This place is incredible!!! They have such a wide variety of fruit, vegetables, baked goods, pumpkins, cheese, meat, oysters, canned goods, decor, etc. You name it, they probably have it. I got some heirloom tomatoes, apples, a grapefruit, a small pumpkin for our kiddo, zucchini, cucumbers, and some other items. Everyone was so nice and helpful. Everything was so fresh and stocked well. I can't wait to come back! read more

There are a lot of things to like about this produce market. I visited for the first time today and found all the staff friendly. There's a variety of plants and vegetables. I was able to pickup a few tomato plants for $1.98 each. The heirloom tomatoes are tasty but they're a product of Canada. I noticed the stickers after I'd already purchased. Whenever possible I prefer local grown but I understand that's sometimes a challenge. They have delicious cookies, bread and oatmeal pies from Montana Good Bread Co. read more

Pole Green Produce - Delicious - Grocery Near Me - Mechanicsville, Virginia

This is the best produce stand I've ever been to. Amazing high quality veggies, other fun additions and fruits when in season. The staff are friendly - I always buy a lot and they help me get it out to my car. If I lived closer this would be the first stop I'd make before hitting a grocery store for groceries every time. They accept card or cash. read more

I LOVE their fresh produce. The employees are very helpful and knowledgeable. Can't wait for 2026 opening

They're great! If I can't travel to buy apples for Fall, this is my go to place! They also sell locally produced honey and pumpkins. Last year I purchased about two bushels of apples from them. Make sure to follow them on Facebook. read more

I will lead with I am a huge fan of Pole Green Produce. I get a little sad when they close for the season, but I would hardly call it a local stand. Yes, they have a lot of local (Virginia) products but they also sell a host of products branded the same as what you find at a better price in the local grocery store. I say this not as a criticism but to provide an accurate description of the products. I understand that it is impractical to run an operation this size selling only local products: growing seasons are simply too short in Virginia. Pole Green Produce sells both VA and SC peaches. The SC peaches I bought last week we're cold from refrigeration but sitting out in 90-degree temperatures. As a result, they were only good for about a day. I bought them knowing this and prepared to use or freeze them ASAP. It is important to note that Pole Green Produce clearly labels the origins of their products. On the other hand , I think their labeling of their payment policy is deceptive. There is a large-print sign at each register stating that they offer a 3.5% cash discount but when you read the longer, smaller font explanation says that they add a surcharge. These are two very different policies resulting in a seemingly deceptive practice. read more

Pole Green Produce - Hanover (local) green peppers - Grocery Near Me - Mechanicsville, Virginia

Very good selection fair prices and planning to return often I like that they carry your items to your car

We were driving by and noticed all the pumpkins in front and stopped in...I'm so glad we did! At the moment, Pole Green Produce has so many pumpkins of all shapes and sizes, mums, apples and other local produce. The prices for the pumpkins and mums are so much cheaper than Lowe's or the big box stores. We were only there for a few minutes but I will absolutely be back to pick up some local produce (eggs, fall vegetables, honey) soon! read more

What a cute place to shop for local produce and products. I had heard about this market from a friend and decided to stop by. Wow - the place is very popular it seems. Early October, so you can buy TONS of fall flowers/plants/pumpkins etc . I bought lots of local fruits and veggies and enjoyed walking around discovering things I am unfamiliar with. I'd go back again. read more

I grew up in the area (moved away many years ago) and I remember then this was just a tiny farm stand. They've expanded quite a bit, but in a good way. Any time we pass through the area this time of year, this is a must stop for Hanover tomatoes. If you've never had one - you have to! There is nothing like them and I promise, you will be hooked. The variety at this stand is amazing, and if it didn't come from right here in Hanover, they tell you where it's from. Support your local growers! read more

We switched from another produce stand to this much larger one during the pandemic due to this owner's respect for social distancing and the need for masks. We are very glad we did, as this was definitely a "trade up!" Excellent assortment of fresh veggies, clearly labeled as to whether locally obtained or not, if there is any ambiguity (we don't get local bananas in Virginia, but there is a big difference between a local tomato and one trucked in from Florida.) Well stocked. Everything is always top quality and very fresh. Almost everything is select-your-own from bins or crates, not prepackaged. (Some minor exceptions.) Prices are very good. Hidden gem: local oysters (shucked, jarred) at reasonable prices. Open air, room to get past each other. We make this a go-to stop on our food shopping trips. Worth the miles. read more

I have to admit I love produce stands and this one does not disappoint. There is a good variety of produce and prices are reasonable. They also have a variety of jams, jellies, and pickled items. The service is fast and friendly and stand itself looks clean. They have their own parking lot and have not had issues finding parking even when it is very busy. read more

I went here for the first time the other day and it was SO fun!!! They have tons of fresh fruits and veggies, and lots of different jams, jellies, and honeys! They were really nice at checkout, and we didn't spend a ton of money, but got a lot of nice produce. Definitely going back when I can! I only got two pictures, but the eggplants were such a vibrant purple I couldn't resist lol. read more

Every time I come here, it always reminds me of the summers I worked here when it was at its original location (where the gas station sits now). The people, the fresh veggies, the sights! Always exciting! If you truly want "farm-to-table", this is the place to go! This family owned business has been around for decades and they still put out some of the freshest produce you'll ever find in the area! It's always exciting to get the famous Hanover tomatoes and fresh white, sweet corn, or the latest produce to come in from the harvest. It really doesn't get any better for a farm produce stand that has become a Mechanicsville, Virginia institution! read more

I love supporting local small businesses. Pole Green Produce is a charming little road side produce stand with lush plants and farm fresh veggies!! This place has fresh out the water oysters and crab meat along with homemade baked goods. The vibrant flowers, friendly staff, and hand written signage all come together to create the perfect storm of pleasant even in the midst of a global pandemic! read more

Wonderful place to get healthy fresh vegetables! I have been buying from Pole Greens for many years! I have never been disappointed in their quality and friendly service! I have met people from all over Richmond there! read more

This review is for Stuart, the guy selling fresh seafood out of his cooler at Pole Green Market. This fellow is a real character and great fun to talk to. He is also selling very high quality crab meat, dry pack scallops and shrimp. His stuff is not cheap, but it is of higher quality than I can get at any fishmonger in town for about the same price. So I am more than happy to support this local business man. read more

Our place of choice. We enjoy the fresh produce and amazing seafood. Most is locally sourced but they tell you what isn't local.

