Reviews for: Bellingham Farmers Market

The most marvelous variety and quality of organic and pesticide-free fruits and vegetables that we have found at any market or store in the country.

Community gathering with beautiful organic/locally grown vegetables and fruit. Come visit.

I live near Fairhaven and love the farmer's market. I am a huge advocate of locally grown organic food! I hope we see a monumental rise in this trend!

Great local festivities and fair. I support local farmers and Bellingham's efforts to encourage community and connections.

it just so nice to go and see your local growers and knowing i can buy from them not some big change store

The greatest produce, flowers, cooked items, crafts, nicest people, and such a variety of entertainment. It's the full package!

The B'ham Market makes supporting local farms and restaurants practical and festive, and there are so many delicious choices each week!

fresh, awesome local food; beautiful and creative products from soap to jewelry to clothing and more; family fun, and it's energizing to be there!

Fresh produce, friendly people, fun for kids and adults! Entertainment and warm atmosphere. Supporting our local businesses help keep the Bellingham economy alive and well

The Bellingham Farmers Market brings our community together. It is an every weekend "must do!"

We enjoy the music and other talents, the awesome food, including the crepes and greek eyros. So many deversified items to choose from. Lots of great produce, berries, cheeses and plants and flowers. WE love the atmosphere and appreciate the additional parking. What a great way to spend Saturday mid-day. Thanks so much for being there!

i make an effort to eat local, fresh produce as the main part of my diet. the bellingham farmers market makes that process not only easy, but delightful!

Beautiful picture-perfect vegetables, knowledgeable vendors -- just a fun place to visit! Perfect location!

We love the Bellingham Farmers Market because of the gorgeous arrays of farm-fresh fruit and vegetables, cut flowers, as well as potted herbs, shrubs, perennials and vegetables. There is also delicious local wild salmon available cooked on a bun or smoked and packaged to take home. Ethnic cuisine abounds for a quick lunch, French crepes or Indian, Greek or Ethiopian dishes to tempt and tickle your taste buds. Fresh baked biscotti or Mallard ice-cream for dessert and Java Joe's espressos or cappuccinos to while away a restful pause during shopping for all that wonderful fresh food. Last, but by now means least, the great people who dedicate their working lives to providing safely produced, organic produce for the enthusiastic crowds who flock to the Bellingham Farmers Market every Saturday, it is a happenin' place with musicians, baloon twisters, and crafts people adding to the colour and sound of Spring, Summer and early Fall Saturdays in Belingham. The growers make the market what it is, and I thank all of them for their hard work.

Fantastic, beautiful, healthy vegetables and fruits, plus flowers, crafts (some by kids, too), herbs, honey, cheeses, breads, jerky, live music, and great things to eat and drink while you wander around and decide what's coming home with you.

lots of local vendors, arts and edibles, and always a great place to meet old friends and make new ones!!

fresh organic produce, interesting crafts, friendly providers, great prepared meals, fun entertainment, beautiful building. A great place to run into friends, it's right in the middle of town so it is easily accessible. I just love the farmer's market.

It a great place to bring folks from out of town to experience our great local procuce, art, plants, jewelry, etc, etc, etc!!!

I have been selling my wears for 9 years now at the market, and have watched it grow into a wonderful space for our community to gather and support each other.

It is the place where we connect with friends, which now include many of the vendors. My kids sell products for kids vending day and this has given them a great opportunity to interact with people - a good learning experience.

I used to live in Bellingham and so enjoyed going to the Farmers Market. I still have friends and now even family that live there and would love for them to have the money to make improvements and maybe add more variety

Good atmoshere, friendly people, good surroundings, clean and a great variety from local people!

Bellinghams market has great variety and a fun atmosphere. It is well run and organized. Great vendors and awesome seasonal veggie selection! A vegan dream come true.

It is a fun and uplifting gathering place for good food, music and those young and old who believe in, and are creating a sustainable community.

