Phoenixville Farmers' Market

By: Florence S. (Aug 9, 2009)
Incredible variety of vendors - fruits, veggies, mushrooms, meats (especially fond of the pasture-raised veal), baked goods, chocolates, cheeses, soap, coffee, honey, local artisans, etc. Some of the farms involve special communties such as Camphills residents and St. Gabriel's young men. Many of the farms follow organic or biodyanmic farming pricipals and many of the vendors selling prepared wares use local ingredients and traditional preparation methods such as those suggeted by the Weston A. Price Foundation. These factors make me comfortable buying things that I can't produce/grow myself. Great local musicans playing, the opportunity to learn/play things like "Go" or do yoga, and the children's tent make the market a community gathering place where it is easy to meet people and make friends. Phoenixville market is so much more than just a shopping place.
