I love knowing that I am getting great, fresh food for my family and that I am helping support the families of the growers. "Know your farmer, Know your food!"

My sister in law recently moved to Memphis and is so excited about the Farmer's Market and the great folks she's met there! I can't wait to visit!

The staff of the non-profit, the vendors, the accomodations, and the quality of the products are all so fine. I have been to so many markets and this is one of the best I have ever attended. I go almost every week no matter what. Worth the trip down to the river.

It's one of the rare urban markets where you can truly get to know your farmers. It's also the heart of Memphis -- it's impossible to go without running into several of my favorite people!

It's great to get truly fresh ,organic fruit & veggies from LOCAL growers whose farms you can visit

I love getting fresh veggies and flowers. Plus, I always feel good about supporting local farmers because my grandfather used to be one himself.

Fruits, veggies, flowers, eggs, meat, bread, crafts, music, activities for kids, health information provided by wonderful caring folks.

Great facility and atmosphere, free parking, wide assortment of quality food and crafts, friendly artisans and farmers, live music.

More then just great produce... music, childrens activities, crafts, cooking demos, and lots of great people!

Makes Saturday a wonderfully special day with an opportunity to shop for great food and items from great people!

It is a great market--the products are great and the live music is the perfect touch.

The vendors and organizers are great. But what I love best is the sense of community among everyone. It is a true bright spot in my week.

Great products, great people....bought organic meat, cheese, produce, flowers, bread, honey and adopted a dog all in one morning....what more could you ask for....

I love the fresh, local food and the sense of community that is at the Memphis Farmers Market.

It's only blocks from my apartment and I can get there by riding the trolley. The vendors have good products and there's always something great for the kids.

Lots of freash veggies and always something interesting to make a the day a bit better.

Memphis Farmer's Market supports the local growers in the area. Plus it's a great destination on Saturday mornings.

I love the atmosphere and all of the produce. I will mourn the seasonal shut down next month.

Memphis Farmers Market is the best place to get locally grown/made food and goods they are also a good place to bring your kids! :]

Because the Memphis Farmers Market supports local farmers, and that is good for the earth. And, it's so much fun!

The Memphis Farmers Market is making us all better people. We feel closer to our farmers, our food, our friends, our community and our city. Memphis is rolling on the river.

Great way to support local vendors. Fun activity on Saturday morning with your husband and child!

They are doing a great job. I love that it is local. They even have dog sitting. The food is great. I'd like to see it get bigger. The entertainment is fun too,.

The food is fresh and not fully of garbage. The people are so friendly and the whole trip to the market is always a fun adventure.

It is not just a market, but a true experience! With live, local music, great entertainment for the children, a pet sitting area and food cooking demonstrations, it cannot be beat! Everyone in town loves the $15 flower bunches and amazing produce. Every year, this market has grown by leaps and bounds which is a testament to its popularity.

It is a destination in Memphis. What a great way to spend a morning. Breakfast at the Arcade and then a stroll over to the Market to get top quality produce and see your friends.

Perfect setting to purchase quality harvest at competitive prices; to see old friends, meet new ones, while listening to wonderful musicians as you stroll within the market. Feels good to be there!

I remember when there was none!!! shortly after I moved to st paul MN it was reestablished. It's beautiful. Memphis needs this.

Memphis Farmers Market is my favorite place to spend Saturday morning. They have a place to park my bicycle, my friends can leave their dog with the pet sitter and then we are free to browse the fantastic produce. The fruit and vegetables are excellent but I also like to pick up fresh-baked bread and homemade jam. The musicians that play at the market make it a very pleasant environment so it's a really great place to spend time socializing as you buy great food. I love it!

i think memphis farmers market has the best frits and vegetables, and are very fresh!!

Great variety of locally grown fruits, vegetables, herbs and flowers. Unique handmade items, honey, cheese and garden plants, plus live musical performances.

The Memphis Farmers Market not only has the most amazing produce and homemade goods, the market itself is an amazing social event on Saturdays!

Its the best! I love all of the fresh locally grown veggies and fruits and flowers. Support your local farmers!

Buy local whenever possible, save the planet, support the local economy, eat fresh, make new friends

A great way to eat locally grown food, and a great way to mingle with our neighbors. Try not to miss it!

The tomatoes are world class. Try a BLT sandwich on La Cuncina jalepena cheese bread. The white peaches were awsome, but my newfound favorite baby bok choy. yum....plus seeing all my neighbors.

I love shopping at the market, talking with farmers, and coming home with delicious food.

I love our farmer's market for the wonderful food, gorgeous flowers, awesome live music, eclectic mix of people, pet adoptions, incredible artisan bread from La Cucina, and providing a great way to spend Saturday mornings!!!!

