Have been splitting a CSA box this season with my sister from Deercrest. The boxes have contained…read morean abundance of fruits and vegetables for two people. I'm glad I have the box every other week due to the volume of food. The quality of the produce is lovely. The owner is friendly and accommodating when you have questions about produce and items currently not in stock such as hard cider. I have also purchased other items from the farm stand which I've greatly enjoyed such as cider, honey, maple syrup, date coconut rolls, additional vegetables for certain recipes, and additional 1/2 pecks of apples. Two weeks ago I was with my sister when she asked about a certain type of apple for drying. Unfortunately, that type had already passed the season. The owner suggested another apple which was just as flavorful. She purchased a box full which he carried out for her. I would like to add, be kind and patient with all local farmers. This is their life. We are all just visiting to purchase items we might otherwise buy at the market. Doing this doesn't make you better or more altruistic than anyone else. Nor does it give you perceived rights to behave in a manner that in retrospect causes you to look ugly. Show respect. Show empathy. Be considerate. Wear your masks correctly. Watch your children.

Fruits, vegetables, eggs, milk, cheese, seasonal flowers, canned goods like jams, jellies, sauces, dried herbs, and so on! I especially remember Mr. Wade (RIP) great family man with a very green thumb. The Wade family still greets every visitors with impeccable service and a warm fireplace where the Family's cat can be found snuggled up. The Stand is always decorated for the season and the holidays. Open year round.

A farm stand located on a busy Simsbury Road in Bloomfield, CT. It started as a dairy farm in 1919…read more In 1969, it moved to this location which was larger for the growing business. It is still owned an operated by the Wade family. I drove by and saw the huge Wade's sign and a busy parking lot; it was spacious and easy to pull in and out, just becareful with incoming traffic. The outside area had various plants. When I walked inside, it was spacious and a very organized store. They had jams, snacks, produce, pies, baked goods, etc. I was gretted by the friendly employees. On this visit, I purchased strawberry-rhubarb jam, cookies, an onion, and corn muffin. Those were all very fresh and tasty. Everything in the store was fresh looking. I saw the corn after but was already out the door so I'm looking forward to going back for that.

There are 28 variety of apples which compared to the one I work at which has 13. 130 acers in comparison to to the 82 at ours. The bags are sold at 2$ a pound so a half bushel filled will be around $40 and a peck will be roughly $20. My opinion get the bang for your buck and go all out. Creston apples are phenomenal! Reminds me of a ginger gold, great crunch, awesome flavor! I told my buddy here needs to buy these for his farm. Love the fact that a lot of rows are done in trellis style which I never seen before and make a great deal of sense for tree to acreage. They are also very manageable for picking that everything for me (6'1" tall) is grabbing reach. So you smaller people do not have to do all that jumping ;) Being the weekend before Columbus weekend the trees are on their last stretch of apples but the middle of the rows still have plenty for picking. The farm itself has blueberries, peaches, plums and pears too but certainly now out of season. The store itself is a nice treat. I filled a bag full of goodies to accommodate my sweet tooth but also to support the farm. The store is open seven days a week seven months out of the year.

Supermarket corn is ok, however, driving up to the farm stand & seeing someone walking in from the field with a basket of just harvested corn is the best. They have 3 kinds: silver queen ( that's what I call it), all light kernels - very delicate; butter-sugar which is a mix of the yellow & light color kernels ( my all-time favorite), and the all yellow - very good too. There are other veggies here too and flowers. Totally worth the ride over even if you live outside of Glastonbury.

There is excellent signage on Farmington Avenue that leads you to a big lot behind the market. We saw a smallish number of eclectic vendors - a Jamaican food stand, a bakery, a few produce stands, a jewelry stand, an artwork stand, a Hartford Library on Wheels truck, and more. We made two purchases - a Nutella babka from Manchester's Wicked Good Bakes and a Jerk Barbecue Mushroom Patty Panada from Hartford's The Ital Juicery Company. I had an absolute blast at the Ital Juicery stand. They had three generations of charming and delightful women behind the counter. That Patty Panda (sort of a cross between an Empanada and a Jamaican Patty) was a good-sized portion, somewhat justifying the hefty $10 price tag, but the flavor was amazing. Smoky, savory, and spicy, I mean sneaky spicy. Not sure what kind of peppers were in there, but if you told me they were Jamaican Scotch Bonnets I would not be surprised. That afterburn lasted over half an hour. I'll definitely be on the lookout for The Ital Juicery Company when I make the rounds of upcoming Farmer's Markets. As for the West End Farmer's Market, they're open on Tuesdays between June and September from 4pm-7pm. The hours change slightly to 3pm-6pm in October. PRO TIP Five stars for their community service vibe. "The West End Farmers' Market of Hartford believes that everyone deserves access to fresh, healthy and delicious food". To that end, they match SNAP/EBT spending, effectively doubling the amount a buyer can use there.

Friendly, knowledgeable and willing to share suggestions with the community. Kind and supportive. Every table I touched was so passionate about what they have grown, or made to offer. To future customers I would like to share don't ever judge a book by its cover. The road work did not stop me. So glad I found my way. From the freshest fruit of the season all the way to the Maple Syrup, Sour Dough. Micheal and his abundant happy herbs, jewelry and soap. The comfrey plants were such a joy to my eyes. Healing through herbs is the way we're supposed to heal. Coexist with the plant kingdom. The community at this market was nothing but love Looking forward to my next return back to CT

In a plastic quart take-out container, they'd captured the essence of "green New England Summer." (In case you're wondering, as my friends do, "Summer red" is tomatoes and "Summer yellow" is corn. Green heretofore had been the pickles I make from local Kirby cukes, local dill and garlic. Well, now I don't have to make 'em! Eddy farms makes them for us, and their pickles are better than mine! They offer amazing, perfect vegetables off all sorts. And lovely flowers. Just lovely. Astounding arrays of color that last a long, long time (especially if you trim them daily and refresh the water). I offer one warning: if you're cheap, don't go here. Good things cost good money. The pickles are $7. I've only paid that for pickles at Katz's deli in New York. We weren't shocked, but I'm sure some frugal Yelpers will be off-put by the prices, but, hey, this ain't Stop & Shop! Go here at least once every two Summer weeks and you'll never tire of the variety of surprises. I feel better just getting out of the car at the farm stand and breathing in the smells, and basking in the sun on the side of a rural road!
