I especially loved their freshly made peanut butter, which comes in several flavors like honey, cinnamon, and chocolate, all at very reasonable prices. The bakery section was excellent as well, and they offered a wide variety of specialty teas that would make great gifts. I also appreciated that they sell chicken hearts and other less common cuts of meat at affordable prices! The market was clean and lively on the weekend. The cashier was friendly and nice. I tried their chicken pie and beef pie, but they were a little too salty for my taste. Overall, I would happily come back for the fresh peanut butter and meat!

Usually all you need to do is call a few days prior to the market day & they will bring you a specific item. I usually request chicken backs. There is usually an artesian baker, cheese, & several local farms selling numerous in-season vegetables & flowers. At times, a knife/tool sharpening vendor, tea vendor, and several other types of vendors are here. It's close to me. The variety of items for sale & quality is great. I try not to miss a single week.

It was fun to see some of the products that Lancaster is known for! I had to get the special red soda, and a Whoopie pie. Both delicious! This spot has all the basics you could want. Ingredients, as well as a lot of premade options you could heat up or bake at home. It is on the pricier end being a meat market, but still fun to look around and get a few items!

There are benches for resting upon the foyer entrance. My party of three walked to browse the various merchants/ vendors and foods. My party of three visited this indoor food market where there were many options of pies, nuts, candy, pastries, baked goods, bread, pretzels, Amish quilts, but disappointedly I did not see any Amish wicker storage baskets. My desiderium was to purchase one large storage wicker basket with inner cloth lining, but to no avail as I am characteristically organized in both my living and workplace space environment. Or, purchase one large raffia storage box with lid. Surprising Bird-in-Hand Farmers Market is open and operational on July 4th, 2026 holiday. Customer service is average. I did receive a sales receipt printed from a very dated cash register. There is a large souvenir gift shop in the lower level via schlepping one flight of stairs. It is not ADA accessible. There is no stair climber available either. Ergo, for the mobility challenged take caution and there is very low headroom in the stairwell. My party of three has always patronized to support local souvenir gift shops as tourists - past and present. Personally, I believe in patronizing brick and mortar local souvenir gift shops drives the local economic tourism. We are non-Pennsylvanians. The souvenir T-shirts are hugely extortionate priced at $19.99. This gift shop reminisce nostalgia of Hallmark stores for mugs, decorative pens, bookmarks, post cards, magnets, pins, printed recipe books, small journals, wall calendar year 2027, et al. The costume jewelry was also hugely extortionate priced $19.99. I freely walked the aisles to browse and circled back. I purchased one post card of Amish horse buggy with a farm field $0.50, one Pennsylvania shape magnet $1.99, and one lighthouse shape coaster $2.99. I have a small collection of post cards from travels. I actually needed a coaster for my workplace desk as I am currently using a makeshift coaster of my own arts and craft creation. I love lighthouses for the long history, significance, contribution to navy and maritime industry, including aesthetic of nature scenic local landscape emitting a sense of peace.

My party of…read morethree visited Cherry Hill Orchards Outlet farmer's market as fresh fruit is a staple in our livelihood style. Fruit is consumed post-dinner and after lunch. We came here without any farmers market food vouchers. I ponder with hope and wonder if Cherry Hill offers apple picking, pumpkin U-Pick or strawberry picking like NYS Hudson Valley. There are no photo stand-in, face-in-hole board, or peep board for families to participate making memories. Customer service is average. I did obtain my sales receipt. At the cash wrap counter Cherry Hill Orchards carries a "Help to Eliminate Spoilage" card to maintain fruit freshness. Blueberries, one pint $4.99 Fresh and plump to sustain for 1.5 day with refrigeration. Chocolate cherry cordials $0.75 each X 2 = $1.50 One milk chocolate and one dark chocolate which were average. I immediately engulfed these chocolates upon entering the car. Maple syrup, 8 oz. jug $10.99 Maple syrup price has risen exorbitant outrageously high in the past decade that $10.99 has almost become the standard lowest price. I have seen sales of $7.99 for 12 oz. glass bottles - once in a blue moon. I have a predilection for maple syrup specifically Canadian maple syrup. Yum! I did not know that Lancaster, PA offers maple sugaring season. Amish Country in Pennsylvania has certainly more presence and impact for farming agricultural lifestyle in Lancaster, PA. Lancaster, PA once served as the capital of Pennsylvania from 1799 to 1812. Secretly, as my desideratum I wanted the 12 oz. maple syrup jug size, but I do not have the space in my duffle travel bag for the long-haul car ride return to NYC!

If you only visit Lancaster for a few days this is one of the places you have to go. My favorite stands: 1) S. Clyde Weaver has insane specialty sandwiches and is one of my favorite delis. I typically get a large roast beef sandwich with mayo, lettuce, tomato, and the sweet bell peppers. The peppers are my favorite and I always ask for as many as they are legally allowed to give me. Caution: the large subs are ginormous so I usually eat half then save the rest for later. The bread holds up pretty well and doesn't get super soggy, but if you plan to eat it the next day, I would forgo the tomato which can get a bit slippery. 2) Kom Essa features the best breakfast sandwich around. It's greasy, but if that's something you don't mind, this is a must try. 2) Mean Cup is for anything coffee/caffeine related. This might be the best coffee in Lancaster. I practically give all my money to their storefront shop on Harrisburg Pike. 3) Shady Maple is the perfect stop for sweet treats: donuts, whoopie pies, etc. They used to have the best maple bacon long johns (hear me out) but I haven't seen them there for a while. 4) The Candy Stand is nostalgia central for me. Pretty much any type of candy you can think of, you can find there. This was a staple for me when I was younger. 5) Long's Horseradish features the best horseradish you can buy in a gagillion different flavors and variations.
