Every time we come up for a visit, my sister-in-law brings me to the Amish Farmers Market (AFM)…read more The vendors are lined up around the outer perimeter of the parking lot of Charlotte Hall Library. It's been 4 years since my last visit and not much has changed. Each vendor seems to have their permanent spot in the back lot. I love it simply for the fact that it is truly a farmers market. No crafts or jewelry here. However, there are only a couple of vendors who are not farmers, but still food related. One sells local wine and they are only there on Saturdays. The gentleman at Pap's Produce said the hours of operation is Monday to Saturday from 8am to 5pm. I am not sure if these are just summer hours, as I forgot to ask him. At this market you can find a variety of fruits and vegetables, as well as plants and flowers and baked goods. They all carry similar things, but each vendor seems to carry one item that is cheaper than the other. - Parking - Private lot of Charlotte Hall Library. I purchased goods from the following vendors: Pap's Produce - a dozen corn for $5. This vendor is on the end lot by the entrance to the parking lot with a white shed. Their name is marked on the doorway of the shed in really small writing. They had Silver King Corn (white kernel) corn, which seems to be the common crop around that area. It was piled high, neatly on a folding table. The husks were bright green with no blemishes and they seemed to have picked them that morning. I opened each one and the kernels were perfect! Cooked them later for dinner and they were so fresh. Clover Hill Produce (CHP) - Cantaloupe, 3 for $5. The aroma of cantaloupes will intoxicate you at every vendor that sells these melons. CHP had the best deal on the cantaloupes. Most were selling them for 1 for $2, and 2 for $5 and the sizes varied. The lady at this spot picked the perfect melons for me as I needed one for immediate consumption and the other two for the next few days. We had some for an afternoon snack and they were so juicy and delicious! John's Produce - Whoopie Pies for $0.75 each, Mini Peach Pie for $2.50 There are a few vendors at the market that carry baked goods by a lady names Ada. I wondered who Ada was and they explained that she comes by in the morning and delivers her goods to them, but does not sell her goods on her own at the market. Most of the goods were delivered shortly before we arrived as some of the plastic bags of the items, like the dinner rolls, were blown up from the steam. You could still feel the heat if you put your hands near it. They looked delicious! Be sure to take a look at each vendor that carries her stuff, because they all do not carry the same of her things! We got a variety of Whoopie Pies like Chocolate Chip, Chocolate Mint, Pumpkin and Chocolate and I just had to get the Peach Pie. Noah's Place - Large Apple Pie for $6.75 My SIL told me that the Amish make some great pies, so I decided to get one and went with Apple, a flavor, that the whole family would enjoy. There were also Blackberry, Blueberry and Cherry. Noah's Place carries goods from Kurtz Bakery, unlike the others who carry Ada's goods. My process at any market is do a walk through to see what each of the vendors offer, make a mental note of the things I want to buy and then buy everything at the end. I did good at this one! Came out with quite a few bags, purchasing from four vendors and probably spent about $20! I also recommend going during a weekday, if you don't mind missing the wine vendor, because my SIL says it gets pretty crowded on Saturdays.

The turnover is quick and I've never had to wait to park. People are usually in & out. Issues... the only herbs they sell is cilantro. I'm ok with that (mostly). But I really wish they had mint & basil. They are closed during winter. Makes sense but... Those are the longest 4 months for me.
