Such a beautiful little farmers market experience in Vancouver Just in time for Mother's Day, I…read morefound one of the prettiest bouquets I've seen for only $35 and the quality honestly exceeded my expectations. The flowers looked fresh, vibrant, and thoughtfully arranged -- definitely didn't look like a last-minute grab at all. I also stopped at a small plant stand called Hearth & Hollow where I picked up herbs and vegetable starter plants for my mom's new garden beds. They had an amazing deal -- 3 plants for $10 -- and I ended up leaving with nine plants total because everything looked so healthy and well cared for. Perfect little starter garden setup with herbs and veggies ready to grow. The owner was very pleasant and helpful. The overall vibe of the market was really enjoyable: lots of flowers, plants, local vendors, and people out enjoying the day. The only reason I'm mentioning this is because I expected a little more variety in food options since it's a farmers market, and there honestly weren't many food vendors compared to what I'm used to. Still, overall I absolutely loved walking through it and would definitely go back, especially during springtime. Between the flowers, plants, and atmosphere, it ended up being one of my favorite little stops in Vancouver

They have a variety of vendors - jewelry,…read morecrafts, woodwork, cat nip, bakeries, veggies, produce, artisanal clothing, soaps, coffee, wine, plants, gorgous fresh flower bouquets - all lining wide streets making its easy to walk around and not be enveloped in crowds. In the late summer, early fall the fruit and produce is abundant! Juicy peaches, plums, cherries, the last of the blueberries and blackberries, rhubarb, eggplant, tricolored peppers, and beets fill the stalls. everything so colorful and delicious. Was excited to happen upon the Catnip Takeout booth filled with the most adorable handmade, felted cat toys that of course contain catnip. The owner gives you a takeout box and you fill it with the toys of your choice. She had veggies, mushrooms, hearts, eyeballs, bees, round balls, fruit- all adorable! since my house is very spa like with shades of cream, gray and blues, I was excited to find so many options in these colors. My cat immediately began batting the ball around the minute I gave it to her! The nursery here is the biggest and best I've ever seen at a Farmers Market. The variety of plants was impressive and all were healthy and thriving. they also sell sun catchers, perfect for inside a window or in your garden - every garden deserves a bit of whimsy imo. Lots of food carts serving a variety of cuisines. some are within the market, several more line the street on the outside of the market. The gyros caught my attention, the scent of grilled lamb everywhere. it didn't disappoint! I ordered the mega traditional which had extra meat so I could have half for lunch and the other half for dinner. Love that this market is open both Saturday and Sundays until 3pm April through October. Saturday they open at 9am; on Sundays they open at 10am. Parking is on the street, use parking kitty to pay. On a Sunday at 12:30 I had no issue finding a spot close by.

Hey Babe - offered a good cashew cheez. Rangoon Bistro - AMAZING!!! I love Burmese food, we tried two of their dishes, both were FANTASTIC, but spicy! I still ate it, it was so good. I found their pricing to be unique, they asked for $4-$10 per dish. I was very confused at first when they asked me what would you like to pay? I was like, huh?? They said do to Covid, as many our out of work, so they have a sliding scale, $4 is probably their break-even point, and $10 is probably their normal profit point. When he saw my look of confusion even after the explanation, he said how about $8, I said great! I think they have an AWESOME business model especially during this pandemic. Kate's Plant-based ice cream (vegan) - OMG, absolutely the best dairy-free ice cream I have ever had!!!! I really couldn't even tell it was dairy-free. If only they were local to me. I would be eating their ice cream every day!!!! I was super happy to find this farmers market, being both gluten-free and dairy-free can be hard and this place was perfect for me.

Running Sundays from 10-2, this small market features an impressive variety and selection for its size: Missionary Chocolates, Spiritopia Liquors, various food vendors including bakers, coffee, and such, fresh flowers (all the dahlias!), and several produce stands, one of which sold the best dang crispy tart apples I have ever eaten (I didn't get the name of the apples OR the seller, curses!). Both fellow shoppers and vendors were friendly and kind, everyone seeming to enjoy themselves. Parking was pretty challenging (surprise, surprise), but we eventually found a spot, and it was not too terribly far. This is really a neighborhood farmers market, but I had a great time (and wish I lived in the area so I could shop here with regularity).

Situated near a #4 bus stop by the New Columbia neighborhood, the market offers fresh veggies at good prices, bulk foods (including several Bob's Red Mill items), general pantry items, and some houshold needs.

Village Market is operated by Village Gardens, so you know that whenever you spend money at the market it is going right back to the community to help create a better food environment for everyone. Check it out!

