Set up on Saturday and Wednesday mornings beginning at 9:00 (until 1:00 pm) on First and Jackson…read moreStreets in downtown Corvallis right across from the Willamette River waterfront park, we delayed departure from Corvallis after a multi day visit so we could walk up the couple of blocks from our hotel and shop on a beautiful October Wednesday morning. Not as many farmers and producers present on a Wednesday but this is still a great market even with fewer participants. We filled up our cooler with fresh produce including organic salad greens, kira squash, romano beans, multiple kinds of grapes, kumquats (no kidding...the farmer grows these in a hoop house with other citrus), eggplant, and multiple kinds of pears, apples and plums. We also had a chance to talk to quince farmers who make quince paste, a fav of ours with Fall and Spanish cheese selections, and buy a couple of jars to tuck away. And bread selections from Wild Yeast including small rounds of sourdough whole wheat, hazelnut and cinnamon raisin batard all of which were available in whole loaf and smaller half loaf sizes. Wild Yeast mini rye pastry galette with local mixed apples as filling was the perfect breakfast treat and the mini Marguerite fougasse and cranberry Swiss cheese roll were dinner that night at our destination. If we lived in the Corvallis area we would be regular shoppers here and be able to buy the things like a marvelous assortment of microgreens, fresh made cheeses, pollinator plants and all sorts of produce that we didn't have room to bring home. ACCESSIBILITY: Street surfacing which is firm and stable works for shoppers of all abilities and since I was using a wheelchair on this trip I particularly appreciated that. Although the ADA is 33 years old and requires outdoor markets to be on surfaces that allow everyone equal access you would be astounded how many still set up on deep gravel lots or deep grass, neither of which allow disabled shoppers access. Good for the Corvallis organizers for getting this right!

There's flowers, vegetables, pastries to snack on while walking around, a lot of starter plants to get your own garden going, and most all the vendors are nice and extremely knowledgeable. They're always willing to give gardening advice. The honey stand doesn't have the greatest customer service but a lot of different flavors and good prices for honey. A few stands sell farm fresh eggs (THE best eggs), but when summer rolls around everyone wants eggs so they sell out fast, be sure to get there early. There are stands for kids, from local non-profits, many times there's live music, and it's walking distance to great local shopping, restaurants, and activities in downtown Albany, which means there is plenty of parking. Earth Day at farmers market is particularly fun. Last summer they didn't allow dogs, which makes me sad, but I've been seeing more dogs here and there. As a community that is not always the most engaged, this market is a great jumping off point and has a lot of potential to increase community engagement. If we all frequent the local farmers market it will get bigger, offer more products, activities, and local resources, and get community members from all neighborhoods connected.

If you are looking for a place to stretch your legs or let your kids / pets let out some energy, this is not the place. There are about 25 "no dogs" signs lol, and they acted strange about us even wanting to walk around the parking lot (traveling with a kid, we thought ice cream and a little bit of running around would be good). They even have a sign that you can't throw away your trash lol. Still, a cute shop if you just want to stop and go!

This was my second visit to Grandpa's Fresh Market, it's a bit of a drive out of the way for me,…read morebut I love supporting local farms and markets. If the experience was different, I would be more than happy to go out of my way. On my last visit, I stopped in for strawberries and raspberries. I have no issues with the produce I purchased. Unfortunately, I probably won't return due to my experience as a shopper. The name Grandpa's Fresh Market gives you a sense of warmth and a welcoming atmosphere. I didn't get that feeling on either of my visits. It was not busy at all when I arrived. There were 3 people around the cash register and I can hear them happily greeting the other shopper that arrived around the same time I did. They encouraged the other person to peruse the side with the home goods. However, I did not get any welcoming words and even at the register, the communication was minimal. - Cash or credit? Do you need a bag? - I am the person that gets invited to bible study by strangers at Barnes & Nobles. I do not have RBF. Although nothing negative was said to me, the experience just left me feeling uncomfortable. I would rather take my business somewhere were all individuals are welcomed and treated as such.

La Mancha Ranch & Orchard is located down in the Willamette Valley a bit south and west of Corvallis. Quality fruit and nuts. Certainly worth stopping by their stand the next time you're at the PSU market.

I would put the local Lane County Saturday Farmers Market against any of them for local in-season fruit, produce, eggs, meats, and baked goods and many other local products. It runs 11 months of the year. I can be found there at opening every Saturday unless we are out of town. Everything sold fresh is local and in season. Prepared food is made from local ingredients, mostly organic. On any given Saturday there are four or six bakeries with very fresh baked goods available with some of the best bread, croissants equal to Paris bakeries, many, many sweet and savory pastries. Many rural farm stands are represented with their complete in-season produce, fruit and vegetables. There are always three or four booths selling foraged mushrooms in season with a great variety of cultivated ones as well. Several vendors raise and sell the best eggs I have ever eaten. If you beat me there, you might get some double yoked ones, but they sell out fast. Meat for the freezer, fresh fish and canned fish, several hot food venders and if you can manage tastes in the morning several local pot distilleries are showing up these days. Everyone is pleasant and helpful and the culture is one of cooperation and helping other venders and customers so that all are successful. Come and check it out. The new pavement makes it easy to move around, stay dry. There are tables for you to eat your hot food. Don't forget to take some flowers home for the vase from the four or five vendors who are there regularly. The large open building houses about a third of the vendors with large open doors, the rest bring their own tents and the outdoor arrangement is easy to change for the day. You come too, but save a little bit for me!
