I love that there are minimal Arts and Crafts and the focus is on the fresh foods. Every Tuesday from 8:00 am to 1:00 pm. All the vendors are friendly and can offer advice if you need it. I do wish I would see more vegetables and fresh herbs. Some of the other vendors are Lavender, Pet Snacks, Fresh Breads and Baked Goods, and a local creamery that had ice creams by the pints. The last time I went there was a jewelry maker and knife-sharpening vendors. The fruit vendors offer samples of the fruit for you to taste. I can't wait to go back and get a variety of plumcots. Can't wait to make some jam.

But I've spent more here than I spent at the Saturday farmers market at the Summit Sierra, excluding what I spend on Paul Schat's Bakery. Wedge Cheese shop has a booth here. They have a nice selection of cheeses. I had oodles of questions for them about their cheeses. After lots of discussion, I bought two small wedges. "That's a lot of work to sell two small pieces of cheese," I remarked. "Yes. It usually is," one of the owners sighed. They have the least expensive fruit here of any farmers market I've been to. Only $2 a pound. But it's only one fruit stand. And the meat booth sold lamb jerky. I've never had that before so I had to buy a bag of that. It was interesting. So while it's a small farmers market, it was a place I wanted to spend my money.

I opted for easy mayo, regular cheese and regular chili. After being is impressed by the elote I want to make sure I head back over for their fruit options. They all looked delicious and with the warm weather right around the corner I think this will be great for light lunches or snacks. I work close by so it's on my lunch stops list now!

Review #367 - 2018…read more This was my second time here and I decided to go with the mango chamango since I had a whole plate of fruits for breakfast earlier. The mango chamango was actually pretty good. It tastes like a mangonada, but in a slushy form. Last year, I ordered their mixed fruit with lime juice and chili, but it was super sour because they over drenched it with lime juice. Service was just so-so. I guess I'll be back again if I'm in the mood for a mango chamango while shopping at Meadowood.

The Riverside Farmer's Market is Reno's truly local market, with all vendors growing, raising, or…read moremaking their goods within the tightest possible radius around Reno.

It's great, locally owned & anxious to earn your business by providing excellent personalized service.

There is lots of parking and it is dog friendly too, which is nice if you want to take advantage of the nearby walking trails after you shop.

The fresh food selection is pretty good, but if you are looking for the best selection of fresh foods I would skip this one and go to Shirley's market on Saturday mornings (nearby on California Street). It's smaller and parking can be challenging, but it has the best selection of produce I've found anywhere up here.

Lots of merchandise, wide aisles- Everything was very neat and tidy.. Refrigerated cases and a case with homemade snacks.. After trying Pakora the first time (last week).. I wanted to see if they had a packet .. Staff was helpful and pointed me in the right direction. Also picked up a mild bag of curry- I've only cooked with the Japanese curry, but wanted to try something new.. My oldest had some cookies that I enjoyed, and I also found them here.. Hopefully, my new cooking adventures will be enjoyable.. and I'll be back for new spices..

This is my second year participating in Great Basin's Community Supported Agriculture Basket. I…read morethink it's a wonderful program. It's a weekly basket of local, seasonal, sustainable produce You prepay for the season and each week you pick up a big box full of a variety of goods. Sometimes you get nuts and fruits thrown into the mostly veggie mix. I split my pickup with two other friends as I am single and mostly cook for myself I could never finish one box in a timely fashion. I'm enjoying the Spring Basket which is 10 weeks of various salad greens, garlic, green onion, fresh herbs, radishes, carrots, garlic and so much more. Summer is 14 weeks of bountiful produce (just take a look at their website to see all that's included!) with beautiful Fallon melons and the occasional basket of raspberries or strawberries that made me alarmed at how delicious the fruit can be. (I literally said "omg, these strawberries have so much strawberry flavor!!" because I had become used to those huge but bland or tart berries from the grocery store). I chose to participate in this instead of going to the weekly farmers markets because this way I'm forced to try new things I might not pick out on my own. It's been fun to try new veggies and get these beautiful mostly organic heirloom varieties as well. Each week they send out a newsletter keeping you updated as to what's being harvested and what to expect in the coming week so you can menu plan. They also include recipe suggestions each week. At the end of the season they hold a potluck "Day at the Farm" at Lattin Farms which was neat to meet others and go on Hay rides and corn mazes. The organizers and participating Farmers are gracious and good at taking feedback. I'm surprised at the variety of things that are grown in northern Nevada (or nearby) although there was quite an abundance of zucchini, tomatoes, and melons every week. Overall it's a great program and I'll likely continue to participate as long as they offer it. They are expanding their pickup points and times and also offer a flower basket too.

I just joined the Great Basin Basket CSA for the first time this summer. I got my second basket…read morelast week (I signed up for both the fruits and vegetables). As mentioned in the earlier review, you pay in advance for the summer and receive a "basket" every week for 14 weeks of fresh produce from local farmers. We share both baskets with my parents as it's too much for one couple to eat. POSITIVES: You get REALLY fresh fruit and produce every week. We eat more fruits and vegetables than ever before and it forces me to try new recipes. Instead of buying the same thing every week I am getting creative and having a BLAST doing it. The fruits and vegetables really are some of the best I've ever tried. You also get a variety of fresh herbs. This last week we got Sun Jewel Melon which I've never even heard of! Not to mention, it feels good knowing that you are supporting local farmers! NEGATIVES: It's pricier than if you were to go to the local farmers market and buy the same amount of produce. We pay $32.15/week for vegetables and $20/week for fruits. For $52/week we could go crazy at the Saturday farmers market and be buying from a lot of the same growers! Also, because we can't pick up the items until after work (5:30ish) they've been in the heat/sun for a few hours and unfortunately require a lot of TLC to be able to save them for a few days. We are forced to eat a lot of it in the first couple of days (as they are ripe NOW) and then end up buying produce at the store to last the rest of the week anyways. Overall, I am really enjoying my purchase. I'm not sure I could afford to sign up again next year, but since I'm prepaid for 14 weeks I am going to definitely enjoy the fresh produce and exciting variety I receive each week. If you don't have to watch your money very closely and like the idea of trying new items while supporting local business then I highly suggest you sign up for the CSA www.greatbasinbasket.com.

They were so fresh they still had the crunch to them and they didn't skimp on the spicy.

Also, the proceeds help the families who are battling cancer in our community. The owner's story and why he wanted to start this beautiful company is so heartfelt.
