So off the QEW we went. The TH is new I think. Looks it anyway. So does the parking lot etc. next to the TH is this farm stand. Presumably only seasonal. They had great looking fruits and a few veges. The qualities were too large for us since we can't bring them back over the border easily. Had the choices been smaller we would have picked up some apples.

Such good, fresh, quality fruits at a reasonable price. Definitely my favourite fruit stand.read more

It's not only fruits and vegetables, they make amazing "vegan" meals that you can have delivered or just pick up. They also have many Cold-Pressed Juices they make themselves, all of them filled with vegetables yet taste like fruit. They also have juice "detoxes" where they make you a bunch of juice in advance so you can drink it during the week, in the convenience of your own home or at work. I must say, everything I've eaten or drank there has not only tasted great but also made me feel healthier, including knowing I'm making a choice to put my health first in a not expensive way. It's hard for a mother of 2 boys to take care of "herself" and eat properly, Farmer Jack's made it super easy. It's almost like Jenny Craig but better because they deliver! If you are looking to make healthier choices, eat more local foods, try a juice detox, or just want to eat something really yummy, I 100% recommend Farmer Jack's! Low prices, great service and a healthier "you", how can you top that? Try it! I have no doubt you'll love it.

Back at one time, you had so many choices it was shoulder to shoulder traffic. The prices no longer show any value to cause you to come here. Honestly you can shop at Price rite and Walmart, and see that their vegetables and fruit are cheaper.

This place is great for some things, not so great for others…read more The best part of this market are the lfower sellers in the spring.summer. I go here for all my annuals, and all my herbs that I grow. I used to buy veggie plants, too, but now I just focus on flowers and herbs. Their selection is wonderful, and they are always fully-stocked. They have tons of plants, and several different vendors. Good news is, the prices are basically the same so there's no need to shop around- but some vendors focus more on one thing than others. There's the herb and vegetable plant seller, and the one that focuses more on flowers. Then the one in the back sells everything- but they each have their own unique items. I try to purchase form everyone to spread the wealth. There is a vendor who has a "farmers market" but it's not a real farmers market. They are selling food that you get at supermarkets- produce form California, Mexico, et. They are NOT selling local farm stand items, so if you want a farmers market experience where you support your local farmers- DO NOT buy form this one. This is my really big negative gripe about this place. The parking lot is also atrocious!! there are more potholes, crumbling asphalt, and dips than there is smooth pavement! I have to drive 5mps through the whole place! They could use a new parking lot - it's really bad. There's also a flea market of sorts in the far back that is there sometimes, not other items- I went to look once, but it seemed like a lot of junk, and nothing I was interested in. I will say this place is an odd mix of things, but the flower vendors for my garden are irreplaceable, an I will always com here to stock my garden every year!