Buying locally at the market encourages a smaller carbon footprint (especially if you walk or bike to the market), cuts out middle-management (aka: grocery stores) and the products you purchase are usually within a week of harvest. The market makes a large town feel small again. It's also a GREAT way to connect with friends and family.

Bellingham Farmers Market is the best market offering so much of a selection of so many things, especially fabulous fruits and veggies, artisan foods and wares, crafts, henna, and many other things. It's friendly, fun, and like going to the fair every day!

Fresh local food is the best. I love supporting real people, working in our community, who care deeply about the products they grow and craft with TLC. The Bellingham Farmer's Market has a great selection, lively community, great music and yummy eats.

The energy is unlike any other market. The BFM is diverse, lively, and HAPPY. We've got family farms, a vibrant younger generation of farmers, and hugely talented crafters. Add that to the best buskers, a gorgeous place--the Cascade Foothills to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west-- and delicious products, you can't ask for anything better.

More small markets are needed. All over the world, and should have support from all over the world to.

They have things for every member of the family and such a variety of different items.

Great product at great prices, tons of variety and diversity, awesome buskers, and excellent location.

I love going to the Bellingham Farmers Market each week to see whats new and to get great deals and amazing clothes, food and crafts. And to get my weekly fix of local music and hoola~hooping. ;)

The best beef jerky of anywhere! The people are friendly & its a fun place for kids.

Awesome produce, great vendors, yummy kettle corn, delicious ice cream, and natural beef jerky that's hotter than anything else on the planet!

I love supporting the local community of my home town! to see how much Bellingham has grown and how much fun it is to spend a morning or afternoon at the market w/ the genuine feeling of fun, fresh and lively! I can't get enough!!!

Organization is excellent, buskers are great, farmers can only sell what THEY grow (not someone else's produce from who knows where!). Great atmosphere where friends meet and gather!

It is a beautiful place where all types of people, music, and food gather to celebrate our community. Support local!

So much good organic fresh food to choose from; I'm amazed at what they can produce with such a short growing season!

Amazing selection of locally grown meat, dairy and veggies. Great local vendors and crafts. Bellingham is increasingly commited to sustainability. The city built a permanent structure for the farmers market.

Lots of local organic produce & bakery items to choose from. Excellent quality and well priced crafts, jewelry, art, clothing and furniture. Wonderful entertainment. The permanent covers make it pleasant to shop rain or shine. We bring all our out of town guests for guaranteed smiles!

Love it as a place for my kids to build connections in seeeing where their food comes from. Love to buy flowers, pottery, soap and cheese!

This Market is like a weekly festival.. It's vibrant and exciting with good eats, a wide variety of quality crafts. There's gorgeously displayed, deliciously- fresh produce and plenty of buskers to keep things really interesting.

Great to buy local, love the atmosphere, great products, and I love their graphic design/marketing.

I support the Bellingham Public market each weekend because it offers me the absolutely wonderful opportunity to support local farming in Whatcom county and because its a wonderfully fun place to meet with friends and make new ones. I LOVE that they support the creativity of youngsters by giving them the opportunity to have booths the last Saturday of every Month! How great is that!!! I also appreciate the thoughtfulness that went into the creation of the space with its recycled bridge trusses and parking lot on the weekdays...How well thought thru, no wasted space!!!

The BFM is by far the best market, both for customers and vendors. It is a community within the community, and is a unique experience.

Because they have an emphasis of hand made and local. They have the best selection of organic produce.

Because it's great to help the local folks make a living and the goods are YUMMY

My mom is a vendor and is amazing at what she does!! The people are so friendly and they love what they do! The quality in the food, body care, jewlery is outstanding! Its a good way to support and give back to the community!

Because the food is good, fresh and buying local helps support my local economy.

It has great vendors, fresh products and a great crowd of visitors.... plus damned fine coffee

I think we have one of the nicest Farmers' Markets that I have visited and that includes a bunch. The atmosphere is festive and there is a real sense of community. I believe in eating fresh and that's the best place to get it! Its fun,fun,fun!

I love the people, the music, the colors, the ambience!!! It's just a great place to spend the afternoon.

