Katona Farms is an absolute treat, and I wish I had visited sooner, specifically earlier in the…read moreyear, during asparagus season. I have an individual farm share at Katona's neighbor, Honey Brook Organic Farm and I retrieve my produce (and pick my berries and flowers) on Thursdays. So, I've been passing Katona for the last 3 months, telling myself each time I should stop in. Honey Brook planted corn this year, as an add-on crop, so you can purchase some each week for an additional fee (members otherwise pay in advance for the rest of the produce for the whole season), but I've been put off by the price - $1 an ear. This is my only complaint about Honey Brook - and it's minor. I did try two ears of their organic corn last week, and it was, like everything else grown there, amazing. But we are at the height of New Jersey's corn season; and I am in corn country. I knew I could do at least just as well, cornwise, elsewhere. I like organic food, and philosophically, prefer it, but I can't always justify it financially. Maybe that's shortsighted of me - I am a big fan of bees, and the earth's other little critters that suffer under non-organic practices. But now the corn is already grown AND ISN'T GOING TO EAT ITSELF! So I stopped in at Katona. They've got a NJ Preserved Farm designation, so even though they're not organic, at least they're not condos now. Or a freakin' golf course. Or a parking lot. Or strip mall. The market is way in the back, behind some buildings. It isn't hard to find, but I had that "where the heck is this place?" feeling the whole time I was driving around back there. The staff was very nice. Despite the sign, "Corn: $5 a dozen," they told me it was $4 a dozen today, and they'd give me a baker's dozen -- and, as it turns out, a baker's half dozen, if I wanted less corn. So I got 7 ears of corn for $2. I haven't had a proper NJ tomato all season, and saw that Katona had some, so I grabbed 3 medium-sized babies. And a cucumber. With the corn, the whole bag of produce was $3.50. My farm share included 2 melons, a pile of potatoes, and a bunch of very large beets, in addition to flowers, and herbs. So between that, my work bag, and, oh, the two loaves of bread I picked up at the local IPB (BOGO day today), and Katona's produce, I had a hell of a time unloading my car tonight! But I ate really well, Katona providing the bulk of the meal. The corn was every bit as good as the organic stuff down the street, and the bonus was that I had a tomato to go with it. I ripped up a couple of basil leaves and threw them on top. That first bite of tomato was eyes-rolled-back-in-my-head joy. Pure joy. How I've missed you Jersey tomatoes! I roasted my Honey Brook zucchini in rounds, after brushing them with pesto, and topping them with just a little bit of Romano and mozzarella. I may never eat zucchini any other way. While my experience at IPB was not quite stellar, the bread was such a nice addition to the meal. I just finished it off with a glass of cabernet. It is summer, and I am happy.

I'll be honest, I haven't met a farmer's market that I wasn't a fan of. I hope the reader will…read moreagree with me that they are important in our ultra violet lit up, prepackaged and processed supermarket world. This market is a tiny one. Only about 10 vendors. 3 farmers, a bakery, small batch pickle vendor, a few soap vendors, and a Charlie's Chips guy are some that I recall. It has changed days and locations also to keep us on our toes. You can now find it near The Lofts on route 33, every Tuesday from 3-7. It seems like a strange time but I guess they hope to capitalize on homeward bound workers. Most vendors were under tents to counteract the hottest part of the day, and keep their offerings fresh. I scored a huge bulb of Elephant garlic complete with flower that I am itching to try. I hope locals and commuters will check it out. It's good to have a chance to connect with the folks responsible for providing our foods.