It is not just the food and flowers but the music, coffee, a feel. A great Saturday bike ride, with flowers and baguettes sticking out of the back pack on the rice home.

Because it's great! Fresh fruits and vegetables, meats, and fresh flowers, all in the heart of downtown.

The best people, freshest fruits and vegetables and in the thriving heart of the city! Just doesn't get any better than this!

The Memphis Farmers Market is better than most of the other Farmers Markets that I have attended throughout the country.

Living in a place where BBQ & greasy southern foods are everywhere, the Memphis Farmer's Market brings fresh veggies, fruits, herbs and natural living to the families of the Memphis area. love it!

Memphis Farmers Market is the best because... well, it just is! No questions asked.

It's a community effort to bring a little more green, healthy and forward thinking to the city. Great for merchants and consumers - this market is a hub for art, music, food & good vibes. Love it!

All the farmers are local growers - within 100 miles. It is a great neighborhood gathering spot and has really helped with the revitalization of the downtown area as it draws lots of people from all over town to downtown. They also do a great job of educating consumers about eating seasonally and how to prepare the seasonal produce, meat, etc. they are buying.

Great food! Locally grown! Fun atmosphere! CSAs at Whitton Farms!! I get a great variety of local meat and produce. I love supporting local growers and trying things I would never get in a supermarket, like banana melon. Everything is fresher and I love meeting the people who grow my food.

It's a fantastically diverse community event every Saturday that our family always looks forward to. The MFM allows us to teach our 5-year-old valuable lessons about where food comes from, what kinds of food are healthy and safe, and that fruits and vegetables grow in SEASONS. Our son was quite disappointed to find that swiss chard wasn't available during a portion of the summer, but he's excited to have it back for the fall. If one only buys from the grocery store, the idea that certain things only grow well at certain times is lost, and people don't see the pride that local growers take in their efforts.

Humans are good at thinking up reasons for what they do, but I can't imagine the reason of someone that knows about MFM but hasn't gone. And is there anyone that has gone just once? MFM is like waking up with sunshine.

The Memphis Farmers Market is the most inviting, enjoyable, lovable and earth friendly place in the south, period. So much can be said, more than I have space to write, about the Board member, volunteers, vendors and participants of the saturday event. The market has revitalized an entire community in the downtown Memphis area. By raising awareness for locally grown foods and goods, the market has helped local farmers flourish, encouraged the growth of the local community and improved the cities economy. I truly love Memphis Farmers Market!!!

It is one of the most awesome things Memphis has going for it. To know that I can buy the same fruit and veggies that SOLE or some of the other great restaurants in Memphis is great. I live only 5 minutes across the bridge from Memphis and enjoy the great atmosphere of the MFM.

I love it there; they have everything I need and it is always fresh. Everyone is very helpful, especially with those new items you might not have bought in the past

I've visited many farmers markets from coast-to-coast. This one is authentic, and is just about perfect from a customer's point of view. Makes my Saturday!

We are lucky to have the option of fresh fruit and vegitables! Always fun and inspirational! Thank you

local produce rocks! great saturday morning gathering place - creates community

Bce of interactive, wholesome experience! What a wonderful way to spend your Saturday mornings w/family and friends supporting our local economy & farmers. No one should miss it! Life changing.

The Market is a great place to stroll around and buy fresh produce that you don't always get in the grocery store. Prefer buying from local farmers than from California.

The Memphis Farmers Market is a unique gathering place to mingle, buy good produce and hear great music.

lots of fresh produce and beautuful flowers. i get to see many of my firnds and neighbors. the fresh baked bread is awesome!

New resident, I feel it is very important to support local producers plus it is much more healthy for you. MFM is a beautiful place to visit and shop!

It is the best source to buy locally grown food and a terrific way to support our community.

I love the local food, it is downtown, I want to support the local economy, it is a healthy way to eat. Go MFM

Delicious fruits and vegetables that are grown here and thus don't have to be travel-tough. And tasteless.

The Farmer's Market has brought something unique and inspiring to downtown Memphis!!!

I believe in locally grown produce. It is not good for the environment (in many ways) to buy vegetables that have travelled thousands of miles to get here. I like to support local farmers; this helps the Farmers Market grow bigger.

Everything is so fresh with a wide assortment of products. Truely a wonderful place.

b/c I want to support local farmers and get fresh and ripe seasonal produce, AND it's just so much fun!

The market has a fairly stable group of very nice vendors, allowing one to have an individual relationship with a local producer. The process is mutually beneficial, allowing me as a consumer to purchase excellent fresh produce and helping the producer make a fair profit to continue his farming operation.