The market is centrally located, there are a variety of vendors, iIt opens up opportunities to young people wanting to participate in a retail environment and it exudes positive energy.

It helps keep our county rural by allowing local small farmers to make a living.

Its a great place to have a yummy lunch, buy fresh local produce and run into good friends. Mallards Ice Cream is a plus, too.

It is a great place for small farmers to sell their harvest. I have watched it grow from the very beginning, being a part of it myself as the E. Washington fruit vendor. It has come a long way since then and I'm proud of the job that is being done to promote it.

Amazing vendors, fun music and entertainment. Bellingham Farmer's Market offers a wide variety of food and mercantile, making it appealing to a diverse population; a wonderful place to be reminded what community is all about.

Excellent variety of merchandise and produce as well as entertainment for kids every Saturday! My favorite food vendor is Brandywine kitchen!!!!

I love the Bellingham Market! I enjoy all the great fresh and local products. The Market brings the community together. The Chef in the market is a great added cooking using all the products from the market.

Fresh, quality, mouth-watering, locally grown food is the top reason, but you really can get that other places in Bellingham. So there must be something else about OUR Market that inspires anticipation and participation every week.... Could it be the the huge variety of music that rings the market vibrantly alive with joy? Or maybe the flower, textile, pottery or jewlery vendors that pop their colors so artfully right along with the veggies? Or maybe it's the scents of myriad regional cuisines wafting this way and that enticing our noses and tastebuds? Or could it be the feel of my young grandson's hand in mine as we join other people in the rich connection of community like no other? I suspect it's all of these things that fill our senses and souls and make the Bellingham Farmers Market the BEST!

The Farmer's Market in Bellingham is absolutely incredible! I love exploring as much as I can! Great atmosphere, friendly and diverse vendors, tons of choices of food, plants and accessories!

Best place to get fresh fruits & vegies in season, and always the best season to see old friends.

It's an adventure every Saturday! I only wish I was able to attend the Weds one in Fairhaven as well! It's such a treat to walk around and be able to select your own farm fresh produce and other products. You get a chance to see the people behind the organic choices. It's so much better than trying to get some teenage employee at Haggen or Fred Meyer to even look at you when you need help! I can't wait to go this Saturday, I hope they have lots of berries!!

It's truly a great family experience. My two boys love going there for the food, music and honey sticks. We all look forward to it every Saturday. My kids love the market so much that I suggested we go camping the other Friday and their reply was, "what about the market Saturday morning".

I love the availability of fresh local produce, or plants, every weekend, and there are wonderful herbal soaps, teas and coffee, cheese, pottery, clothing, and various food vendors as well. Added benefit is the promotion of local community programs though out the year, and a kids market one Saturday a month through the summer. When you are wandering the booths, you can just feel the good energy!

Its the most beautiful farmer's market I have ever seen that captures the loveable spirit of Bellingham.

The best local produce,great crafts,fun buskers, even learn how to prepare the best the market has to offer. Grab the kids, hit the food booths, get caught up with the neighbors or make new friends and spend the day!

Locally grown, down home, creative, choice, and wholesomely healthy good foods and good times filled with good folks!

Our local farmers consistently bring us the freshest, most nutritious and hardiest veg, dairy and meats anywhere in the northwest!! Great chefs at the market and my kids love a chance to show off their hoola-hooping skills, as well. Don't even get me started on the kettle corn, food vendors and spice hut....

I love our local market and all of the vendors, farmers, performers, and artisans that share their talents and nutritious goodness with the people of our community. BFM has one of the most solid community support systems I've seen yet, and I want to contribute to the success of such a great system!

Wonderful people and produce. Love the street performers and the atmosphere of good food and friendship. My kids love to get up, walk to the market for lunch and shopping. It's a true local hang out!

Because it is local farmers selling local stuff. I like that children can sell there stuff once each month. The atmosphere is exciting, colorful, friendly, nutritious and just plan fun!

