On the last Sunday of the month, the Uptown district hosts a farmers market that carries in-season…read morefruits, veggies, and herbs from 10+ vendors. Starting in May and going through to October, OKC blocks off Walker just North of NW 23rd for 5 hours to promote healthy living and sustainability, a friendly place to walk, and provide a family-friendly atmosphere. You can also find local edible crafts such as pickles, salsa, and protein bars and snacks. There were a couple of bands playing music that went perfectly with the atmosphere. I loved that it was right next to The Pump and Urban Core so I didn't have to drive back and forth across town for my other Sunday errands. I wish there had been a few more vendors with a few more options, but I'm sure it will grow to be just as popular as H & 8th has become. As for parking, there seems to be enough as long as you don't mind walking a block. I parked on 23rd and there were two grass lots that people filled up pretty quickly.

At first, I was like "this is bs i cant find any damn parking and all i want is some tea". What was…read moregoing on?! Why was the Urban Teahouse (and other businesses, I GUESS) lot packed to the max? I was very irked by this. But a parking spot was found and tea was had. Then I learned that the reason for the audacious parking was the farmer's market. I knew the Uptown Farmer's Market existed in some form or another. It just didn't click in my head at first. So yeah. I visited my former brief enemy because I'm such a white girl when it comes to farmer's markets. It's small. Duh. It's a short stretch of street, but I think the small space packs a punch. What did I buy in such a little area, you ask? -Doughnuts from Holey Rollers (Note: I'm not vegan. These are vegan doughnuts. These are some of the best damn doughnuts. So if "vegan" throws you off and makes you suspicious, let it go. Get a doughnut.) -Pickling cucumbers -Honey and salsa -A candle -Wine -Fresh chicken breast -Freshly made bread and pretzels There were a number of other things, obviously. A good amount of choices when it came to meat. Three different vendors were peddling their animal bits, along with other assorted products, such as the honey and salsa and fruits/vegetables. On sight, I found: cucumbers, fresh basil, watermelon, peaches, squash, onions. There was likely more produce that I just didn't notice. As far as vendors go, there was also a stand for olive oil and I think another one for some locally made items, but I'm not sure what. We came into the market at the tail end of the time, so by time we made it to that area, they were closing up shop. Maybe next time! Holey Rollers, The Loaded Bowl, and an Italian ice cart made the scene, as well. So that's a nice little touch to have some treats around!

So we got tipped off that the cheese here is to die for. It took a while to learn which cheese…read moreexactly and how one must acquire this cheese. But once we figured it out, my world in all its cheesy goodness will never be the same. So which cheeses...queso crema y queso fresco. These are the house made cheeses we're talking about here, not some prepackaged brand name which is sitting in the cases easy to grab. No, these cheeses are not accessible to customers without asking a staff member, interestingly enough. One must go all the way to the back of the store to the meat counter and ask the butcher for the house made queso fresco or queso crema. It's a plus if you speak Spanish, or befriend a fellow customer who may be able to help you. The queso crema tastes homemade. It has that fresh cheese smell. It's great with chips, on enchiladas, tacos, nachos, on a spoon (not kidding), it's great on everything. The queso fresco has a wet salty bite, but not too salty and its the perfect accompaniment to whatever Mexican inspired meal your cooking up in the kitchen. From now on, I'll be measuring all future queso to the standard set here. The bar is high. Come to this store for the queso. They also have a nice small store selection of other common items. The butcher shop is great too. Commonly we'll hit up the meat and cheese here and grab a few veggies, as needed for dinner that night. It's an easy place to run in and grab a few things. It's more of a meat shop meets bodega kinda place. Do your regular weekly shopping elsewhere. Shop here for just handful of specialty items. I'd recommend shopping here in the daylight hours.

If you enjoy cooking or experimenting with new ingredients, this market is definitely worth exploring. Just make sure you give yourself plenty of time to look around.

I got what I needed and got out. Be careful in the parking g lot as it is tight and hard to see.

The selection is average and they're often out of basic things like skim milk or sour cream or certain brands of dog food. The biggest frustration is checkout.

If you aren't going to open the lanes any longer (and those lanes are never open), convert the area to a larger self checkout space so customers aren't crammed into 100 square feet with zero room to put groceries.