I'd get the "fancy creamers" on Fridays for our participants' never ending appetite for coffee, snacks for myself and my coworkers, and fresh veggies and fruits to enhance the food we had at the shelter. What started as a trip of convenience became one of my favorite parts about coming to work. In its layout the Village Market has the prettiness of a Whole Foods and the spatial logic of a Manhattan Bodega (minus the Bodega cat). But the fresh and culturally correct offerings on its clean, smartly presented shelves are priced way below anything in NYC or Whole Paycheck. It's a freaking gem of a store. The staff (all of whose names and pronouns are listed below shining, colorful photos of their faces on a wall near the dairy section) display the ideal trifecta for corner market employees: genuine friendliness, helpful knowledgeability, and a pride in their establishment that brooks no bull. Shout out to Mo in particular, who read me cold for being a white boy wearing indigenous Arabic pants and having an Arabic tattoo, but then also taught me a new word and let me practice some of my language skills which had been slacking. Village Market is quality products that I loved bringing to our participants at the shelter, and quality people who care about their work and their community. Since we left the Charles Jordan Center, one of the parts I've missed the most is this place. It seems to me the neighborhood feels richer and lovelier for it, without feeling more expensive or elitist. That's a win.

Pablo Munoz Farms has beautiful fresh produce and berries. There's a plant vendor, coffee booth, tamale booth and flower stand.

It's at the corner of Denver and McClelllan St, just off of Interstate Ave. They have the standard mix of local farmers, bakers, salsa-makers, and yes, even a Scoops Ice Cream cart that's perfect for a hot summer's day!!! I especially like having another location to get delicious and cheap apples from the local Kiyokawa orchard (they are great for eating raw as well as drying into apple chips!) I probably won't go here much because I live so far away, but it's nice to know it's there in case I'm in the area (which will be more frequent now that I know Cason's Meat Market is just across the street for my BBQ needs :-) I hope the neighborhood really takes to this idea and helps it grow into a thriving FM that rivals the likes of the Hollywood or Woodstock versions. Once they get one or two large -scale farm stands that offer ALL the veggies you might need (including lettuce, kale, peppers, cucumbers, onions, zucchini, corn, etc), I think they'll really pick up in popularity.

If you're in the dog house and you live in St. John... plus you're broke - go here flowers. . . . your lady friend will love it!

Good Lord. Why has no one told me about these pies before. I got some kind of mixed fruit pie and it was to die for, and that's saying something coming from someone who isn't fruit pies at all. Anyway, back to this little market - street parking was easy enough for me, I didn't notice a dedicated lot anywhere. I arrived toward the end of the day and some of the vendors were starting to pack up. I saw the standard locally grown veggie stands as well as one selling crocheted items, butchered meats (or was it fresh fish?), mushrooms, ceramics, home baked dog treats and sweet little bandanas for your furry family members, among other things. It was calm and quiet, no pressure from the vendors, and just enough variety to warrant a stop in if you are in the area!

But i guess everyone was watching the weather report like we were & came when it was supposed to clear up. We decided to pick our own pumpkin, so we caught the hayride. Definitely recommend as its quite a ways away. The pumpkin field was huge! There were so many good ones to choose from in different colors. We ended up going with 2 little ones as it seemed like a good idea as we werent planning on leaving it & had to carry it around. We then got hungry & opted for some Mexican corn, hot dog, & apple cider donuts. Everything was so yummy, especially the donuts. The line was so long, but worth the wait as they were made fresh. Im so glad we came prepared for walking in the patch. We wore our rubber boots which then proceeded to be caked in mud at the bottom. Your hands will also get dirty from picking your pumpkin, so be aware. Overall it was such a fun day. Till next year.

When I got home and started eating it, I immediately noticed a strange taste. I looked closer and saw a layer of live green mold inside. I'm currently in the early stages of pregnancy, so this really scared me. I went back to the store right away. I told the staff that the pastry had mold, and they responded, "That's not mold -- it's pistachios." They called a manager, who explained that the pastries come frozen, are defrosted, and then sold like that. But I'm absolutely sure it was mold -- I recognized the taste, and it's one I'll never forget. I've accidentally eaten mold before, but never in a dessert. This was disgusting. They gave me a refund, but when I asked about compensation for gas and wasted time, I was told they don't offer that. I didn't even receive an apology for what happened. This was a very unpleasant and stressful experience. I truly hope the store takes product quality more seriously -- especially when it comes to customer health. -- , (, ). , . , . -- . , , . . , . : " , ". , , , . -- . , . . . , , . . . , -- .

I've tried everything from their pulls to their sweets to you name it but the garlic/parm loaf is easily my favorite. I really wish there were more places in Portland that stocked this company's products so I could buy them once summer ends. The flavor and texture of these breads are what sell me on it, plus the loaves last for days and days which is good if you want to make it last. The women at the farmers market booth are always so nice and helpful, a perfect compliment to the wonderful breads. As a side note, I saw something at their booth today that I hadn't seen before, a cinnamon roll. It was the first thing I jumped into when I got home - SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!

I've been visiting them the last 2 years at the Vancouver Farmer market and tried almost all their items.