BFM promotes and supports local farmers, food producers and artists. It is well-run and organized and a center point for our community.

The Bellingham Farmers Market has been a great promoter of local food as well as being one of the best community builders in the county. Running a market on Saturdays in the Downtown and one on Wednesdays in Fairhaven has been a huge boon to the entire area.

From a marriage proposal in the beginning of the year at the market to farmers sharing some of the best local produce grown including our crafters with very unique and specialty gifts. My favorite is KIDS day they get to sale their craft items and the enjoyment seeing their smiles on their faces.

It's a fun array of great local produce, plants, clothing, crafts, music, and people...a rich buffet for all 5 of my toddler's senses!

The Bellingham Farmer's Market has become an event and place to shop for local products. The atmosphere is one of support, friendliness, care and commitment about our local farming community. It grows better every year with more and more availalble.

It's a great wholesome farmers market that I enjoy going to and the fresh pretzels and bread is amazing.

I love this market! We go every Saturday to see all of the vendors and buy our produce and breads and meats. And of course cupcakes. It just gets better and better every year!

I support the Bellingham Farmers Market because they allow our counties' many hard-working and brilliant farmers to enrich us with delicious, healthy, locally-produced food. Hurray for local food!

I support the Bellingham Farmers Market because itÂ?s a great way to bring the community together. The food tastes great, the crafts are one of a kind, and thereÂ?s always something new to see.

The Bellingham Farmers' Market has an incredible selection of local organic produce, suprior quality meats, seafood and dairy products, wonderful baked goods gorgeous flowers and plants, plus an amazing array of locally made gifts and clothing. Also this summer at the Saturday market they have a guest chef who demonstrates how to best select, store and use our local foods. Our market is not only a treat to attend but a standard on our weekly shopping route.

Locals supporting locals! Plus the vendors, the volunteers, and the staff are all such a joy to talk to. This is the best organized and most cohesive farmer's market I've ever seen. This market is headed in the right direction! Keep it up folks!

I love to buy local. I want to support the local farmers and vendors. I love the quality of fresh, local produce.

I love the local vendors and I LOVE that they have a kid's vending day. It's a great way for children to learn about business. The people are friendly and the products are quality.

The Bellingham Farmers Market is a great place to shop for food, you can find not only fruits and vegetables, but organic, grass-fed beef, pork, and poultry; sometimes eggs; gifts; plants; clothing. It's a place to see and be seen in Bellingham!

I make a point of visiting the Bellingham Farmers Market everytime I am in town. It is superior to anything in my local area.

Because it is one of the best farmer's markets in the country! Incredible produce and goods, huge variety, great local food and vendors, diverse buskers and entertainment, and strong commitment to community and sustainability. My family and I go every Saturday. My son is growing up with the Market as part of his weekend routine.

It's a great Saturday ritual...grab a cup of hot coffee, peruse the fresh produce, fill up my market basket and head home to cook something that was harvested that morning. Yum!

It's bustling and busy, but small enough to remember your name! Excellent local produce, crafts, locally roasted coffee--what's not to like?

The fresh food and great crafts...plus the people there are always welcoming and friendly!

I visit my daughter and son-in-law (Pizza'zza owners) twice a year and I really enjoy visiting the Bellingham Farmer's Market with them! It's the highlight of our Saturdays! By far the best Farmer's Market I've visited anywhere.

The quality of the produce is outstanding, always a great selection of great food and handcrafted items and also a wonderful social scene.

tons of fresh veggies and an abundance of fruit mixed with some great crafters.

So many vendors from our community come to share great harvests, advice, dry goods, great foods, and so many friends to see and make there every week. It boggles the mind how wonderful it is. Plus there's real bathrooms- not just port-a-potty's!!!

I love local food and local crafters. I can get just about everything I need at our market.

It's got a fabulous selection of every kind of fish, fruit, flower, nut, plant, veggie, mushroom, milk, cheese, and meat that can be coaxed from our fertile northwestern-most corner of the country.

This market is a wonderful venue for everyone. Great local food, vendors and artists.