There was an area to shop pears in boxes (I wouldn't recommend because for just a little pricier you get way yummier fresh pears to pick but they're still good) and sweet potatos and dried figs and more. Then there's a cute tractor ride that comes quite often, not much dust gets blown up, and short but scenic for the fall foliage to get to your pear picking destination. There, you see endless rows of fresh Korean pears so full and plentiful!! And they even have an abundance of ladders available for you to use to pick the pears. The price is pricey but the pears are beyond amazing and highly recommend. Come taste their amazing pears and support this farm! Huge applause to the abundance of pears, quality of pears, and good management of fallen pears/bugs/bees around (there weren't many!). Overall was lots of people but the farm ran pretty efficiently and big enough space for everything. Super kind workers and visitors

Yrs ago the crop was right next to the parking so you can just wheel your kids in strollers around. Not anymore. Now in order to get to the picking area, you have to get onto tractors. Despite me calling ahead and asking, the reception falsely told me that the farm was stroller and wheelchair accessible. Very disappointed, as we had to separate our family and leave some people behind at the picnic tables since they cannot get onto the tractor. It's overcrowded, there are bus loads of Cantonese tourists that gets dropped off. It can get loud and pushy to get onto the tractor. The wait line to get onto tractor has no shade so you're just standing in the hot sun. It's all dirt roads so it gets very dusty with every car that goes by. You're better off just buying Asian pears at Hmart. If you like the fruit picking experience, go pick apples at small farms. If you insist on experiencing Asian pears picking, bring an umbrella for the sun, masks for the dust, go on a less busy weekday, and leave the kids and elders home.

They have several local farms selling produce represented, Stace of Cakes, Big Matt's Burritos, homemade pastries, a local soapmaker with a "canine rehydration station" and some kind of entertainment going on. I've stopped by early on 2 occasions and liked what I saw. I try to buy my produce "locally" and farmers market like this one are some of the best ways to accomplish this. Yes, most of the produce and the prices are the same at the vegetable purveyors, but the variety is increasing as the growing season progresses. I was a little disappointed that local crafts did not have much of a showing, but may as this farmer's market grows, there'll be more craftspeople with their wares.

Hello the site/page as all others I've seen,clear address and directions --- that are absolutely…read morewrong! All sites, ads and queries I have made identify it as at: 207 Crosswicks Street, Bordentown City, NJ THAT IS NOT RIGHT. A GPS will bring you there - but the market ain't there! The location is actually just off the corner - behind the gas station - just where the (circle/jug) turn from 206/130 South meets Crosswicks (route 528 and some maps/GPS identify as Butts Ave). Then it is behind a building, sort of under the water tower. Making matters worse it may be called and known as Carslake to locals, etc (and I now guess may be the name of the building)- but - the sign at the street says something else. (Maybe the name of the park or open area?) I strongly suggest that the organizers correct this everyplace possible and even put some sign up identifying entrance to market.

It was surprising to me that I hadn't reviewed this market yet. Upon reflection it did occur to me…read morethat my last visit was close to a few decades ago. I was derelict in my Yelping of this institution for far too long. I was here seeking out Amish cottage cheese which I haven't been able to get at the Trenton farmers market for many years. I knew it would be located in the Amish wing but I needed to walk the rest of the building too. I entered that section to find crowds of people everywhere. To view the prepared hot foods would have required standing in a long line just to eventually get close enough to peek at the cases. I found the cottage cheese prepackaged and decided to walk around the rest of the place before returning to make a few purchases. There were so many temptations in the Amish part, pretzels, prepared salad items, donuts, baked goods in general and of course the meats. The rest of Columbus has treasures to be found as well, depending on your outlook. Discount over the counter drugs, health and beauty,craft soda and pickles, clothes of all kinds, shoes, housewares. I could probably go on. Really something for everyone. My stroll took me past a chicken shop that once I caught the smell of its fried goods, I knew I'd be trying on my way back. At the far end where other food stalls are I saw a taqueria that I plan on trying next trip. With a bag full of fried goodness I was no longer concerned about the Amish foods. I grabbed the cottage cheese and walked out with just a bit of regret that I didn't snag a donut or a dozen. I popped into the produce building just to see what was there. Nice looking veggies but most were sold in bulk. Towards the end of this building is a seafood market that I've heard good things about. Now I have more reasons to return. 4.5 stars !
