Meh. Great idea and nice location, but not much for selection. The big one? Why are dogs not allowed?

It was great except the prices were very high. The vegetables and fruits were looking good .

Sometimes, here in Teabagistan or Calabama or however you want to think of the place, it's easy to feel like you're completely surrounded by the kind of folk who think it's cool when someone stands up in a public meeting and identifies himself as "a proud right-wing terrorist." If you're feeling that way, Redding Certified Farmer's Market is the antidote. Show up here on Saturday morning and you'll be saying, "Okay, here are the local hipsters. They do exist." We always start by heading for the south end of the market to Colima Tamales for early morning breakfast tamales. One of the venders makes amazing fresh-squeezed shaken lemonade -- I recommend going for one of those as well. Many of the fruit and veggie stands are organic -- we tend to stock up for the week, either on stuff we're not growing this year (corn) or stuff that we've exhausted in our garden in the short-term (currently, large tomatoes). We also buy meat from some of the local folks who raise organic, grass-fed critters. Tonight I'm going to butterfly the leg of lamb we bought, rub it in olive oil and herbs, and throw it on the BBQ. I normally tend not to patronize the stands that sell prepared foods, but this morning I bought a great jar of mustard that I'd sampled just because the vendor was wearing a "Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds" tee shirt. It didn't occur to me until just now that he was possibly being clever. Mustard. Bad seeds. read more

I want to like this farmer's market more, and I've tried to like it but there are some seriously disturbing things going on here. I've been to dozens of different farmer's markets, this one is the most irritating. First let's point out the good that is here. Local food vendors serving an eclectic mix of unique cooked and raw dishes. Tamales, kettle corn, fresh juiced veggies and fruits, Indian food and more. There's seasonal produce and locally made crafts. Now for the bad: Price fixing is rampant at this market. 7 vendors selling tomatoes for $4 a pound. All the kale is $2.50 per bunch. The list goes on and on. Everyone selling produce sells it for the same as every other vendor. There is no competition and it keeps the prices high. You can go a quarter of a mile down the street and purchase certified organic produce from the store for LESS money than the farmers market sells their non organic stuff. It's offensive to what a farmer's market should be like. I would add a star if they would end their price fixing practices. read more

Troxell's Big Red Orchard has the best apples and apple cider. Stop by and see Jerry. If you can't make it to the market then come up to their Orchard in Montgomery Creek. read more

Apparently a snowflake posted here complaining about politics...what a douche. Please expect nice happy people selling and strolling this market for the most part. Fun place get here early. read more

It's my addiction!! I was too busy to grow my own produce this year.... I've found an amazing selection of organic produce and herbs!! I wish the fresh tomatoes were there all year round!! read more

My Saturday schedule includes the Farmers Market and I love it! Unfortunately I am disappointed this past Saturday. I purchased a few tomatoes, cucumbers, and a bell pepper. The cost clearly was displayed on the scale and signs. The vendor quickly removed my tomatoes from the scale and gave me a cost that was quite higher than it really was. This has happened to me twice that I know of (I don't always check the scale), but the first time I ignored it because the cost was not much higher than I calculated in my head and figured I added wrong. This time I questioned it and it came down to weighing the tomatoes again. She quickly told me the correct cost and hurried me away out of frustration of being "caught" I believe. Not sure if scales and vendors are monitored closely like other businesses or not but they should be. read more

Enjoy going here on the weekends to get my local veggies and fruits. They also have local bands playing usually and that's always enjoyable. We can sit and eat and listen to good music.Not as big as other farmer's markets I have been to in other cities, but it's a blessing that we actually have somewhere to buy local fruits and veggies. Good for community I think! read more
