    This newly opened locally women owned and operated market is a breath of fresh air to the area…read more Located near the intersection of Co Rd 12 and Hwy 59 is The Farmhouse Market with a clean, near, organized and pleasant shopping experience throughout. Upon entering there's friendly greetings with offers to help find anything you're looking for, with a gift shop vibe. There's all sorts of stuff here from local artisan clocks to la arge selection of hard to find and retro sodas, beauty products, cards and more. But wait there's more! In the rear, and even bigger space with a large selection of honey and related products, suaces, jellies, butter, milk, eggs, frozen goods of breads, pies, including shrimp, and so much more. But of course there's produce that will obviously vary by season. Today the choices included a variety of tomatoes and onions, fresh garlic, peppers, and fruits. Bottom line: Fresh locally sourced produce and vegetables, gifts, and local products in a lovely environment with friendly, helpful staff. Highly recommended!!! https://www.facebook.com/thefarmhousemarketal/

    This is NOT a food market. If that's what you want ,look elsewhere. Saddest display of a few…read moreveggies that I've ever seen. Lots of candles, canned food, hot sauce, old lady clothing and some "Amish" bakery items. Might have been a bit off season, but I don't see where they'd bring in more veggies. Should change name, "Farmers Market" is deceiving .

Crowds are scarce & there's no trouble with finding parking. Having a size small in stature compared to traditional farmers markets. This farmers market offers a bountiful variety of fruits & vegetables. We sometimes pass by to those we are familiar with like corn, tomatoes, peppers & onion. Unlike traditional farmers markets  running seasonally or weekends only, this one is open daily.   I am familiar with traditional farmers markets held on weekends & open seasonally with crowds & challenges of parking. Seeing a farmers market on a rural roadside void of this is unique to me. What I took notice of is their outdoor setup arranged like grocery stores produce section.  Don't let the small exterior fool you. There's indoor space for other produce & products. It was unfortunate it wasn't set up an open the day I visited. What I imagine when days are more active is that it's bustling with customers & vendors setting up shop selling homemade jam jellies, sorghum & other consumable goods. Nobody's on site taking cash so there's a labeled dropbox for cash & I would suggest stopping by an ATM before arriving here. By chance I didn't have much cash on hand & had to forgo some purchases & that's ok because I will revisit this farmers market again & bring some friends who share my enjoyment of fresh fruits & vegetables.  Be sure to like on FB & tell a friend https://www.facebook.com/bengtsonsfarmersmarket/

It's cooling in the fridge uncut.), the cost of 18 strawberries - twelve so moldy that they were black and collapsing inward- 7 peaches (two with worms, one with flesh that separated at a slight touch; a plastic bear of allegedly local honey and a smallish watermelon totalled $46.44. If everything had been Farmstand Legendary Good, the price wouldn't have been so painful. She also assured me the honey was from Baldwin County. Nope. The small print on the label reads Grand Bay. And as a local, I know that's across the Bay in Mobile County. Shame on you for selling such dreck. I knew something might be wrong when she ungently dumped the peaches and berries into plastic grocery bags to recycle the green paperboard containers for the umpteenth time. Lesson for the Day: Don't confuse a new (and only one-time) customer with a just- passing- through Holiday Beach Tourist.

    The Covington Farmer's Market is the place to go if you want farm fresh produce, meats, seafood,…read moreand craft food items. Everyone knows that the fresher your food is, the better it tastes. Not only do you get extremely fresh items, you're able to meet the farmer who raised the animals and grew the vegetables you're buying. In my opinion, this is the best farmers market within driving distance of New Orleans. Here are the reasons why: Proximity to farms - Many people may not know this, but the Northshore is home to many different types of farms. Because Covington is close to the farm, you will get the freshest possible items. Variety - Whether you eat meat, are a vegetarian, or even a pescetarian, there will be something for you at this market. I particularly like the farm fresh meats. On my last visit I spoke with a cattle farmer who was selling his wares. His offer of a processed half or full cow seemed highly desirable, but I had nowhere to store that much meat. I did buy some of his ground beef which was better than anything I have sampled before, including from fancy stores. There are also numerous vendors selling products they made locally. As Jennifer B. mentioned, the Italian cookie stand is a must visit. Besides amazing products, the guys who run the stand are very friendly and entertaining characters. If you have kids make sure you pick up one of their cookies in the shape of popular cartoon characters. Besides all the food, there are also several plant vendors each week. I don't know much about plants, but they had quite the variety. I am a big fan of this market, and think you will be too.
