Soft guitar music playing while all the beautiful foliage surrounds all the various kiosks. Like something out of Pinterest. I feel like the photos don't do the actual experience justice. Overall, I thought the stalls were decently priced and we bought a lot of items ranging from fresh beets, garlic, mixed greens, to fresh cheese, and mushrooms. Apart from food and produce they sell yarn that comes from the wool of local sheep. I saw a distillery stall where they were handing out samples - it had quite the line. A stall that sold dry teas and infused syrups (I bought one actually) Maple syrup, soaps, I could go on. There's a booth for those who use Hip and apparently from $10 you get $30 to spend so it's a place where even those on a low budget can come and take advantage. Then there's the food which, you should definitely try. It was our first time trying food from Afghanistan and it was incredible. They were like these dumplings filled with either meat or squash, we chose the squash, and then it had lentils on top and a rich yogurt sauce that was absolutely phenomenal. I mean, honestly, it was a great experience, and the place itself is so beautiful, it's no wonder that there's lines of cars parked and others waiting to find parking. That's the only drawback, finding parking is gonna be rough, but when you do, ohhh the goodies that await you! I honestly wish I lived here, I'd be at this farmers market every Saturday.

And fresh cut flowers. And meat from the animals that they raise on their farm. And they sell it at competitive prices. Not with exorbitant mark ups. The jam being sold was made in some ones kitchen - not at some mini factory. Same with the baked goods. It's held up on Academy Hill in Westminster. A big grassy field that you can easily sit down in. Live music on the band stand. Quite a few trees that provide shade for those hot days.

But, they are great choices of people, many of whom operate in Pittsfield or adjacent towns. I am a huge fan of Square Roots Farm, Hilltop Orchards and Cricket Creek Farms. Hardly a week goes by that I do not get something from each of them. Many others are also great. Here is a tip -- if you have the time -- go to both this market and the one in Lanesboro at the Berkshire Mall. They are at the same time and are only a few miles apart. The difference is that most of the Lanesboro vendors get their produce from the Pioneer Valley (Springfield / Northhampton / Amherst region). Their growing season is a little different. So, sometimes you will find fresh strawberries in one market and fresh blueberries in the other.

It is certainly possible that later in the season, this is a much more farmer oriented market, but…read moremy visit in late June was disappointing. Only a couple of vendors with fresh produce.

The property is situated a bit past the Massachusetts border and it is easily spotted by the large red barns. This farm not only sells fresh items such as eggs, meats, and maple syrup, but they sell other items such as hay bails. This farm houses a dog kennel which accepts dogs of all sizes, and they also raises and sells Golden Retrievers. The other reason that this farm is so incredible is that during the fall they host multiple events. They have a corn maze and petting zoo for the children during the day, and more mature events during the evening and night. These events include a haunted hayride as well as haunted corn maze.
