""Buying food at the farmer's market Stand in a line, people…read moreeverywhere" (Neil Young) We had a very enjoyable visit to the Southington Farmer's Market yesterday. We found it right on the Village Green where the annual Apple Festival starts. Parking was a non-factor, there were spots all over the immediate area and we snagged a prime spot on the corner of Main and Center Streets. Today was the first day they were open for the season, and the market was full of vendors, and everything seemed to be running like a well-oiled machine. We arrived shortly after the 3:00 opening and everything was already fully stocked and set up. The market was perfectly sized. Not too small, not overpoweringly huge, just about perfect. A leisurely stroll through the booths and stands will take around 30-40 minutes, I loved how the booths were adequately spaced apart so there were no logjams or crowds. The only real crowd we encountered was at Wave Hill Breads with a ten-person deep line of drooling customers. We finished our visit with some Wave Hill purchases. Some of the main categories of vendors included fruits, vegetables, pastries, breads, sauces, salsas, jerkies, guacamole, pizzas for one, soaps, flowers, crafts, straw baskets, honeys and syrups. All of those were enjoyed among a backdrop of live music. We picked up a container of great guacamole from Pop's Famous Guacamole, a wonderful jar of salsa from Angela's Kitchen, two adorable "Eight Ball" squashes from one of the produce vendors, and a bag full of goodness from Wave Hill Breads. Our Wave Hill Haul included a delicious eight-inch cheese pizza, a hunk of Three Cheese Monkey bread, and a beautiful Vanilla Citrus Scone. The vendors were all super friendly and chatty, and the whole afternoon had a very nice community/neighbor-like vibe. We loved every aspect of our visit to the Southington Farmer's Market. PRO TIP The Farmer's Market is scheduled for Fridays from 3-6PM at the Southington Town Green, beginning on Friday, June 20th, and ending on September 26th.

I was able to check it out a bunch of times and it was a nice selection of fruits, veggies, and homemade goodies, including yummy pickles in a barrel and fresh cheeses. I was able to find some unique veggies as well, purple beans and Mexican Gherkins which look like baby watermelons and taste like tiny sour cucumbers, these are my all time favorite, but go early because they will sell out!

The strawberries are fresh, sweet, vibrant, and cut into bite size pieces. The chocolate is quality. There's a perfect distribution of crunchy kataifi, pistachio, and chocolate, and I love the chocolate covered strawberry she adds on top. She makes them fresh to order. It's presentable with cute details like a pretty golden fork and the pineapple pick on top. The owner is kind. I would come here for any future fruit baskets knowing how fresh her fruit are now. Located inside Spoonshoppe Brooke Deli, so I like to come in for both my seafood/sandwich + fruit fix at the same time. Plenty of indoor seating too.

We came Easter week and there was a line outside, and even a bigger line inside but well worth the wait. What I like, is they only had one kind of kielbasa (Easter Kielbasa) nothing confusing. They also sell pierogies, pickles, red cabbage, mustard, horseradish, babka etc. We brought Easter Kielbasa, and three small babka's. Pineapple cheese, cherry cheese, and apple. Since I could not wait to try their kielbasa I also order a plain Kielbasa sandwich. You can add sauerkraut, and Polish mustard, if you like. The sandwich was packed with meat and only $8.00. I have been to several Polish specialty stores, and tried all kinds of kielbasa. This by far was the best I ever had.
