The prices are pretty good and I definitely get my money's worth. They have a few pre-packaged "grab and go" vegetables for a $1 if you don't feel like picking and bagging your veggies yourself. I wish I still lived in the neighborhood but even though I don't anymore I still occasionally take a train out to Growing Farm.

I have passed this place several times, but never really had a chance to stop by to explore it, yesterday I figured that I'll give it a shot, and I was not disappointed at all. I arrived a minute after their closing time (As usual...) and most of the refrigerators where closed down already and some lights out, but the super nice Mr. Harvest (didn't catch his name) told me that I could come in and get my stuff... So, running around like a penguin, I grab some interesting looking produce (Mini baby eggplants, Wild mushrooms, Sabra etc.) and I ask the guy if he has some fresh clementine's and he's like, "Sure thing Abe" and opens all the refrigerators for me to browse through the other stuff as well, and although it was already all closed shop he was really nice and attentive, and then I spotted my new best friend, Mr. Pink! Now Mr. Pink is a Orange that is Pink from the inside (Orange is the new black?! me thinks Orange is the new Pink!) and has a sweet and refreshing flavor and definitely worth the extra quarter . So, in overall this place is a nice little place with a rustic interesting décor (Huge wooden wheel chandelier, brick walls and so on..) and they have all the "Cream Of The Crop" produce that you normally won't find in your local supermarket, at very reasonable prices and great customer service. Harvest, I think you're going places...

And I purchased bacon so I could take home. I handed the woman $50 she looked at it a good 10 times which is understandable just to make sure your counterfeit count is low I get it. She took my money and change and threw it at me yeah I stood there in disbelief and then she said what! I said I'm used to people handing me money when I hand them money, asked is this a cultural thing why you're so rude. she said take your money and get out of here. I replied this will be the last time I frequent this establishment she said I don't care get out. If I think Race was. Culprit I'd be lying to myself.

Decent juice bar too!

While I did really enjoy the items I purchased, only having 3 vendors was very shocking. So I went…read morein looking specifically for tomatoes since the local supermarkets all have shit tomatoes, I was looking to make a classic Southern tomato sandwich. The first stand, which was closer to Baxter, was huge and had just about everything but their tomatoes looked very basic. So I walked to Kernan Farms and they had 3 beautiful varieties of tomatoes, I ended up getting a large heirloom tomato which was perfect and these really bright and colorful yellow tomatoes. Lastly I stopped at Meredith's Bakery and got an unbleached white loaf of bread and it was really great toasted, perfect for the tomato sandwich. Also, their chocolate chip cookie which was softer than what I prefer for a cookie was surprisingly good. The pumpkin cookie was soft as well but I loved the fall flavors. The market is only open on Tues from 8am-3pm

The largest stand also operates at the Jackson Heights greenmarket on Sundays, and is typically my go-to for summer corn, basil, summer squash, and zucchini, along with a great selection of peppers and greens. This is a smaller farmer's market than some in the city, but I like that it's open on a weekday and is filled with the diversity of the neighborhood.

La Finca has your standard issue Puerto Rican/Dominican vegetable needs: cilantro, chayote, garlic, yuca, platanos, guineos, onions, peppers, spices, etc and much more. They also have an increasingly growing selection of Mexican goods. But if you want your real deal Mexican foods got to the little Mexican stores that pepper Broadway Avenue. But why? why am I writing this review. You can get fruits and veggies everywhere? WRONG! This the only place in a 10 block radius where you can get FRESH, CHEAP and YUMMY vegetables. C-town veggies quality sucks, food bazaar (on myrtle and broadway) is hit or miss and overpriced and Mr. Kiwi is WAY TOO EXPENSIVE!! La Finca has a small but fresh and inexpensive selection of fruits and veggies. Believe the hype--the price and quality really is that good. You don't need fancy packaging and store decor to see, feel and taste quality. Don't believe me...after you drop off your package at the post office come by La Finca. I guarantee you will leave with a bag of groceries.

Just drop about 8 of their signature ravioli into a pot of boiling water (with a touch of olive oil added to the water), boil for about 5 minutes, throw them onto a plate with a slotted spoon, drizzle some fine olive oil, some herbs (basil, nutmeg, get creative), perhaps a bit of grated parmesean, then sit down with a nice glass of wine and enjoy a fine meal. My personal favorites are the aged goat cheese, asparagus (seasonal), wild mushroom and white truffles in a porcini pasta, but there's enough variety to charm everyone's palate.
