Thus expect the farmers market to be at a special caliber. But APPROACHABLE. ITS GORGEOUS! ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! I'm not going into all the vendors because I'll be here all morning, and I'm hungry. But I will tell you that the berries, tomatoes, quiche ($75 for 2, so bring your kids tuition with you), the baked goods... just superb. Beautiful flowers. And the Osterville Historical Museum is open to the shoppers. BONUS! I went nuts grabbing everything I could until a ping on my phone said "honey, I think the card company needs to raise our spending limit" AND I was grabbing so many sweets, I felt a small guilt attack... Well, I got over that quickly... Everything is just beautiful, quality crafted, lots of love put into the produce and products. I was a bit unkind to the poor granola ladies who were so proud that their product is "glutten free, no sugar, etc." (it was ok, bland as all get out, but if you live in the hoity world of elite botox, Vineyard Vines, everyone wants to live to 100 looking 25... you'll understand the push)... I'm like "I'm sorry ladies but I like sugar, fat, alcohol, etc..." as I sampled the dry and bland cranberry granola (bless their hearts). I should have kept my trap shut. They're like "You're so lucky to not care and be able to enjoy those things" (back handed compliment, but I deserved it). Listen people, we are ALL going to die anyway and I doubt I will live to 100... to each their own. I just need to wear my chakras well and not be so rude. They were beautifully thin, tanned and healthy and proud of their product (it's good, just not for me). Throwbacks are parking and ANGRY people. Jeeze. Shoppers and some of the vendors are just ANGRY, and politely rude. But that can happen when "white rich" congregate (NOT ALL PEOPLE, but a big chunk of them - you don't see this in Newburyport or other lower key farmers markets). Overall, it's beautiful, full of delicious and wonderful things, and some people from out our way were having a joyful time. Friday 9-2, Jun 4-Oct 1. You're welcome. Because if you can ignore the angry birds, you are in for a treat! ITS BEAUTIFUL!

What a pleasant time we had at the Mid-Cape Farmer's Market…read more It's easy to get to and has free parking! You can find it on the corner of Main and High School Road on the lawn of the First Baptist Church. It has maybe a dozen tents, close together so you can visit all of the vendors in a reasonable time. The market is only held on Wednesdays between 2:00 and 6:00. A really nice variety of friendly vendors sell local produce, specialty items, meats, breads and bakery goodies, honey, handmade soaps, etc. We picked up three amazing looking macaroons and a nice gift-pack of cookies.

Rounding up "farm stands on 6A near Yarmouth Port" during this, the Christmas Tree buying season…read more My Mom's had the Cape Cod Organic CSA for a couple of years, then dropped back to buying a la carte. The produce here is excellent, best-of-breed for fresh and local on the Cape as far as we've experienced, and I do think we've tried every stand that there is or has been over the last fifty years (we remember when there were cows on farms on 6A). The only knock we have on CCO Farm is the usual issue for organic produce: it's pretty expensive. The CSA box was less so but we ended up having more wastage per pound of produce, and the season is just very short up here, to be sure. There's a big plus though that where the stand is is literally adjacent to the food they're growing for you, and the ownership seems very responsible. Bonus Christmas Tree info: they sell balsams / firs for $40 flat rate, mostly taller trees, in good shape and fresh enough, with some wreaths, but on two visits to attempt to buy one this year, we waited around for 15 minutes and nobody showed up to help us or take our money, so we took a pass and went down the road to Cape-Abilities. FWIW.

Leading to the fact that they have an excellent selection of pork products. Fantastic breakfast sausage, great kielbasa and Italian sausage. The staff is friendly and helpful. As others have mentioned, it is a bit pricey. But, you know where the food is coming from and it is organic. Worth it to me. Buy fresh buy local.

I thought they were exaggerating until I experienced both myself. This is by far the best chicken pot pie I've ever had in my life. I live in Boston and I'm tempted to take the ferry to purchase more!! The quiche was also soo delicious, but I'm not a quiche girlie, so I would only repurchase if I had folks to share it with. I was planning on visiting sometime this summer, but I'm having withdrawals and need more pot pie sooner!!

If you take an early boat over, we usually grab the 9:05 from Hyannis and that gives us plenty of time to walk through. Watch your step and footing. The roads are cobble stone and very hard, uneven and unforgiving. People tend to get a little pushy-shovey and the it's densely packed. Crafts, art, food stuff (honey, spices, etc.), and farm fresh vegetables grown on island when seasonable. It's great, but we've never bought any vegetables as we'd have to carry them all day. That said, it is still a fun time. Keep it local!

But the food I took to go, all presumably made in house, was lacking. One would figure being on the Cape, an establishment would be judged by its chowder. This was a decent soup but an unrecognizable chowder. Very fluid, not at all thick, and flavor tasted more like chicken stock and white wine. The scones were completely flavorless. Save the chunky bits of sugar on top. Cornbread was decent if not more like a cake. I wish the food matched the warm exchange I had with the staff. Lots of great parking and outside seating atleast.
