An absolutely amazing farmer's market. This was our wild card spot on our recent trip to Victoria…read moreand probably the best stop of the trip. This farmers market packed in the feels (you will get a real countryside feel visiting this one) watching the locals and with the local bands playing Scottish music. The vendors are unique and the products they carry even more unique. You would feel drawn to almost every single tent. The tenants are warm and welcoming. The market is held on a community school backyard with a playground at the back. So if you are visiting with kids, plenty of options to manage the little tyrants. I got my toddler a very nice wooden bow & arrow and he loves it! We got wine, cheese, chocolate and everything was so good. I cannot explain but this market had that warm, happy, community vibe to it and that feeling is amazing. This will be my stop on every single visit to Victoria.

Echoing another review, I don't know why this farmers market has such a low score! Yes, it is…read moresmall, but it's highly curated. There's no mass produced slop to dilute out the offerings. The board ensures that everything is locally produced and high quality. There are flowers, bakeries, produce, soaps, even art here. I love how friendly everyone is here. One of the bread bakers was offering samples of the breads he had for sale. It was enough to convince me to buy a loaf! Pane d'Amore also sets up shop here. They have three locations: Port Townsend, Sequim, and Bainbridge island. I never seem to be in those locations when they're open, so it was a pleasant surprise to see them here. I managed to load up on pastries from them. They're all so delicious. I like how this market is open all year, with the offerings varying depending on the month.

It is small, but it's got character and variety of arts and craft, food stalls, fresh flowers, and fresh produce. Coming from HI, where prices are high and some veggies are not available or, available but not in the best condition, this place has both great options and prices. I haven't seen carrots this orange and with tops on 'em in a long time. I chopped up the carrot greens, added minced garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper, and crushed red peppers. So yummy. As for the mushrooms, made beef and mushroom stroganoff. The parsley was fresh and plentiful top off the pasta and cheap! Overall, if you're passing by, definitely stop and visit.

The produce is so fresh and so good and I look forward to my weekly visit to Stoup to grab my magical box!

My family and I even had a chance to visit the farm last year. All in all, this is great and I'm sad to think the season is coming to an end. We'll be back in 2021!

Coming from California with many farmers markets in our own hometown we find ourselves very…read moreaccustomed to them & are actually quite spoiled. This one rates maybe slightly above average as we were able to find that awesome homemade souvenir from Canada compared to going to your run of the mill tourist souvenir shops. We probably would have had to walk into downtown for those souvenir stores but my wife decided otherwise & made a direct detour for the market. There were some savory food options as well as yummy looking desserts! We passed on those items & my wife looked straight for a particular set of Canadian homemade souvenirs. She was elated! Thankfully we happened to be in town on a Saturday when the farmer's market was only opened from 9-3 PM! Also we came prepared with Canadian money on hand to pay for our items. Woohoo! Many craftspeople were apparently very talented as it showed through their lovely artsy materials & craftsmanship. We also observed some people offering tastings of their foods too to tempt you! We heard entertainment & people were there to enjoy & there were seats for them as well! We Californians brought the sunny weather to Victoria British Columbia to enjoy fully on a lovely Saturday morning!

First time going to this market, on Saturday it was great until the booth with the homemade jewelry…read moreI think she had forks and spoons as jewelry and the massive no photo sign on her booth. I was walking around with my phone in my hand and she out of nowhere yells at me telling me to delete the photos on my phone. I was clearly very confused and the man she was talking to was very confused as my phone was by my side in my hand. But she continued to yell at me accusing me of taking photos of her or her booth I'm not sure but after I told her I have no idea what she is talking about she dropped it but no apology or anything just outright very rude and aggressive. This market was great but this one booth honestly made me not wanna go back to this market. This older woman was extremely scary. So if you see it stay clear or keep your phone out of sight unless you want your head bitten off

I spent a weekend at the Doe Bay Resort, on another part of the island, but visited the downtown area for an afternoon with my husband and some of our friends. We ended up spending most of our time at the Orcas Island Farmers' Market, which seemed like the place to be on a Saturday afternoon. It was super fun and festive, a bunch of vendors set up on a wide green lawn, with tons of people out enjoying the various offerings and the lively atmosphere. We wandered around, browsing the crafts and food stalls. I ended up getting oysters--raw, grilled, and fried--from Local Goods and a Polynesian plate from Moa Grill. Some tasty, substantial gratuitous snacking. If you're on Orcas Island during a farmers' market Saturday, I'd definitely recommend stopping by for some food and people watching. It's a great way to experience the vibrant villagey feel of this lovely island.

There were at least a dozen food stalls selling anything from home baked bread, cookies, donuts, Mexican food, and Asian. There were stalls selling arts and crafts which are unique to Orca's. We picked up some lunch and enjoyed as the local band sweet music on the stage. A few folks and their kids got off the ground and started dancing. What a scene, as if it's out of a movie scene. It was truly magical.
