Carrots at the Farmers Market
Stephanie M.

It has been a goal of mine to strictly purchase my produce from the Farmers Market. The produce is fresher, tastier and the money goes directly back into the community and helps support local growers. However, with its downtown location, it's not very convenient for me to get up on Saturday mornings and make the trek across town from my West Eugene home. I think I finally cracked the code to get my lazy booty to the market. I attend a yoga class at 8AM on Saturdays and then go immediately to the market. I've been doing this Saturday morning routine for the past 4 weeks and it has been a game changer. It's better for my mental health, better for gut health, and I feel like an active member of the community being up and about on Saturday morning instead of remaining in full couch potato stasis. I'm excited for their move into their new location on 8th street come June. It's a covered area so it will make shopping at the market more convenient all year round.

Much to my surprise this was a much larger market than I anticipated. It runs Saturdays from 10-5 April through mid November rain or shine! And it sits in the city downtown park area on 8th and Oak. The vendors were mostly veggies (greens, peppers, potatoes, fennel, kale etc), some fruits, eggs, meats, nice flowers, baked bread and cookies...but my favorite were the artisan goods and the food offerings. I found a wonderful falafel vendor and I got an order to go...all I can say Is shame on me for not tasting it...I would have ordered more! It was so light and delicious!! And I ate it cold so great job!!!! Definitely worth going back for!!! I wish I would have bought another 4 orders!!! And the jewelry vendors were true artists! I found a beautiful necklace made of sterling which is stunning! I am so glad I found this little market and I will certainly go back!!

Fabulous veggies, flowers, baked goods! Try to make it a point to go every week AND the PIZZA truck is the BEST!

Many thanks to my Yelp friend Dawn C. who turned me on to River Bend . Would not have found this…read moreutterly delightful place without her review as guide. Made my first visit in last week and picked up half a flat of fresh picked strawberries, a pint of homemade sour cherry jam (they had several kinds available) heads of organic fresh leaf lettuce and a few big (BIG) handfuls of crispy pea pods. All of the things we purchased were wonderful. Berries, pea pods and lettuce were gone in short order. The jam is a great add in to morning yogurt. We'll be back for more of other things on our next trip to Eugene. The super friendly family staff that runs the farm and the farm store deserve special mention. They really do make you feel glad you came in. (The friendly back and forth they had with local regular customers while we were in the store demonstrates the value of good service to building customer loyalty.) When I called ahead for directions, since my GPS didn't find them, I asked if they had berries available. The woman I spoke with asked if I'd want to pick my own. No, I said, MS challenges have put my "pickin' days" behind me. She said she and her daughter would go pick some for me and if I'd give them 30 minutes before coming in, they'd have fresh berries ready. Nice. The farm store also has a full kitchen on prem and I had a chance to peek in it. They were making home made shortcakes (the aroma wafted through the store) and fresh strawberry pies on the day I was there. Also a note on accessibility for folks who need to consider it to get in the door. Very nice to see here a paved accessible parking stall right next to the store and a universally accessible ramp as the entry into the building. When I thanked them for making the store accessible because walking across a deep gravel lot like theirs is tough for me (and impossible for wheelchair users) they seemed surprised. :"Do you know we have to do that by law? Make our store accessible to everyone?" LOL....yes, I said, yes I do know that's the law. But you'd be amazed how many farm markets think it is optional. Very nice that they got it right here. Meaning I could get in to spend my money to buy River Bend products. Everyone benefits from equal access.. Friendly people, great fresh products, home made goodies, all people are welcome here access and a beautiful drive yet close to Eugene too. What's not to like? Go!

Stop by here and support this business! Super nice people run this farm, which sells products that…read moreare as fresh and local as can be. I stopped here after berry picking elsewhere and bought some veggies, free range eggs produced by happy roaming chickens (for only $5 a dozen, totally reasonable for the quality), garlic, hazelnuts and hazelnut butter, all kinds of good stuff. My friend bought some jam, and the person who sold it to us had made it fresh that week. They also sell other local products that are great for gifts, like an Oregon canned tuna that you can't find most places. And they aren't trying to brand a bunch of products with their label to increase their stock; the selection and variety are fairly modest but it reflects the most seasonal things growing at that moment, and everything is of the highest quality.

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.

It's mid December and this oasis of fresh fruit and vegetables will soon close for the winter. But…read morewe will anxiously await the arrival in the spring, through summer and fall of the best peaches, apples, pumpkins, herbs, peppers, garlic and a classic cornucopia of healthy treats. Their wide selection of corn is prize winning. And this family owned farm brings you happiness that even the Waltons would envy. See ya in the Spring.

Every Sunday from 11am-4pm, local vendors and artists gather together on 2nd and Van Buren to display their delicious and beautiful goods. From shaved ice to vintage clothing and fresh veggies, you really can find some amazing treasures here. Every person I have met here whether it was a vendor or a passerby has been friendly and welcoming. You really do feel like you're a part of the community when you come here no matter who you are or where you are from. The market hosts yoga sessions, live music and open mic which gives artists an opportunity to showcase their talents. You can even use your EBT card to shop here for fresh food which is amazing! I've purchased essential oil sprays, yummy homemade snacks, organic makeup and my mom even had her tarot cards read. This market continues to grow each year and I can't wait to see what the future holds for this thriving neighborhood full of colorful individuals.

Bigger isn't always better! We visited this farm for u-pick…read morestrawberries. The variety they planted is Albion, they are huge, pithy inside and despite the farm staff saying they are sweet it is not accurate. They are not juicy or sweet and do not fully ripen on the inside. We picked only fully red fruit and tired to pick all sizes, most were HUGE. Picking the fruits was pretty easy but you did have to spend time looking, plants were not "loaded" with ripe fruit. We pick strawberries for eating fresh and freezing for winter use on cereals. We do not use them for jam, desserts or other dishes where sweetener is added. They may work really well for those purposes. The farm is located in a lovely setting and grows a variety of produce, also available at their stand at the Lane Co Farmers Mkt in Eugene. We can't speak for the other produce. the 3-star score is only for the strawberries. We are veteran u-pick folks in the Eugene area. In our long years of experience this strawberry is underwhelming even if it is organic. Other local farms may not be certified organic, you can always ask the farmer about their practices. We have learned that some use IPM and use organic fertilizer or herbicides very sparingly. The varieties are smaller and much tastier.

Great farm stand. All of their offerings are grown by them organically. Some other farm stands in…read morethe area offer wholesale produce that is not organic. Groundworks organic does not.
