E'buono brings the neighborhood flair with baked goods made from jams, made from fruits grown in their OWN garden. And they're impressively delicious - try their thumbprint and fig cookies!! And my all time fave, Uncle Ping's, with larger than life pulled pork sandwiches (made w love over 12 hours), amazing from scratch, locally sourced ingredients dumplings. Omg this must be heaven. My other favorites here are Pierre's bakery, Mendoza Farms, and Spring Valley Farms. All vendors are fantastic but these have been my go-tos.

This farmer's market has become my happy place during the pandemic. Please note this is not to say…read morethey are not pandemic compliant because they are, you need a mask, there can be lines at vendors as they are servicing one customer per employee at a time, You point and the vendor selects, everyone takes credit cards, and they ask that you move in one direction past the vendors (there are arrows to follow). There is a county team that keeps things moving and compliant. Because of all of these precautions this is a safe place. All that said, it has became a pandemic happy place for me because I can get fresh fruits and veggies, plants, honey, and herbs as well as bread, coffee, desserts, Mediterranean goodies, and Latin American eats. I look forward to enjoying an almond pastry with warm coffee as I carry fresh bread, tomatoes, empanadas with spicy sauce, and garlic whip to my car. I am so glad the vendors here have become more varied than when I first reviewed them a couple years ago. A huge thank you to the both the vendors and team that keeps this operating, I am thankful for this happy place.

Everything you see in the picture is From The Farmer!! From the tomatillos to the black radishes…read moreand everything in between. My family has tried various online "fresh food" companies, pre-made meal, you name it and they were just ok... usually the food did not last and was mediocre at best. We love our local famers market but even with our good intentions, we rarely made it on time. When my hubs stumbled upon FTF I was skeptical but really liked the idea of delivery, subscriptions and ala cart options and loved supporting our local farmers and businesses so we gave it a try. Here we are two yrs later and we still LOVE it! The fruits and veggies are so fresh that they typically arrive still covered in soil... this is actually our families favorite part! After about 6 months of receiving the subscriptions, we started ordering ala cart items and for the last year or so we've been getting about 75% of our weekly food from FTF. The meats, bakery, dairy and pantry items are all great! FTF is also not like a CSA where you tend to get the same items week after week. They have variety and this makes it fun for the whole family. We've received items that either we would never have chosen or had never eaten and we love it. If you are a meal planner than FTF is a wonderful option bc you get an email of the items that will come the following week and you have plenty of time to plan accordingly. The recipes and storage tips they provide are a great touch too. If you are traveling then it's super easy to suspend the service for as long as needed. Now, are they perfect, no however they do a darn good job fixing mistakes and are quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Sometimes there are missing or unavailable items and we will either receive a credit for or will get a little extra of another item. Personally, we would rather get that credit or extra item then a subpar product that would end up in the trash. There is a lot of talk in the reviews about the surprise email halting delivery to re-vamp and let me tell you, we were SAD... so sad but they worked hard to get back online and we were super excited to receive an email a week later announcing they were back up and running. Dealing with the logistics of fresh foods and delivery to the (very large) Balt-Wash area can not be easy, fresh food is very temperamental. The best part of it all... our 5yo son gets super excited to see the "red bags" on our front porch every week and he's learning about fresh foods and how important it is to support our local farmers. Thank you FTF! Keep it up :)

Ok people, here it is. This one is legit!…read more Have you walked past a farmer's market on a weekend (for some reason you were up early enough to see that one in DuPont); but you were on your way to brunch, or the airport....and thought.....I've always wanted to get local and fresh food....maybe cook more at home...eat healthier.....I'll have to hit that up later? Then, the next 10 weekends are just to hard to get out of bed and down there in time?? Yes? Well then just have From the Farmer deliver those groceries to your door? You heard me....YOUR DOOR!! You just wake up on a Friday morning and there is this cool basket stuffed with produce picked at a local farm....maybe even some cheese in there made locally! Small batch jam is your thing.....I GOT THAT IN MY BASKET TOOOOO, along with fresh baked bread, one week I got pasta sauce!!!!!! If all my capital letters and exclamation marks weren't enough to convince you to give this product a try, let's just say that I've heard horror stories of other "organic" or local-based CSA deliveries. I don't have time or money for shriveled and half rotten fruits and veggies! I also want to help support my local economy and keep my carbon foot-print as low as possible (heaven knows I waste enough glass products on my mimosa weekend brunches....and hence can't make it to the Farmers Market.....do you see the cyclic scenario here?)! Professional and reliable, great products, helpful website and Facebook page! This product is legit! Give local a try. Small basket options for people who don't need to much run about $45 a week, and a larger basket to feed the whole family are about $70. Stay seasonal, eat local, be happy, be healthy! "You can pay the doctor, or you can pay your farmer"!!

A good experience at Let's Meat On The Avenue. A local butcher shop providing virtually all of your…read moremeat requirements. They claim to source from local suppliers when possible and their beef is humanely and pasture-raised. They also prepare fresh sausage, weekly. Also available here is food for animals, smoked meats, animal fat for cooking, and grill products. The prices are a bit steep considering the meat is some of the highest quality you can get without having access to a local farm or raising and butchering your own livestock. The customer service is friendly. I do recommend researching and having knowledge of the specific cut of meat you desire before going to this butcher or any butcher for that matter. Butchers have a tendency to recommend alternatives when they are out of a specific cut. Many times they are spot on, but for the seemingly uneducated it can be an opportunity for bad businesses to offload a lesser or expiring cut for as much if not more expensive. On one visit I wanted boneless short rib and the butcher here appropriately recommended Denver cut which is the alternate name for this cut. A novice might not know this. Overall a good experience. I'll visit again when in the area.

My first visit at this location, however, was for a return. Interestingly, the customer service desk is near the stairwell & escalator just outside of the store. This made my visit much quicker than expected, which was a definite plus. While this branch opened its doors in mid 2022, somehow I just discovered it a few months ago. I guess you learn something new everyday, folks.

Don't expect the wide selection of some of the larger farmer's markets in the area--but do still expect plenty of high-quality options! This is a great place for a quick stroll while you grab brunch and a couple of grocery items. On a recent visit, I picked up mushrooms grown in Maryland, freshly pressed juice, cooked barbecue, spring onions, daikon, and baklava. Next time I plan to get some marinated olives, smoked salmon, peaches, and radishes. There are several sandwich and snack options (cookies, donuts, etc) as well as drinks, including coffee. The farmer's market is not too far from Ballston. There is a small school parking lot, too. Worth checking out and coming back for more.

I just moved to the area and I'm super happy that there's a farmer's market nearby. This will be…read moremy motivation to wake up earlier on Saturdays! This farmers market is independent of the farmfresh ones that are around dc and northern virginia. Vendors are selling fresh fruits and vegetables, Turkish food (börek [like their empanadas], pide [similar to pita but more fluffy], simit [like sesame bagels], red lentil dip), French macarons, madeleines, fresh fish, goat cheese, pickled foods, jams, fresh bread, etc. Since it's covid time they are limiting the number of people at a time and you are required to wear a mask. When you arrive, you need to wait in line for the staff to let you in. Once you are inside, proceed to each both in a zig zag path. The exit is at the end and you're not supposed to backtrack to the front. As you can see in my pics, there's a fence to prevent excited shoppers from entering early. The vendors all seemed pretty nice except for one who ignored me. Still, I was pleased with this farmers market and will definitely return. Highly recommended! This year they are open every Saturday 8am until noon until November 21, I believe.
