Pike Central Farm Market opened today! Lucky timing on my part as I was there early, meeting a…read morefriend for breakfast. Hours are 9:00-1:30. They are located at 935 Prose Street, next to Bark Central. There was quite a variety of vendors here for opening day. Not a lot of produce stands, but other things to enjoy such as Greek specialties from Mathias (now located off Twinbrook Pkwy) and Metro Microgreens selling a large variety of organic microgreens at reasonable prices. I bought a clamshell container of sunflower. About 4oz for $10. They come rooted in coco coir mats that are compostable. There is a parking garage the other side of Bark that is pretty vacant in the Market morning hours and of course free for two hours. The market is also very dog friendly and no masks are required anymore.

A pretty solid farmers market. Especially if you're looking for produce. I think I counted three or…read morefour produce stands at the market. I ended up going with the one that I saw a line at while I was purchasing from the bakery stand. The tomatoes I purchased from that stand were top notch! Would definitely go there again. I have to say... I was a little disappointed with my breads from that bakery stand I went to in particular. It's name is something like "Farmers Market Bakery" or "Farm Market Breads." Something like that... very literal. The woman there was super helpful and ran down the line of breads (which they have a pretty solid selection of). I ended up getting a loaf of the rosemary and citrus sourdough, pumpernickel, a scone, and a loaf of challah for mom. I didn't LOVE the rosemary citrus or the pumpernickel. I thought the breads were a bit too dense and dry. The scone also wasn't the best scone I've ever had. I'd likely hold off on this stand next time. They do have DMV empanadas there which I love! That was lunch that day. I got a shrimp, spinach and cheese, and spicy pork empanada. All of them were delicious with a special shout out to the spinach and cheese and shrimp ones. On the way out of the market, I noticed this large smoker set up next to a pop up tent that I couldn't believe I missed on the way in. I picked up some brisket and smoked chicken from that stand. The brisket was a little dry, but the chicken was everything I wanted it to be. Deep smoky flavor that did not disappoint. The gentleman running that stand was nice enough to throw in a brioche bun so I could make a brisket sandwich when I got home. I toasted the bun, and accidentally burnt the heck out of it. It was so disappointing. Note: Brioche does not need to be toasted for long at all. SO much butter in the bread. But yeah, overall a cute little farmers market that has a decent selection of produce and local vendors. Miscellaneous Distillery sets up there to sell liquor produced in Mt. Airy. There is also a local seafood vendor, cheese vendor, coffee and more. You must wear a mask while in the market, and maintain social distancing. Some stands have signs pointing out that you should purchase what you touch. Exceedingly difficult with produce... but I tried my best.

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!

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 ....

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!

Their green smoothie is so good and I'm pretty sure it's a best seller. It's a bit pricey though, $5 for a small, but worth it!

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.

A special, historic, little market hall - since 1932 - open only several days a week, featuring stalls with local items. Free to enter and shop! This Wednesday morning, only the florist and a farm goods stand were open. Although no need for produce at the moment, I appreciated their locally made items like assorted goat milk soaps from Madison Fields in Dickerson, plus various jarred items from McCutcheon's in Frederick, like: Fruit Preserves, Spreads, Butters, and Marmalades; Wildflower Honey; Hot Chow Chow, Hot Pepper Relish, and Bread & Butter Pickles; Spiced Peaches; as well as Apple and Spaghetti Sauce. Bought a jar of McCutcheon's Beet Balls, pickled that is, to take back to New York. Look forward to stopping by Farm Women's Market another time, like on a Saturday when I'm told it will be filled with all the vendors, to see what local cheeses and baked items are available! They also have a Flea Market there on Sundays. Recommend checking it out!
