A trip around the world and a walk down memory lane…read more It's been decades since I stepped foot inside the Buford Highway Farmers Market, and being back felt like a beautiful reunion. The last time I walked these aisles, I was with my mama, Donna Theresa. So much has changed since then, yet the soul of this place remains as vibrant as ever. It feels more expansive than I remember. A true global treasure tucked right here in the city. I'm still obsessed with how they organize the aisles by country. In just one afternoon, I traveled from Korea to Eastern Europe to Central America, no passport required! I was officially "team sample" the moment they offered! Unlike the heavy, sugary profile of traditional American cakes, these were a masterclass in balance. I tried the Neapolitan, a stunning phyllo-layered creation that was light, buttery, and perfectly textured. But the Lemon Cream Cake? It stole the entire show. It looked picture-perfect on the shelf, and the taste was even better. It was so bright, airy, and just the right amount of decadence. Coming back here wasn't just a grocery trip; it was a win for my palate and my heart. Now that I'm back in the area, you can bet this is becoming a regular stop on my rotation.

Do yourself a favor and make sure you check the exp dates on EVERYTHING. This market routinely…read moresells old/expiring goods because there's too much sh*t in the store to keep up with inventory (see others' reviews). This is by far this market's biggest drawback. I purchased a pack of tofu along with some other items on March 11. I open the fridge a few days later on March 15, finally ready to prepare the tofu, just to see that the exp date on the pack was March 10. This picture was taken March 15 upon this discovery. I meant to update this review a while ago. I just can't spend money here anymore knowing that I'm liable to accidentally purchase old products. As customers, we should not have to be this vigilant at a grocery store... it's ridiculous.

If you are hoping this is a good addition to the Alpharetta's Farmer's Market, I'm sad to say it's…read morenot. There is a lot of prepared foods, face painting, a nearby doggie park and other social-type amenities, but there were only two stalls carrying fresh fruit or veg that I saw. They send out an email each week touting the market and the one the day or so before had promised blueberries galore and other good stuff, so I was looking forward to it. What a let down! I love farmers markets and was so disappointed I just looked at Philip and said, "forget this, let's go to the Alpharetta market" (well, I didn't say *exactly* that, but close) and left without purchasing anything at all. We travelled straight to the Alpharetta market and bought our usual fruits, veg, herbs and fresh breads. If you want to take the kiddies (or doggies) to the park, it's fine. If you're looking to buy food to, like, you know, COOK, then give this one a miss and go straight to the Alpharetta farmers market. I gave it a 2 because the face painting booth looked like it was entertaining for the kids.

It is hard to find anyone that sells the duck eggs and this vendor The Duckery of Ducktown has REAL free range eggs. The eggs are light and have a wonderful flavor!

From various pickles to so many jams and fresh fruit to chicken salad to sausage to breads and so many other products. They also have an extension to the market where they have food and dessert which I didn't indulge in but wish I had from all the raving reviews of their ice cream. The experience itself was fun but the activities were lacking a bit. The pumpkin farm didn't have any actual attached pumpkins to the vines which was sad but still a nice experience. Also, the flower picking farm was extra $ and the flowers were beautiful.

It is not too far from Atlanta, being in Cumming, GA. There is parking there and I believe it was free but I am not 100% sure. I know we didn't pay very much to get the flowers. The parking was either free or maybe included with the price for the flowers. ***ATMOSPHERE*** There are plenty of rows. We came here for the photos and picked flowers as well. It definitely was a cute and fun summer activity! ***CONCLUSION*** Definitely on my list to go back to soon :)

Sunflower bloom is only a week or two in July/August so keep an eye out on the Facebook page for…read moreAnderson Sunflower Farm to get the exact timing of when the farm will be opened. Also, I would advise on being prepared to come here. First, it's really hot/humid. To beat the crowd, come super early so that you're not having to deal with waiting in the heat to take pictures at the photo ops such as in front of the tractors and such. Being my first time, I forfeited when I saw the lines and felt drops of sweat dripping down my forehead. Second, be aware of bees. Sure, field full of sunflowers is enchanting, but to my surprise, humans are not the only ones that think this way. For every flower, there seemed to have been at least one bee, possibly honey bees, but who knows. So, if you're allergic to bees, I would take note of this. Third, I would highly advise on purchasing at max, half of dozen sunflowers. The nice staff, dumfounded at first, allowed me to get a refund on the other half dozen that I did not pick out. You can either go out and cut your own or grab from the buckets that they have already cut but even these have bees on them that I only managed to gather 6, out of fear. Once you pick them out, they'll wrap the stems with wet paper towel and bouquet bag, but it doesn't last too long in the heat. Definitely bring extra bags to store the sunflowers if you plan on taking it home as the pollens are crazy and will get all over your car that you would need a car wash. Hope these help and last step is to enjoy and get awesome pics!

I went in thinking it would be a quick stop, but it turned into a full-on experience. After three hours, we still hadn't made it halfway through. My only real complaint is that I wish it stayed open longer into the day. Every vendor we met was friendly, engaging, and more than generous with samples. Prices were very reasonable, and everything--from the produce to the handmade goods--was beautifully presented. What stood out most was how clean the entire market was. Nearly every vendor went the extra mile to cover their food, protect it from insects, and wipe down surfaces as they went. It showed how much pride each of them takes in their craft. A few standout vendors deserve a special mention. 4 Sons Seafood offered incredibly fresh fish and shrimp, the kind of quality you'd expect to find near the coast. Pearson Farm had juicy Georgia peaches and crisp pecans that perfectly captured local flavor. Maple Milk Farm served up rich, creamy dairy products that tasted straight from the pasture. On the Rocks Gourmet Jams featured small-batch preserves in creative flavor combinations that were both sweet and savory. And Bobbie Ruth's Southern Style Bakery filled the air with the smell of fresh-baked bread, cookies, and pies that reminded me of a true Southern kitchen. Other vendors also added to the experience, including Pine Street Market, Cultured, Sprucewood Cashmere Farm, Diamond P Cattle Co., Taylor Made BBQ Sauce, Bee Wild Honey, Swayback Farms, Java Lords Coffee, Emily G's Jams, and The Cheese Shop at Main Street. Each one brought something special to the table--literally and figuratively. Another pleasant surprise was the number of local shops surrounding the market that were open during the event. We stopped in several and found unique gifts, clothing, and art pieces, which made the outing even more enjoyable. Between the market vendors and the local stores, the entire downtown felt alive and welcoming. We will absolutely be back again and are already looking forward to our next visit. The Alpharetta Farmers Market is a shining example of community done right--friendly people, clean surroundings, quality products, and genuine Southern hospitality at its best.

The "antiques" really aren't. At least most things didn't strike me as old OR collectible. The grocery section includes jams, chow chow, honey, salsa, chutney ... you get the gist. We bought a green tomato relish that looks promising. There's also produce; I suspect there will be more in the spring. The woman manning the register is nice and helpful. Worth a quick stop if you're driving by.
