Absolutely lovely way to spend a late morning/early afternoon with friends and family! I don't go…read moreto farmers markets much, but this one really checked all my boxes of expectations, including a range of vendors, food, gifts, specialty items, coffee, seafood, crafts, and clothing. There were probably 100 vendors and the walking path is intuitive and mostly flat, mostly wheelchair accessible. The only few downsides are: It'd be nice to know ahead of time which vendors are coming when. A vendor we remembered previously wasn't there today. There were no recycle bins. So each to recycle, why not add some? I will suggest it to the organizers. There weren't many shaded places to sit and eat, so it would have been nice to have some popup tents and benches, but I know, I know: who's gonna pay for that? I tried a cupcake from a local baker and a smoothie from a food truck, tasted some rum from a spot out in Frederick, had a $4 chai from an Indian food booth, and ordered some empanadas to go.

Outside of weirdly expensive bread, the Pleasant Valley produce stop is a cute little condensed…read morespace with a lot to offer. Sure they have your fruit and veg, an inordinate amount of apples the last time I went. But they carry seasonal produce that has generally been of good quality each time I've gone. They also have multiple fridges and freezers full of every sort of beef and pork that you could probably name off the top of your head. I've picked up tomatoes there, onions, cucumbers, corn, and the last time I went I got a frozen four park of raw hamburger patties. They also have a wide array of jams, preserves, and pickled goods. Customer service has been efficient. The market itself is not huge at all, but they make ample use of the space. Like I said, outside of the weirdly expensive breads/rolls I think their prices are generally fair. And it's on the way to and from my ceramics class which is super convenient. Bonus: Right outside on the right side of the building is Vittles In The Pines BBQ tent which is ABSOLUTELY delicious. You gotta try their... pretty much anything.

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, law requires all employees and customers to wear masks while shopping. Pleasant Valley is flouting that law, with several employees not wearing masks and a sign telling customers they are optional.

I'll go to Norman's farm stand on Jones Mill Rd where they have good produce and I'm treated like a valued customer.

We've been patronizing Fox Hollow since it opened years ago. It's close to our home and might not…read morehave learned about it if we hadn't driven by often enroute to Damascus, MD. We buy meat here regularly, yet we have sampled baked and jarred goods as well as Christmas trees. It is a reliable place for quality foodstuffs. Though not as expansive as a grocery store, Fox Hollow specializes in small production unique items. See photos for examples. Lamb is our favorite selection here as Fox Hollow has won numerous awards for it. Parking is free but can be tight on weekends. Hours are reasonable but recommend calling in advance to ensure they are open. as a family business, there are times they are out back dealing with the animals or garden. Compared to discount chains, prices tend to be higher, yet not as high as the boutique butchers elsewhere in Montco. We like supporting a local family business offering the kind of products and atmosphere that is hard to experience otherwise. some may call it "Olde Time" yet I prefer to think it will be the preferred future for many of us. Agree? How Stephanie can remember our names, address, and preferences is a magical power we definitely appreciate. Enjoy!

This is definitely a big market -- of some kind!…read more As long as you can get in, it's really great. If you want to park, getting here early is probably a great advantage .... I do agree that this isn't so much a farmer's market as a bunch of prepared food and drink vendors, for the most part. Once (or if) you get over what you thought't'd be based on the name and get into what it is, it's really fun! I really enjoyed talking to all the vendors -- they were all very friendly and open, informative and I must say, joyous! Some were also a bit apologetic for being out of certain things, because I went at the very end when some things were sold out. There was still a great selection, though! I obtained much deliciousness from Rosemary Bistro Cafe in the form of Local Grilled Stuffed Zucchini, Watermelon Gazpacho, saucy beans, and a many-greens soup. This alone fed me for days .... There was also a great and greatly innovative cross-cultural mix in the Black Bean Hummus from Layla's Food Company, and a most wonderful Pesto Genovese from Open Hand that I used to make a beauteous pesto pizza -- mmm! I did eat really well for days with what I got here ....

