**Review for their pick your own strawberry**…read more The price for 2018 is $6/kg, which I remembered it was $5/kg when I last went here for the 2016 strawberry season. They have a pretty large strawberry field for customers to pick from. You can either bring your own container to buy a basket from them, and they will weight your strawberries at the end to determine the cost. There is no time limit of how long you stay in the field to pick, and they have free parking on site. It appears that this year the yield was lower than usual, as the strawberries were mostly smaller than the ones I picked back in 2016. However, they still taste really good despite the smaller size. The strawberries go back fairly quickly, so you should eat them within a day or two after picking, or store them in the freezer to make smoothies. They also have other produce available for picking, which I think corn is coming up later in July. You can go on their website to see what's available and the prices. They also have a market on the other side of the street for customers to buy fresh produce from, much like a farmers market

A recent bus day trip included a stop at this market and it was a delightful little place. Lots of…read morepreserves, fresh baked goods, produce and even some frozen options. There is also gelato and ice cream offerings. I got myself a strawberry sundae that hit the spot. I also picked up some ambrosia apples, an unique maple chipotle pepper seasoning, red pepper jelly, strawberry cream honey (!!) and a corn dip. The last thing I hesitated on until a customer said it was amazing. Sold! I bought a frozen one to survive a bit longer and I haven't tried it yet, but considering the enjoyment of everything else, I trust it will be good. My sister got some fresh corn on the cob and her whole family wished she brought home more. So if you're in the area, do yourself a favour and see what Herrie's has to offer.

My parents and I visited the Farmer's Market on a Saturday over the summer a couple of years back…read more It was pretty busy and packed when we got there mid morning. Make sure to bring water, sunscreen and hat or umbrella if you are visiting some time during the summer. I would bring some cash too though some of the vendors do take both cash and card. My parents got some some fruit and this homemade garlic dip/spread. I got a replica Dumbledore wand and a parasol type umbrella. The dip was pretty good. We had a deep-fried onion. It was alright. There were a lot of produce, home/handmade stuff, typical mass produced replicas/trickets and fast food. Prices for produce and the home/handmade stuff seem pretty affordable and reasonable. The mass produced replicas/trickets were over priced. Also, the mass produced stuff can be found online and other large events and gatherings, too.

Grampa's Pretzels inside Peddler's Village is an absolute must-try when you're at the St Jacobs…read moreMarket! Even if you're not typically a pretzel enthusiast, this place will convert you. While you won't find any actual grandpas on site, what you will discover is a team of three generations of skilled women meticulously crafting the ultimate soft pretzels right before your eyes. From shaping the dough to the boiling and baking process, it's a mesmerizing experience. Be prepared to wait in line for about 20 minutes to place your order, but trust me, it's worth it. Grampa's offers options, including sugar cinnamon and the classic butter and salt. They even provide a side package of mustard if that's your preference. What sets these pretzels apart is their perfect soft chewiness, unlike the typical hard, snack-type pretzels you might be used to. And they don't skimp on portions here - you'll receive a generous serving. Most patrons don't settle for just one; it's common to see people buying multiple pretzels. So, if you find yourself in line, embrace the opportunity to get a few more of these treats! Grab a beer from TWB across from it to complement that pretzel. As many shops in this area, it's just a counter but there's a few spots to sit inside the Peddler's Village and also outdoor patio seating.

If you planning a day trip it should incorporate St Jacob's Farmer's Market followed by St. Jacobs Antique Market and St Jacobs Factory Outlet Mall. Your day trip is not complete till you see the town as well. St Jacob's Farmer's Market: Make sure you do this first as fresh produce could run out sometime.The market is divided into 3 parts...

Where as the Tuesday market section has Cheese, Meat, Baked goods and much more. Whereas the open market has Fresh Vegetables. Fruits, Baked Produces, Juice... The Market has a Outlet mall and an Antiques store near by. Which are good to take a break and enjoy some air conditioning in the summer. The Antique store is quite awesome if you are into fun old signs, coins and trucks. St. Jacobs Antique Market: Antique market as they had quite a large selection of awesome things but everything was very expensive! You can expect everything from furniture, art, china, militaria, coins, jewellery, mini vehicles, etc. If you love watching American Pickers, well you will love this place as this is the aftermath of buying it cheap, cleaning it up and selling at a very high price. They also have bulk shop just like bulk barn attached to it. Over all if you are checking the market out make sure you check out the Antique store as well. Jacobs Factory Outlet Mall: Its not what you would expect from a outlet mall but it does provide a good break from the heat if you been up and running around in the summer at the St. Jacob Market. The outlet mall itself is very clean and located in a old Barn looking like building. There are not much high brand stores...well there aren't much stores at all. The washrooms are clean and you can get cold water from the water fountain. There is not much choice on the food either but the small Lego toy building zone is fun and they have bunch of good stuff built as well. The Town: Not far from the Market area has quite a few decent stores to check out. You can enjoy the ice cream from Chocolates 'N More or buy some fresh bread or sip a cup of cappuccino from the Stone Crock Bakery. Parking is free and make sure you check out the expensive wide variety of Canadian pottery including pottery made on location at Conestoga River Pottery shop. All in all a decent day trip.
