We especially love Harry's Berries and Ken's Farm Goods, but honestly there are so many great booths that it is hard to go wrong. The produce is consistently fresh, seasonal, and flavorful, and the vendors are friendly and knowledgeable. It is the kind of market where you end up discovering new favorites every time you visit. Parking does get crowded pretty quickly, so arriving early definitely helps. That said, the attached park more than makes up for it. It is beautiful, spacious, and perfect for walking around, relaxing, or enjoying your market finds afterward. Overall, this farmers market is a gem and a must visit if you are in the area. We keep coming back and it never disappoints.

I remember, vaguely in detail, but clearly in broadness, that I saw an episode of Reading Rainbow…read more In this episode the main character goes to a swap meet and is inspired by a book to view a trip to the swap meet as an opportunity to discover treasure. I did not go with a child's optimism to the Roadium, but I did hope to find oddities to engage my mind, trinkets to admire and imagine about, and in general find something that would be right for me at a bargain price. And the Roadium on a Sunday, provided me the opportunity to find all the previously mentioned items and things, plus it also help me get steps in, in a slow pace, while I absorbed the sun's Vitamin D. I am surprised to say this, like super surprised, but the item that most caught- really arrested- my attention was a picture that centered the country's current sitting president: Trump. In the picture, Trump has his head down, eyes closed, hands and fingers interlocked, and he seems to have a face of meditation, maybe receiving peace and/or knowledge. And behind stand a variety of historical and political powerhouses of the past, like Nixon, Reagan, Washington, Lincoln, and others that I could not recognize to name with confidence. However, all had their eyes closed, and had an aura of tranquility that also carried palpable notes of worry. What struck me the most is that the group, in tense serenity, included men and women of color. It is important to note that I clipped the picture, to give the reader or viewer the opportunity to collect their own thoughts and land their own interpretation. That got heavy. I also clipped a picture of quinceneras. One was dressed in Cinderella blue with a carriage, horse, and carriage handers were in the background, I thought it was A.I. generated but perhaps some people do have quinces like that, in fact I know they do, I used to wacth my Super Sweet Sixteen on MTV. Getting inside the Roadium is hard on a Sunday. But apparently worst on others day because the Roadium has different vendors on different days and each attracts a different type of crowd. For instance, on the firstMonday of the month vendors from the Rose Bowl Flea Market come. Please know that I am recycling information that was provided to me by one of the vendors. Research, please to verify accuracy. However, she also explained that on Mondays, when the Vintage Vendors come, parking becomes nearly imposible to find, even on the street. On this day, it cost 5 dollars, the cashiers only accept cash, The place has trinkets, food, and finds, seriously, it is a cool walk to see, touch, and get lost, if that is something one can do- shop vendors with nothing you want to buy, but still find meaning in the seeing and touching. I had peanuts on this day, but they were special because they were freshly toasted. Like I got a few to try (both extra toasted and not so toasted) and they were still warmed from the machine that toasted them. The touch of a warm shell was enough for me to be impressed but the freshness was key. This vendor explains that sometimes the peanuts in the store are 10 days old, after they were first roasted. Again do research. I saw micro Mexican candy stores with some of the candy that really communicates non-tourist streets of Oaxaca. I also bought three shirts. One was 8, two other ones were three dollars, and I feel like they were honest finds. I took a video of a barbie like doll, not barbie, using a Segway, which I thought was a wink to the modern that made sense yet never seen. I also saw a Spiderman Halloween shirt. And I thought how weird. It was him siting Spidey like, and he was pumpkin orange with bats behind him. It was juvenile because it was Disney product from theri Halloween bash time. So this place does have what was one precious yet never bought. I can see how someone might get something today to use at another day, or simply, be creative and DIY stuff from the stuff they found here.

The rest of the swap meet was Bath and body items which was very well organized and they had a massive amounts and quite a bit of children's items and clothes some clothes not the best quality but just really good selection and kids grow out of things so fast they had some like little boutique booths, which the quality didn't seem great, but the prices were higher than I definitely expected, but the rest of the Swapmeet was like a big chunk sale plastic bags on the ground or on tables with just piles of stuff thrown all over them or random tchotchkes thrown on the ground and you had to pick through everything. It is big but unfortunately it was definitely not vintage days. We went on the day that they was designated for vintage days specifically because we weren't really looking for just junk or stuff . We won't be back anytime soon . We got an ice cream cone and one scoop was like eight dollars. They do have some fruit and vegetables, but they were pretty ripe and some of the items canned goods look like things they got left over from maybe a food bank or items they took from a food bank that they didn't use just a lot of stuff that seemed like it had been collected from free stuff left over from a yard sale or I don't even know it was not what I expected. It was my first time I've been wanting to go for years. My sister-in-law hadn't been since she was younger, and my husband hadn't been since he was younger. He said he remembered his mom taking him all the time.

There is one bakery, one produce vendor, one honey guy, one jewelry vendor - you get the idea.

There's a variety of food offerings from Asian, Mediterranean, Mexican, Pupusas, etc. and theres tables and chairs at the very end of the market that usually has musicians playing while you enjoy your eats. This is a once a month visit for me as it's essentially the same thing every week BUT make sure you visit around holidays, especially Halloween and Christmas for additional vendors and entertainment.

It was empty and less people. There's a pay parking meter, and the minimum is $2 for just 30 minutes so right from the start, it felt a bit off. Once I parked, I walked through, and the market itself was really tiny: probably about 20 to 30 vendors in total. You can walk the whole thing in less than five minutes, and the variety was really limited. For example, there was only one vendor selling berries, and the food options were scarce and just didn't look appetizing. The prices were high for what little you got. I probably won't be coming back, maybe I just missed something, but it didn't live up to the hype. On the bright side, there was live music, which was really nice, and the neighborhood felt safe with police presence, plus they did have restrooms available. But overall, it just didn't have that special charm I was hoping for.

While I didn't have much luck finding organic produce, I discovered some incredible vendors that made the trip worthwhile. La Lemonade was outstanding! My nieces and I each ordered mixed lemonades, and my guava and mango combination was absolutely delicious. It was refreshing, flavorful, and one of the highlights of our visit. We also stopped at Hook Line for fresh-caught salmon. The owner was friendly, welcoming, and happy to share samples of his delicious spread along with cooking tips and recipe ideas. Excellent customer service and beautiful seafood. The chipotle beef tamale, chipotle chicken tamale, and the twisted potato were all delicious and definitely worth trying. The true star of the market, though, was Chaupain Bakery. Everything looked incredible, and it was difficult to narrow down our choices. We ended up with a guava cheese Danish, sticky bun, carrot cake, and cinnamon swirl. Every pastry was exceptional, and the owner's kindness and genuine hospitality made the experience even more memorable. I'd happily return just for the bakery. My only suggestion would be for Vicente Family Farms to ensure ALL customers are greeted and treated with the same level of courtesy, attention, and respect. I will be skipping that stand. Overall, although I didn't find the organic fruits and vegetables I was hoping for, the amazing food, pastries, seafood, and welcoming vendors far outweighed that disappointment. We had a wonderful afternoon, and there are several businesses here that I'll definitely return to support.
