The vibe at Chesapeake Farmers Market is kind and caring. Vendors are not pushy, they are warm and…read morepolite. I was surprised at the variety of vendors - I was able to find what I wanted (tomatoes and honey) quickly, with plenty of time left for browsing. Several, maybe three, food trucks were on site - judging by the lines, they offered pretty tasty nibbles. Finally- don't expect a flea market - this market is about homespun products and freshly picked vegetables.

First time here and it was nice. Definitely smaller than the Norfolk east beach one but the vendors…read moreare nice and you can take your kiddos to the park afterwards. Bought corn and cookies and veggies.

The event included food trucks and a variety of vendors. My friend and I grabbed some BBQ from S&J Catering and it was delicious. We also grabbed donuts from Klassic Donuts and Glazed & Infuzed as well, which were very tasty. As we walked through the different shops, I absolutely loved all the fresh local, produce that was available. One of the shops offered a variety of jarred items and sauces so I purchased Crab Salsa and Spicy Pickled Okra. Both were very good and I definitely need to go back and get more! I absolute love supporting local businesses and I will definitely be returning very soon! Everyone was very nice and I highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

There's a seafood market, a butcher shop, a dessert shop, ice cream shop, and a restaurant. The prices are pretty reasonable and the people who work there are pretty friendly. There's plenty of parking. They have carnivals, food trucks, and different events. Check their FB page or website for dates of special events. It's a fun place to go and kill time when you just need something to do. I enjoyed my visit!! Check them out!!

My husbae picked up some items and check out was a breeze. I loved the variety and ease of shopping here unlike the chain stores. If you're in the area check them out. I understand this store has been around for decades. Have fun and enjoy life :)

I complained but they didn't take the wine back or give me my money back. one last note, the mixed drinks they do have ate weak and not good. overall the place is overpriced and underwhelming

I didn't mean to visit this Farmers Market, but I am so glad I did! I happened to be in the area…read morefor a meeting and took some time to check out the market! This is a seasonal market that runs from 10am-2pm every Thursday; mid-May through mid-September. They had a great variety of vendors. The food vendor that caught my eye had lobster rolls. There were two or three stands for fresh produce. They also had a few craft vendors and vendors selling homemades like soaps and dog treats. Only 1 MLM company from what I noticed. They also had a few local organizations. I spent most of my time talking to the local 4H Office representatives. As a former 4-Her this was a really nice surprise! This is a great way to spend a Thursday afternoon in Newport News, plus parking is free! You can also enjoy the shops and restaurants throughout City Center! The LOVE NN sign is just around the corner. You can get a new profile pic to proudly show your love for Newport News and it's hidden treasures... like this market!

The selection here is immense with a large variety of jarred goods, drinks, dairy products and even meats. I ended up buying a jar of pickled watermelon rinds and sweet potato butter. Both were delicious selections that I haven't really seen anywhere else. The cashier was really nice and bagged my items for me. They only accept Cash or Checks, not CC. This prevented me from grabbing more, so I'd definitely recommend coming prepared with cash so you can get everything you'd like. The prices are fair and cheaper than what you'd find in the grocery store, so it's a decent trade-off for the cash-only model!

I found out they were going to be here so I planned to visit the Farmers Market. Locating the Farmers Market was not too hard. The area it is located in is so cute. Parking is hard. You have to park on the street which is tight! There is a small section of parking lot opened at the church, but, that fills up fast. Parking on the street is better than the lot. Be prepared to walk to and from your car. They had about 20-30 different places. You can get fresh produce, knifes sharpened, bath products... and DOUGHNUTS! It's a nice small farmers market.

As far as farmers markets go, this one is small but carries an abundance of character…read more Not all vendors attend every market, but there is a great variety. Bodacious bakehouse have you covered for your freshly baked artisan bread needs, Cowboy Syd's got your neo-southern gourmet goodies (those of you who are Norfolk locals will know about Chef Meers and his famous restaurant career), meanwhile Cullipher Farm brings you locally grown fruits and veggies from Pungo Ridge. Three ships coffee roll up in their awesome coffee machine (don't know what I mean? You should be here then!) and Doughminion Donuts brings the treats for your sugary needs, soon to close their doors in Selden Market, but they'll be here right through til September. Then there's Fayton Farms artisan cheeses offering up some finely crafted small batch cheese from Mechanicsville but locally sourced milk, and Hampton Roads Winery coming through with the vino offering a taste of their wines for $1, and my personal favorite The Flower Lady, Robin Lindsey from Portsmouth along with her heeler pup Reno - bringing fresh free range chicken and duck eggs along with locally grown flowers. It's small, but there are plenty more vendors I've not named that should be checked out. The later in the day you get there the less there is on offer to buy, but it's definitely one to check out, just make sure you bring some dollars with you, it's not the cheapest - but all in the name of supporting small businesses right!? Love your locals!!

They have a beautiful sunflower patch that you can pick your own, 2 for $5 or if you spend $25 they were free. We took some time to see their farm animals. They were well taken care of and so cute!

I knew…read morethis season I had to go, so I grabbed my friend and her two kids and we decided to give Hickory Ridge Farm a try! What a gem. They have buckets for you to grab, or you can bring your own. You get charged per pound that you pick and pay when you're done! They had so many strawberries ready to pick, I had so much fun doing this with my friends kids! I was already planning on making a homemade strawberry shortcake when I got home. They have a cute little coffee truck which I obviously had to stop by. If you have a strawberry latte during strawberry season - you can count on me to grab one! It was so good, and not too sweet or tart from the strawberry! I also had to grab their strawberry donuts from the farm stand. Which, needless to say ... they did not make it home with me. We scarfed those down! Incredible. I loved the "petting zoo" area. You can feed the goats, sit in the rabbit pen and give them some pets, and play with the piglets! Such a cute add on to this experience; and the petting zoo was no charge! They also have a ton of toys and bounce houses for the kiddos. If you're looking for a fun strawberry picking experience, give them a try!

Offerings include art, produce, seafood, locally made food and packaged items (jam, popcorn, cheese), bread/pastries, food trucks, etc. Many of the vendors are also staples at other VA Beach farmers markets. -- TLC & Amenities -- The church graciously offers its parking lot as space for parking and the market, volunteers to direct traffic and help with setup/cleanup, its picnic table filled pavilion for KGFM guests to eat at, the restroom in its fellowship hall, and the playground out back of the church. All of these small courtesies add up to a wonderful family-friendly environment and event. -- Hours -- KGFM runs on the 1st & 3rd Thursday of each month from May through September from 4-7pm. -- Takeaways -- Local produce, local artists, great prices on seafood, and more offered in a well-spaced outdoor market allows for social distancing. With the inclusion of food trucks you can make a family dinner out of your shopping trip. Food truck prices are on par with others, which doesn't make for the most affordable dinner, but the offerings are excellent. KGFM is great option for families who want to frequently support local vendors!
