River Vale Farmers Market, River Vale

Do You know where your produce comes from? How far did it travel to reach your grocer's shelves? If you buy from us, you'll know......just down the road apiece! We're 16 years old and proud of it. Come on by and see what we're all about... The River Vale Farmer's Market is open once a week, every Thursday from 12 Noon to 6 PM rain or shine from June 21, 2012 to October 25,2012. Our Garden State growers offer a variety of fresh produce - morning fresh and ready for your tables! We're ready to offer you corn, blueberries and tomatoes as well as a bountiful host of other produce. Our motto is " If it's Jersey Fresh ---- We've got it!!!" Factory farming has created an environment that is not only inhumane for the animals but also unsanitary and unhealthy for our family tables. We have an alternative for meat and poultry that has been fed with GMO's, hormones and antibiotics: we added hormone and antibiotic free meats a few seasons ago and are happy to say that we will be offering them again from a family owned New Jersey Farm . Now, this is the way it used to be! Eat Local. Eat Humane. Eat Safe. But we offer so much more.....we've cornered the market on specialty gourmet foods and we think that you won't be disappointed! In the mood for a tasty Italian ice??? We've got ices from Clyde's. Cool, delicious and made from the freshest ingredients. Just the thing to perk you up on a hot summer's day. Stop by and sample the tastiest fresh mozzarella in the country, we also have champagne Maryland crab cakes, gourmet seafood and fresh pasta from Panzarella Foods....want more? Try our frozen pizzas and soups from Pie Eyed Pies. The pizzas are so tasty that you'll want to stock up for the entire week! Paul's Pickles also offers olives, stuffed mushrooms, peppers, sauerkraut and green tomatoes in addition to pickles. We can't forget the Amish Country Bakery which brings us mouth watering cookies, pies, and baked goods as well as cheese and butter all the way from Pennsylvania Dutch country. Our Jersey Farmers deserve a special note of thanks: Bob Von Thun from Von Thun's Farm comes from southern Jersey each week and has been for 12 years now. He has 160 acres devoted to vegetables alone, plus more for flowers and herbs. His team makes the 1 1/2 hour drive to River Vale each week with a truck packed with just picked produce to be delivered practically at our doorsteps! Our neighbors from Stoke's Farm continue to be part of our family. They have been part of the market for the past 8 years and we are thrilled to support a local farm. They offer a variety Jersey Fresh produce along with some of the most divine heirloom tomatoes and herbs in the state! And remember....they're just down the road apiece- all year long! Our Farmer's market also offers flowers and plants in addition to the bakery items and specialty goods as our list of available products changes and grows. The Township of River Vale is hosting this market as a community service to area residents. Please support our growers and sellers!
