Just updating my review to say I still love this farmers market. When I was living in Southside, we…read moreused to come here a lot. Now I come occasionally to check it out with my friends still in Southside. My favorite vendors that come here are Maharajah Coffee and First Stop Donuts. I love the people running them! I enjoy that it's right in the park so there are quite a few benches to sit on. There are also fun paths to explore with a warm drink and yummy snacks. I highly recommend ordering goodies from the vendors then having a picnic in Forest Hill Park. On my recent visit, I bought some rainbow carrots, acorn squash, spaghetti squash, fennel, and Europa fresh bread. As it gets colder there can be fewer vendors, but they carry everything you could hope and dream of. I loved checking out a vendor that sold holiday candles. There is tons of parking here and it's easy to bike or bus to. I'd recommend checking this market out.

Great experience here as well. The ambiance of the park was so cute. Make sure you get there early…read morebecause they WILL sell out. Great food options.

What a great farmer's market and in a beautiful setting…read more My husband were staying at the Williamsburg Inn for the weekend and I saw that there was a farmer's market nearby. I'm addicted to local tomatoes so wanted to go check it out. Wow! What a surprise. There were so many vendors and we ended up spending a good amount of time enjoying the area. If I had a way to keep items cold I would have spent a fortune. The good news is I found my tomatoes and they were excellent. I made a tomato sandwich with some and a tomato with olive oil, salt and pepper and had it with a crusty sourdough bread for breakfast. Williamsburg for the farmer's market win!

Good Farmer's Market (not the best in Hampton Roads though), however it is led and ran by…read moreunprofessional, pathetic individuals. My rating is as a result of encountering some of the leadership and organizers. This organization does NOT want to hear feedback or suggestions from those that support their vendors. As long as you make a purchase and shut up you are welcomed, otherwise you are blocked from their pages. Very petty and pathetic way to run/ruin a business! My only feedback was complimentary and then regarding hours of operation and cancelations with little to no notice to the customer. I was then blocked and shut out for commenting this feedback. Is that the way you treat and censor your customers? Mollie? That is not leadership! The only reason this Farmer's Market is mildly successful is because of your vendors. Hopefully they are being well treated and their concerns heard. Good riddance!

This is about as good as it's going to get for a small-town farmer's market…read more I love that my hometown is doing this. I love that it's still in that somewhat awkward beginning stage of "how does this work?" (or maybe, that's just me...). I love that the vendors are quick to point you to another vendor if they're out of something or aren't carrying something that day. Easy to find, super cheap prices. The big drawback is that you can't get eggs or any meat products... yet. Excited to see how this market grows in the future!

PG Farmers' Market has been one of my Saturday destinations for years. Although it is a small…read morefarmers' market it has a lot to offer and at prices that are way lower than any other in the area. They have a wide range of local produce, eggs, honey, coffee (roasted locally, not grown), and lots of assorted craft items. I typically go for the eggs and produce. On this occasion, I bought some coffee from a vendor which was amazing and only $7 as compared to some local coffed I bought in RVA for $12. I also bought some veggies, eggs from one of the few vendors that sell them, and hoop cheese. This is a great little farmer's market. The only down side is that there are some weekends that vendors are scant. My favorite thing to get is eggs and there are times when there are no vendors with eggs. Even still, I never leave empty handed and never spend more than $20.

A Fife and Drum band played and marched through numerous times and they had a great husband and wife duet singing and playing electric keyboard which added a nice festival feel to the beautiful sunny day with breezes blowing off the river. There are a few shops in the market area including a gift shop, bookstore with great used books, many on local history, some outdoor outfitters and a Ben and Jerry's. I recommend going early. The market starts at 8. We arrived around 930 and it was already very very crowded but luckily we found a parking spot in their small parking garage.

The selection here is immense with a large variety of jarred goods, drinks, dairy products and even meats. I ended up buying a jar of pickled watermelon rinds and sweet potato butter. Both were delicious selections that I haven't really seen anywhere else. The cashier was really nice and bagged my items for me. They only accept Cash or Checks, not CC. This prevented me from grabbing more, so I'd definitely recommend coming prepared with cash so you can get everything you'd like. The prices are fair and cheaper than what you'd find in the grocery store, so it's a decent trade-off for the cash-only model!

I know that the next time, I'll bring a cooler so I can stock up on their oxtails and pick up some steaks!
