I understand that this is a family business, and they can run their business the way they want, but they're not interested in providing a warm and welcoming environment. I have been going in to this farmstand off and on for 8 years. Have always come away feeling some kind of way because of the juju. Last visit was, in fact, my last visit. Much prefer Groundworks Organics, or Santa Clara farmstands. Thistledown is just a little too cold and dismissive for me. Not my jam.

ME & Moore Farm's pumpkin patch is now open (since yesterday, normally they do not open on Sundays…read morebut did for this special day). My husband and I decided to make a stop by this smally family owned farm, hoping to see pumpkins and purchase some vegetables and fruits. Unfortunately this farm is not dog friendly so our little girl stayed in the car (please note that the temperature was cold and had lightly rained earlier so she was not overheated while she waited a short time for us). We walked inside the open air store and ended up purchasing 2 Empire apples and one zucchini. We haven't had the chance to cook the zucchini yet (will do so tomorrow once we arrive at our AirBnB that has a kitchen) but we ate the apples and they were nice and crisp. The skin of the apple was thick but was good. Loved the color of this apple and the creaminess of the inside. Service was generally friendly and quick (but we were not acknowledged when we first came in, as the 2 employees were having a conversation between themselves, with the backs turned). The unisex restroom that I used was clean and adequately stocked with the essentials. Overall, had a nice experience and would consider coming back if I lived in the area.

We've been buying products from Matthew for years now, but he only just officially incorporated his business. He's a fully licensed hunter and mushroom gatherer/seller who spends most of his free time going out into the woods in the Eugene/Cascades area to gather and hunt his own wild foods. We reap the benefits of his hard work, at prices that are very comparable to what you would find at the store/market. (Did you know most of the mushrooms at the Farmer's Market are actually farmed, not gathered?) He does everything he can to keep his prices as low as possible. We bought some chanterelles today at $10.50 a pound, and he delivered them to our door. For comparison, I noticed they were $16 today at Market of Choice, and those are farmed, not harvested fresh from the woods around Eugene. he's coming back tomorrow with porcini! We've bought a wide variety of stuff from Matthew, but we especially love the chanterelles. If he has time, he delivers them to our door too, often on the same day he found them. Unless you're gathering chanterelles in your won backyard, it doesn't get more fresh or local than that. His selections are obviously limited to the season, and to what he was able to find/hunt, but he posts what he found on their Facebook page, so you can easily see what's freshly available. That's the easiest way to get in touch with him too (at least for us, since we don't like to call people on the phone) And Matthew's extremely meticulous about cleaning his products too, so you'll get perfect mushrooms ready to go straight into your pan!

But they've got some fancy new digs with this permanent structure. It's not much more than walls and a roof, but that's useful for this type of market since the stalls might vary in size depending upon the vendor. There are vendors both in and outside the structure, selling baked goods (bagels, cookies, hot dogs, etc.), meats, flowers, fruits and veggies, you name it. And it's nice to be out of the rain for at least part of the time, which is oh so common in Eugene. They have a bathroom (an all-user bathroom, great!) but I'm not sure if it's just far too small or what. We didn't need it, thankfully, because there was a line out the door of the bathroom. This seems to be the biggest flaw with the building--not sure they really planned well in this case.

ATTENTION MUSHROOM PICKERS. think twice before selling your mushrooms here. today is 9-7-2018. The…read morelate summer and fall season is upon us. buying practices are important to pickers and this company has practices that are intentionally ripping off the pickers. I've sold to numerous buyers in Oregon and California over the past ten years and mushrooms are graded by the buyers and pay is determined by the quality of the mushroom. the majority of mushrooms have basically two grades good or bad. good is top price and bad is bought at a fraction of the price and usually are referred to as dryers. also referred to as wormy which means they have worms within the mushroom body. matsitakes and boletes have several grades of condition and chanterelles in the middle and late season sometimes have 3 grades including good, field run and dryers. lobsters and most other mushrooms have two grades. good and bad or dryers. this company seems to believe that its appropriate to change the rules and cut your profits. todays price for chanterelles' is 9.00 and lobsters are 5.00 a pound. this is a great price for this time of year. never have I seen in over ten years a buyer paying for different grades except good and bad or good or dryers this time of year or ever. this company basically took my seven pounds of chanterelles paid me nine a pound for 3.5 pounds and paid me 3.00 dollars for grade 2 which I have no idea what that is. what I assume is the price for flowers or bigger mushrooms. this isn't normal and it took over 20 dollars from my pocket. I had 11 pounds of lobsters. they divided the pondage in half and 5.5 ponds I received 5.00 a pound. for the other 5.5 they paid me 2.00 dollars a pound and claimed that they removed the worms which will still net them the same profit when sold to consumers. now lobsters are often wormy and a buyer will slice small chunks of its body to determine if it has worms. the buyer I buying tonight sliced from 10 to 30 slices from my mushrooms as if he was just looking for a worm and they claim they are removing worms. this is a scam and pickers should think twice before buying from this company. I lost another 20 dollars from this scam and its basically theft. I confronted the owner and buyer and my claims that this practice was wrong and nothing I've ever seen before was not supported by any reason or circumstance and was told I don't have to sell there if I don't want to. I wont and anyone who picks mushrooms should sell elsewhere. ATTENTION CONSUMERS AND RESTRAUNTS, ETC. you should really think twice if your buying from this company. how much do you spend for a pound of fresh market chanterelle. your spending too much for a product that would not be available if it wasn't for the pickers. fair practices should be across the board and pickers are always getting the low end treatment when its compared to profits. I get it and businesses need to make money. But the practices of this company are ripping the picker off and possibly you as well. Owen Rice you should be ashamed of yourself and know that your practices are not the norm, not fair and you should apologize and change your ridiculous buying practices because you know what your doing and your greed is disgusting. Ryland Sweet is my name.

I went over to the corn area and grabbed a few of the produce bags that are more substantial and was filling them up as I walked around. It was a busy day so I couldn't get in to all the produce until the other customers were done. I tucked a couple of the bags in the front pocket of my purse so that I could reach them easily as I walked around. One of the employees, she was mid 40's with dark curly hair came over to me and demanded that I give her the bags that I had. She said that they cost money and I couldn't take them. I explained that I was not taking them but that I wasn't done shopping. She said "give them to me, and we will bag up whatever needs bagged" She didn't say it quietly, but she was very loud and Karenish. I'm 64 years old and have Never been accused of stealing anything.....let alone cheap bags. I should have walked out but I went and payed $135.00 for what I had already had in my cart. I will never go back, and I have been telling all my friends what happened and I hope they pass it along. That is not how you treat paying customers. Had she waited for me to checkout and if I had any bags remaining in my purse, then maybe she would've been in the right to ask for them back. But not while I was still shopping. That's how people get hurt these days.
