My review pertains to the seasonal Farmer's Market held in the parking lot of the church. I'm sure…read morethis a lovely church, but I've never been inside. Who's to say you can't praise the Lord from a parking lot lol! 2016 marks the 15th year of the Forest Hills Farmer's Market. The event is sponsored by the Late Bloomers Garden Club of Forest Hills and features all local vendors. A few of my favorite vendors are Gosia's homemade pierogies, Billy's Smokehouse for delicious smoked meats and Bridges Farm for fresh fruits and veggies. Also, be sure to stop and grab a delicious cupcake from Jill at her Baby Cakes stand. Other vendors have items like kettle corn, brick oven pizza, fresh salsa, wines, cakes, baked goods and more! The market runs every Friday from June-Oct from 4-7p.

I've become a big fan of this market in particular. There are multiple vendors with a good…read moreselection of fresh fruit and vegetables which I long for. Funny that the ripe tomatoes I crave were presented as "seconds" because they were so ripe. Perfect for me! Nothing better than cutting out the core of a truly ripe tomato (warm and not refrigerated -- they lose their flavor when cold), sprinkling some salt into the cavity, holding it over the kitchen sink and sinking your teeth into it, the juice and seeds running down your chin. Ahhh... Then, to my joyous surprise, I've discovered not just one but two fabulous vendors that I look forward to visiting. The Cookie Goddess (one Martie Allen) sells home made baked goods and I can't say enough praises for her flourless brownie. Seriously moist, rich, and chocolately! Give me more! At $1.50 each, you can't go wrong (except getting there after they're all sold out). Then, there is La Mendocina, represented at the market by its owner, Monica Aveni-Ranii. She provides Argentine fare and I can't get there early enough to try all her delights as some of them sell out early. I have tried her beef empanadas (2 for $5) and the dulce de leche she sells at $7 a jar and I'm definitely a fan! Let's see. I've also purchased organic catnip before. I don't know that my cats can tell that it's organic but they're happy so I'm happy. Dinner tonight consisted of my beef empanadas from La Mendocina, fresh corn and tomatoes from one of the local vendors, and a flourless brownie from the Cookie Goddess. Yes, this is one nice market, indeed! Open from 2 - 6pm on Thursdays mid June to early/mid October.

This was a delightful little stop to pick up a dinner picnic for our hotel that evening.

We ended up gathering a turkey wrap, broccoli cashew salad, and tomatoes for our dinner. They also sold a variety of soups and salads, kombuchas, fresh cut flowers, oats for breakfast and more. The broccoli cashew salad was fresh and delicious. I was a little bummed that the Turkey was but fresh cut and appeared to have preservatives/lunch meat texture. The staff we encountered were friendly and it was a great visit overall.

There is a very wide selection of produce - I recommend doing a lap around before buying to scope out what looks best! There's also some great vendors for things like middle eastern food, freshly made breakfast sandwiches, and breads and baked goods. The wide variety of vendors is what sets the Bloomfield market apart from other locations (Squirrel Hill, Lawrenceville).

Retail vendors are available offering unique products unavailable in stores. Regulars are easily noticeable walking towards their regular vendor spending a considerable time amount with their favorites taking their day slow exploring the days live music or fun activities offered that Saturday enjoyed by adults, kids & families alike. One day I will partake in the full mid morning to afternoon experience enjoying everything this farmers market has to offer. My sister Introduced me to Swissvale farmers market 2 years ago & since have enjoyed vendors and stalls offered that Saturday. On occasion vendors rotate & new ones take their place that Saturday or become a permanent fixture. I suggest enthusiasts follow their favorite vendors on social media or the web as select vendors attend other farmers market venues and or are available online. Judging by stalls presenting fresh produce, farmers in attendance take pride in their crops & offer customers their best. My favorite stall offers concord grapes & ripe blueberries. Enjoying throughout the week as a smoothie or in cereal my fruits remained flavorful. My future purchases will include in addition to my tradition grapes & berries will be tomatoes green beans, apples & cider. Farmers here are informative reguarding their crops & will show customers friendly service & recommend their best crop. Advantages shopping the stalls over grocery stores are price supporting local farmers & quality. Customers who receive EBT are included with workers' swiping cards & recipients receiving wooden tokens in exchange & valid at stalls & select vendors. Local musicians liven up the atmosphere adding a fun ambience to the experience. My sister participated in one Saturday's fun activity which included sidewalk chalk drawing. Everyone who participated made wonderful artworks fascinating me with color variety & designs. Partaking in different vendors 3 favorites of mine included Great Harvest Bread Company Pita Land & Livengood Brothers Maple Syrup. Pepperoni Rolls & Cheddar Biscuits from Great Harvest Bread tasted best. Cheddar Biscuits got set aside & had during breakfast on Sunday & warmed up enjoying a buttery soft dough with cheddar flavoring consistency putting Red Lobster to shame & would recommend eating as a sausage biscuit or Biscuits & gravy. Maple Syrup at its finest offering superior flavor complimenting french toast pancakes, other breakfast delights or any recipe requiring syrup. Selling healthy alternatives to any potato chips or nachos. Pita Land sells Pita chips & paris with Hummus or select dips available at select vendors or stores. In addition to farmers markets Pita Land chips retail at select stores if you run low previous to Sat & crave Pita Chips. Excited with anticipation My return is evident exploring other vendors & stalls present. Include a favorite vendor in your review if you wish.