Although all produce is not local, the produce is usually marked as to where it comes from. Good selection. Reasonable prices. Fall is coming and their fall flowers are spectacular. Go there. You'll enjoy the produce and the selection. read more

Good selection of fresh and canned foods and seasonal flowers. Much of it is local but not all of it. Very fast and efficient staff.

I love going out to Pole Green for fresh local vegetables, it's not cheap but it's fresh and they have a great variety to choose from. I don't mind paying for local produce, it tastes better and it's important to support local farmers and the community. Is there a little sticker shock initially? Maybe, it's so worth it! They also have plants and flowers, baked goods, and some non-local produce, but the non-local is still from the USA and from what I have observed, procured from the east coast (NC cantaloup, peaches from SC, for example). Another thing I love about Pole Green produce, the people! Year after year the faces stay familiar, and they always offer to carry purchases to the car. You won't find that kind of service anywhere else. read more

If you like Fresh and Local produce, this is the place to go! They have a large selection.

I am so excited. Fairly new to the area and was trying to find a good farmers market not to far away from me. Two people recommended this place too me. I went this morning and it is fabulous. The tomatoes, peaches, so far are perfect. They even have fresh bread from the Carytown Bread company, which is perfect with no additives. You all need to go. I promise it will be worth your trip.

BEAUTIFUL produce! HUGE Hanover tomatoes. Fresh, butter beans, squash, eggplant... the list goes on and on. If you live anywhere other than the Hanover/Mechanicsville area, it's a bit of a hump, but you won't regret checking out this stand. read more

Quite possibly any other day, this may have been a really good find, but today, it ummm lacked some sparkle. Not to say this is a bad place, it isn't. It was just a long drive to find a decent sized, but not very large produce stand. The stand mixes some locally grown produce, as well as items that can likely be found in your local grocery store. The reward is if you buy the local items, the quality and pricing is great. If it is produce shipped in, you're likely to be better off going to Kroger's. If you're in that part of the area, stop by and visit. For us, it's a long way to go for what we're able to purchase there. read more

This is a large produce stand with many options for produce and even eggs, ham, honey and other local goods. We stopped by for the pumpkin harvest and we enjoyed ourselves. They had wagons available for shopping, but our son enjoyed riding and pushing/pulling the wagon as we picked our family pumpkin. They also had a lot of Halloween/Autumn decor, lots of flowers, a hay slide and a hay maze! The service was friendly and quick and parking was ample. We will definitely be back. IMHO, it is a great place to pick up some local produce. read more

I make the trip from Southside to enjoy all the produce here. Best selection of everything here. Tomatoes are sweet and plentiful, butter beans already shelled are always my favorite. All the other markets don't have a much of a selection as Pole Green. read more

This place is a gum, love the local tomatoes, hey have a great variety of vegetables to choose from. They also have other items like baked good, seafood, jams, honey, etc. it's so worth it! read more

They have the largest variety and best quality of any produce stand in the area (so far as I know). The prices are reasonable, too! And (amazing!) the folks at the register are polite and pleasant! Definitely worth the trip. read more

GREAT selection of local produce at GREAT prices. They even have several specialty items (not super local, but somewhat) such as preserves, BBQ sauces, etc. We got the famous Hanover tomatoes, some squash, BBQ sauce, and the Triple Crown preserves. Everything was great. We'll definitely be back! read more

Awesome produce stand!! So much amazing local produce. Its worth the drive from ShortPump. And they are open 7 days a week from April - November. read more

Such a fantastic local produce place!

Bought un shucked corn on Sunday 7/15/2018 came home and shucked it and found the ears were mal shaped with half the kernals missing - an indicator of poor polination I am told. I called Pole Green this morning and was told that they had shucked corn at a higher price that I could have bought and that they would not have packaged corn such a this. The un shucked corn display does not invite you to shuck it or provide trash can like at Tom Leonard's - I guess it's buyer beware at Pole Green. They offered to refund my money if I brought a sales slip-not going to drive 30 miles round trip! read more

I was there this week and it was great as always. Only thing missing was the japanese ( finger) eggplant. I saw the sign but when asked , no one really helped. they should take sign down if they don't have it is my suggestion. rest of veggies was wonderful. They also offer Stuarts Fresh seafood choices. The guy selling the seafood has a wonderful helpful personality. All local seafood ( none of that mystery Asian stuff)... We love to support our local farmers and fishing industry. read more

So much local produce, at prices better than the grocery store. Even the produce not from Hanover strives to be local, and they have a good selection of jarred spreads and stuff too. Also, local eggs, cheese, and butter; you must go here! read more

Nice farmers market with fresh flowers, produce, and baked goods. Be careful, not all produce is "local." Read labels and signs carefully. They accept credit cards and cash which is convenient. Most of the jams, sauces and honey are brought in from Maryland. I picked up some cantaloupe, peaches, zucchini bread and peanut butter cookies. All very delicious. It's worth a stop if you're local or just happen to be driving through town. read more
