They dominate the farmers market. In every category. Without their CSA we would have a much harder time living here. Seriously. Not that we don't absolutely adore food service burritos, frozen and reheated corned beef, and Subway. Tomatoes: best. Watermelons: no one else knows how to grow them. Summer squash: best. Green beans: best. You get the picture. The full list of "bests" would be longer than the rest of this review if I finished it.

The farm has a huge variety of pumpkins -big, small, perfect round ones, all the shapes , so it's easy to find a nice one. They also have a cute little store that sells fresh fruits, veggies, pies, and even pickled goodies. All of that was really reasonably priced. Now... the pumpkins themselves? Kinda pricey in my opinion. Some were around $20, and don't get me wrong, they're beautiful pumpkins, but still on the expensive side. We ended up spending way more than expected ,definitely not dropping $60 on pumpkins again next year . Aside from that, the hotdogs and hot coffee were perfect for the weather, and the tractor ride + corn maze were honestly the highlight. So much fun. I'll definitely go back next year but maybe be a bit more pumpkin-budget smart!

Bryson Farms is an Organic Vegetables Home Delivery Service. My husband and I have been receiving…read morevegetables from them for 5 years. Their vegetables are fresh and tasty, and their customer service is excellent. Full disclosure: I hate vegetables. I only eat them because they are healthy and good for me, and part of being an adult is doing things even if you don't like it because they are good or you. I generally don't like the taste of vegetables, but I have to admit that locally grown organic vegetables taste less objectionable to me than regular vegetables at the grocery store. So there are different size baskets you can get (i.e. for 2 people, 4 people, etc.) and different frequencies for delivery (every week, every 2 weeks, etc.). When you sign up you tell them where on your property you will put your cooler and they will put the delivered vegetables in your cooler. If you forget to put out your cooler, they will use their best judgement as to where the safest place would be to put the vegetables and then they call your emergency contact number to tell you where the vegetables were placed. And hopefully you can make it home to collect your vegetables before the raccoons get to them, lol. The day of the week of your delivery will depend on your postal code. They deliver to different parts of the NCR on different days. This day remains constant. When they deliver your basket, they usually ring the doorbell before they leave. So if you are home, you know that they've come. What you get in your basket is a surprise every time. I actually like this because it's like Christmas (except it's vegetables, and I paid for them, so I guess not too much like Christmas, but you know what I mean). I love coming home to my basket of surprise vegetables. I also love getting things that I have no idea what the heck they are, and have to Google them to see how to prepare and eat them. This also forces me to try new vegetables. I had fiddleheads for the first time because they were in our basket. Some examples of vegetables that we sometimes get in our basket: different types of squash (acorn, butternut, pattypan, etc.), carrots, tomatoes, different types of mushrooms (including exotic ones like oyster, lobster, chanterelle, morels, etc.) kale (green, red, Lacinato, etc.), collard greens, Swiss chard (different colours), cucumbers, bell peppers, fiddleheads, snow peas, garlic scapes, beets, turnips, strange greens (like Lamb's Quarters, Sorrel, etc.), bok choy, parsnips, corn, eggplant, potatoes, sweet potatoes, radishes, spinach, different types of lettuces, microgreens, and so much more!! We sometimes get "prepared foods" like vegetarian chili and roasted tomatoes. We've also gotten garlic powder. Since everything is grown in Shawville, QC, you only get what can be grown in this climate. Although they do have greenhouses, so you get greens year-round. Prices are a bit on the high end, but you get quality foods (and local and organic). 2 person baskets are $60, 4 person baskets are $75, 6 person baskets are $100. They also have specialty baskets like all greens basket, all roots basket, etc. And if you really don't like something, you can tell them that you don't want that item in your basket. Customer service is excellent. They are very professional and accountable. Once they made a mistake and forgot to deliver our basket. When we contacted them, they apologized and said they would deliver it the next day and give us some extra vegetables for the inconvenience, which they did. They are quick to respond to correspondences and are very nice. If you are looking for home delivered locally grown organic vegetables and you live in the NCR, I would definitely recommend Bryson Farms!!

