right where the farmers market locates, or you can park on the street as well. Most places will take credit card/venmo but I recommend having some cash, just in case.