It is so conveniently located - right outside our front door! It also provides a nice variety of items along with entertainment and education.

Always something happening there. Good music, good fruits and veggies, and beautiful flowers. I love going there!

The city and the country come together every Saturday morning downtown to celebrate the abundance and variety of food in the Memphis area. It's a positive all the way around for our community. And that hummus from the 20/20 Diner (Southern College of Optometry) is wonderful.

They have the best selection of any farmers market in the area. And they are active in other aspects of the community, as well.

The food is fresher and when it comes to meat, I would rather buy hormone free, antibiotic free meat. I also like knowing where the meat was raised. Bigger isn't always better, so I prefer to buy from smaller, local farmers.

My wife lovessssssssssssss the veggies and makes me eat them too. Well I do love her a lot. The market is a gathering place and lots of fun for her and her buds. She is even a volunteer in those great looking green tee shirts.

It's a wonderful asset in the community, providing local farmers a venue to sell their local, organic goods and allowing residents of Memphis and beyond to eat local and eat healthy. So important for us to know where are food comes from! And there's a wonderful diversity of produce, flowers, and chicken / meat / eggs! Plus beautiful artisinal goods.

It's the best farmer's market I have been to. The vendors are excellent, the produce is excellent and the atmosphere and location is excellent!

The Memphis Farmers Market has a great variety of fruits, vegetables, plants for the garden, baked goods....all grown/produced locally. I like its promotion of responsible environmental policies. The Memphis Farmers Market is a great way to connect with the community, and I love its downtown location.

Fresh fruits & veggies Beautiful flowers Opportunity to shop local and support farmers in our area Love the ambience & unity promoted at the market Exposes me, my family & friends to new & different things It's Downtown It refreshes my spirit

I love the support of the Farmers and merchants with their enhancement for the community. Please keep up the good work.

Lots of variety, friendly people, good local entertainment, and fresh, delicious food! Awesome way to support our local economy!

The Memphis Farmer's Market provides fresh, healthy food for the community from local farmers. It boosts the economy while educating the public and supporting small business owners. It's great!

It's a wonderfully run market with truly homegrown vendors and wonderful volunteers. It's a must on Saturday mornings and the cafe is an added bonus many other markets do not offer. Our city is so lucky!

Awesome produce, beef, flowers and other products. Great way to spend a Saturday morning!

only local produce/products are sold, great community event every week, and fun.

Supporting local farmers, reducing pollution by buying local and the benefit of a community gathering together to shop outdoors each Saturday is wonderful.

The perfect Saturday: strolling to folk music in the farmers market, leaving with armfuls of fresh produce and flowers, arranging a summery bouquet on my dining table, then cooking and devouring local, seasonal veggies to my heart's content.

We appreciate lcally grown food. Our children learn where and how food is grown. We also can teach them to eat more fresh foods and less processed foods. Back to the basics: real food for a real life!

It's a wonderful sense of community. You become friends with vendors and visit with neighbors. And locally grown food makes "eating with the seasons" simple and affordable.

I love being able to walk down the street and pick up fresh vegetables, fruits, etc and know that I am supporting local businesses.

Fresh Produce, Unique Products, Beautiful Flowers & Plants and Friendly People Keep Me Going Back To MFM!

It is a wonderful location and helps my local suppliers to find new markets for their wonderful products.

Not only is it a great place to meet people and buy fresh veggies... I live across the street from it, how could I not go? :-)

Growing up in a rural area, MFM is a taste of home for me! Affordable, accessible, quality food, irreplaceable talent and artisans...the key to living well in the bustling metropolis of Memphis!!

Locally grown: better for the community, better for the Earth, better for the body...MFM offers what we ALL need in such an open, easily accessible way!

I LOVE our downtown Memphis Farmers Market!! It gets better and better every week... and every year!

The market enriches us on multiple levels from nourishment of the body to nourishment of the soul. It is a welcomed oasis of health and fresh horticultural options that is so very dearly needed in these days and times. Memphis has an embedded crown jewel every Saturday morning that shines and acts as a beacon, calling all to partake from its wonderful offerings.

It's one of the best things our city has to offer - and visiting the market is always my favorite part of the week. Our local farmers are amazing and provide such a service for those of us with a love for good, fresh food!

a great selection of the freshest local produce in a great atmosphere; a great community event and great outing for the family!

A great variety of vegetables, meat, poultry, seafood, and dairy. I hardly have to go to the grocery store! Fresh food, friendly farmers, and a great community gathering!

I enjoy the wide selection of veggies available and the friendly people at the market.