This is the first out of two dates for the market, the next one being next Saturday, November 27th, from 10am to 2pm. As a mama with a stroller, it was difficult to maintain the 2 metres of social distancing, especially when lining up for specific vendors, but we tried to keep as much distance from people as possible, masks were mandatory, and everyone was very respectful. Try not to handle any of the goods unless you're going to buy them - the vendors are more than happy to give you your items. There are also squares for payment via credit or credit (tap and insert available, but tap is preferable to avoid less touching, though there's also hand sanitizer at all vendor stations). The layout is a big circle, so traffic just moves in one direction, counterclockwise. If you missed something or wanted to go back, rather than going backwards, you just keep going around the circle until you're back to where you started. I thought it would be a good idea to take one loop around to see what there was first before buying, and then come back for the stuff I wanted, but I did end up missing out on some things because they sold out so quickly. My friend and I went at around 12:45pm and left when it was starting to close around 2, and it was still busy, with people buying whatever was leftover. Note that you can pre-purchase or reserve from some vendors online or via e-mail so that it doesn't sell out on you (thanks, Nat's Bread!). Speaking of bread, I thought that's all I was coming for, but nope, BIG NOPE. A lot of awesome local food and a super sore shoulder later, I left with a giant haul. There were tons of gifts and specialty food as well, and even a little shop with crafts and coffee truck for hot beverages, but I ended up doing some groceries. I'm really excited to try everything I bought, from savoury pies, sausages, and beef ribs, to fresh bread, ice cream sandwiches, chipotle maple syrup, organic apple sauce, red potatoes, and nacho chips! I could've bought more, but my reusable bag (that they give you for free at the entrance) and my stroller could only hold so much. It was a little muddy and rocky with the stroller, but nothing we couldn't handle, and it wasn't too chilly, either. Try heading all the way in with your car because there was plenty of parking in the lot, but tons of people parked on the side of the road when it wasn't necessary. And it's a shorter distance to carry everything you bought from the market to the car ;)

Anyway, the store is out in the boonies. But if you're around the area/looking for a country drive it's a great place to stop in.

A few years ago, I met the owner of the Cheff Fields Farm. They are from Renfrew, and they raise alpacas (they have over 30 animals), and the Cheffs sell yarn produced from the alpaca fur. If you have never touched alpaca fur, you need do do so! It is really, really soft - certainly softer than sheep's wool! And the surprising thing is that alpaca fur is 5% warmer than sheep's wool! I visited the market on the last day of operation for 2017, as I needed yarn for a cowl I am making. The Cheffs had this beautiful red yarn in a 600 meter hank; that's plenty long enough! I will be busy for the next few weeks. While at the market, I also acquired a few seedlings to plant in our yard. It was a beautiful day for a visit to the farmer's market.

I was last at Aberdeen Pavilion four years ago. We were at 613flea on a Saturday. On Sundays, it switches to being the Ottawa Farmers' Market here. It's cool that if you love farmers' markets, you can get your fix the entire weekend here. We walked around, browsing and thinking about what we wanted to get for lunch. We sampled homemade kimchi that was pretty good. Free samples are always terrific. I always find inspiration being a tourist and witnessing products that I have never seen. Vodcow was one of them. It's a lactose-free chocolate cream liqueur. Cool! Che Malambo caught my attention. Whenever I see an empanada, I want it. It's exactly what happened at this stand. I got a beef empanada that had so much filling that it wanted to burst. It was my first time having egg sharing the same filling stage as the beef. The egg was excellent. The filling was seasoned nicely. The outer part of the empanada was yummy. There was live music happening as we browsed. There was also a strawberry social inside Aberdeen Pavilion, but we didn't see much. It was a bit of a disappointment, as it was strawberry season. No demos. No samples. Nothing. Oh, well! We both stopped at the Thai Kitchen Catering Service stand. I ended up getting more finger food. I ordered a pork wonton and a shrimp spring roll. The man at the stand was so nice that he gave me a pork wonton on the house. I also got a Thai iced tea. Drinks were self-serve once you got a cup from him. I made the mistake of pouring sala cider instead. Oops! He was great getting me another cup and I made sure that I got Thai iced tea, which was cold and excellent on a hot day. We sat down and ate. I loved my pork wontons. They were crispy on the outside. The filling was nicely seasoned. I could taste basil, which made them heavenly. There was decent shrimp filling in the spring roll, which had a nice crunch to it. My friend got the chicken pad khee mao. She loved it. She said that it had bean sprouts, which she wasn't fond of. There weren't a lot of them and ate them all. I didn't have a chance to swoop in and eat them for her! It was fun watching a couple across from us with tackle eating a jerk chicken meal. We may have missed that stand, but we were practically doing play-by-play commentary about the jerk chicken going down. People-watching is a fun activity here. The produce and fruit that vendors had this day looked so fresh and vibrant. Although I didn't see much going on at the strawberry social, I will remember smelling ripe strawberries as we passed by various vendors and how happy I was. (259)

Everything at the market is locally grown or made. They have lots of vegetables and some fruits, products like honey, maple syrup, jams and spreads.

There are also artisans that make jewelry, soaps, wooden cutting boards, and other items. Some vendors are there all the time, and some only occasionally.