One of my favorite weekend farmers market, I've been coming here for the past 10 years! While the…read moremarket is usually at the elementary school, it sometimes took place at the Bethesda Farm Women's Market near Bethesda Row. There's plenty of parking in the back! There's an impressive variety of 20+ vendors with scrumptious pastries and gluten-free baked goods, fresh squeezed and cold-pressed juices, dog treats, empanadas, alcohol, and fresh made-to-order pizza and crepes. Here are my favorites: El Jefe Wood-fired Pizza - The new wood-fired pizza is delicious and the Margherita pizza tastes like Napoletan pizza, replaced Cipolla Rossa pizza. Grandma Vera's Bakery - You must try the cheesy Brazilian bread, gooey and gluten-free before they sell out! The Oreo scones are truly a delicacy! The fresh squeezed OJ and smoothies are refreshing and great way to cool off during the summer. Fresh Market Bakery - Located at the front of the market, the vendor has a variety of scrumptious breads, quiches, pies, and other baked goods. The fluffy asaigo cheese and seasonal focaccia breads is divine and sell out fast!. The cheesy and blueberry scones are my favorite! The spinach mushroom quiche is bursting with flavor and worth $25. Family of Nuts - Galore of roasted and flavorful, healthy nuts. The Apple and Truffle Parmesan almonds are my favorite while hubby likes the Everything Bagel seasoned Cashews. Jarabe Paleta - The paleta popsicles are refreshing and perfect way to cool during the scorching summer heat. The mango, watermelon, apple cinnamon and peaches and cream are my favorite! The strawberry yogurt paleta and creamy cinnamon horchata are fun to try, the spicy mango delivers with a tangy tamarind flavor and a spicy kick! Little Sesame - The caramelized onion hummus hit the spot! While hummus can be a bit bland, the caramelized onion added a nice sweet touch and paired well with the fluffy pita. The pita was nice to try, but quite dense and hard to conquer all 4 pitas. Yoga in a Bowl - Delicious Peace Kathi paneer breakfast wraps and Rose and Mango Lassi cold drinks. Arepateca - While the arepas were fun to try, there were dense and overstuffed, and quite messy! The hot chocolate with a spicy kick was good! Rita's Crepes - The Veggie Supreme with scrambled egg is bursting with flavor and quite filling! My toddler enjoyed the crispy crepe and it was so much fun to watch the staff make the crepe. Fight Juice - Cold-pressed fresh juice that's healthy and not too sweet. The Strawberry Lemonade is quite refreshing! Simply Delicious Desserts - True to its name, the fresh eggplant parm and butternut squash ravioli lasagna are simply delicious! Rita's Crepes - The Veggie Supreme with scrambled egg is bursting with flavor and quite filling! My toddler enjoyed the crispy crepe and it was so much fun to watch the staff make the crepe. Jinlan Wenhua - Authentic hand-made dumplings with an impressive variety of vegetarian and meat hearty dumplings (sell out early!). They come frozen and are best prepared at home by pan-frying for crispy edges or steaming for soup dumplings. The sweet potato and glass noodle dumplings were bursting with flavor and the Carrots and Zucchini dumplings were also tasty. Yufka Bakery - Crispy phyllo spinach and feta cheese sandwich with spicy mayo. Bun'd Up (Alternate Weeks) - Scrumptious soft handmade bao buns stuffed with tofu, chicken, beef, pork, etc The bite-size buns are airy and light and topped with greens, scallions, crunchy fried onions, and aioli sauce. Rice Culture - Loved trying the waffle cone fish shaped Taiyakis filled with custard and red bean paste. The custard was my pick while my daughter enjoyed the red bean paste. Butterfly Spirits - The 4 pack of Eldenflower Seltzer is boozy and delicious! Twin Valley Distillery - The Apple Cinnamon Whiskey costs $29 is refreshing and pairs well with apple cider and prefer it over the flagship 1812 Blended Whiskey at $42, which isn't that smooth. Clear Skies Meadery - Bought a bottle of the maraschino liquor. Potomac Sweets - With a galore of scrumptious pastries to choose from, the Almond Croissant and Almond Chocolate hit the spot! The baked goods are definitely on the sweeter side. Baked by Jael - The decadent raspberry crumble bar and the fudgy chocolate chip brownie hit the spot! Impasta Gluten-Free - The mini berry tart was delicious! Not a fan of the dense Chocolate Chip or Garlic Sour Dough Scones, they had a weird smell and taste to them. Rise Gluten-Free Bakery - The Buttermilk Biscuit was delicious and stayed moist for 2 days! I wasn't a fan of the chocolate croissant. While the rich decadent chocolate filling was tasty, the doughy shell was underbaked with a sour taste and didn't settle well . Pearl Iced Tea - The passionfruit tea is quite bitter and wish their tea could be sweetened by simple syrup or sugar. Wonderful market and always love coming back and bringing home a bunch of goodies!
