Reviews for: Vancouver Farmers Market

It has a great long season, opening in March and running through late October/early November and has helped revitalize our downtown area.

Friendly vendors, festive atmosphere, wonderful food booths, local products are outstanding, easy access, beautiful setting...what more could I ask for in a Farmer's Market? I take all our out-of-town visitors to the Farmer's Market. I love showing it off.

It is a nice atmosphere and lots of great local food and friendly people to talk to.

Great produce, great quality, reasonable prices and it support the local economy!!! And it's great people watching!

The Farmers Market is the BEST!!!!!! I've been going since it first opened in 1989 and I was a child. I am now an adult and LOVE taking my daughter to the market. It has organic fruits and veggies, yummy food to eat, and great local artists and crafts. It is the best in ALL!!!!

best place to get teh freshest fruits and veggies... man and its cost effective... the stores have less quality and more $$$... the market... less $$$ and better quality Thank you so much!

It has a little bit of everything, everyone is friendly & helpful. I can usually find what I'm looking for. And I like to buy locally, support small local businesses & buy fresh produce, flowers & crafted items. We have been trying to grow a few things in our own garden, and they are a great place to get the plant starts & helpful tips to grow our own veggies.

so convenient and filled with wonderful, fresh and unique offerings....why go anywhere else?

I attend the Vancouver Farmers Market on almost a weekly basis. There are always so many different people, vendors, and entertainment down there. I always have such a fun time looking at all of the things people bring down every weekend. There's always beautiful fresh flowers, fruits and vegetables. And a really awesome vendor that my boyfriend and I buy our dog "pupcakes" from every weekend.

It's fabulous. Lot's of variety & I usually see someone I know. Plus there is always a fun event going on in the park next to the market.

I'm all in favor of supporting local businesses. The local produce is wonderful!

The Farmers Market offers a variety of fresh veggies and fruits plus incredible handcrafted art. And the food vendors offer foods you normally don't have access to everyday. It's a wonderful community event.

I just moved here 7 months ago and I love that the market is open not only on Saturdays, but on Sundays and Friday evenings as well! There are always wonderful live performers and I love the wooden coin system! Definetly one of my favorite things about living in Vancouver!

The Vancouver's Farmers Market holds a great atmosphere. I love the variety of talent and food there. Every food booth is different and it's like having different pieces of the world there. People are nice and comforting. And I enjoy working there as much as I love being there!!!

I plan on moving there. I visited during a rainy day and still found it wonderful!

I love the variety of goods available and I love how helpful all the vendors are when you question them. They're always willing to share their knowledge and offer tips.

I love the Vancouver Farmer's Market for the craftsmanship, company, excellent produce, and gorgeous flowers. The sense of community that this market brings makes it a weekly destination. LOVE IT.

Because I love the fresh produce and the night farmers market on Fridays 5-9 pm. Also, the location at Esther Short Park is perfect to stroll around in.

The produce is wonderful and long-lasting, the craftsmanship is unique, and the people are friendly.

For purchasing locally grown fresh produce that I can't get in the grocery stores and to support my local farmers

Great location parkside! Local vendors that include food, great artistry and plants

I always find the produce I'm looking for at the market, and it seems to bring loads of people out and supports our little downtown community.

Love the fresh fruit and veggies every weekend! Local and affordable :) And some of the best tamales I have ever eaten. Plus, great yard plants in the spring. And you can bring your dog! Mine loves it - there are always water bowls and lots of cookies!

It is a very friendly clean fun place to take the family! I love seeing the new crafts and enjoying the local produce!

Wonderful assortment of fruits and vegetables, great food and first class crafts for sale. Perfect Sat/Sun morning stroll. Fantastic festive atmosphere. Gorgeous setting!!

Great vendors, it's very organized and there is such a variety of foods to sampleI I came for the wonderful produce, but I kept coming back for the experience of meeting new people and finding exceptional treasures.

There's a closer one nearby but we travel the 25 miles because of the variety and quality of the foods, the location, and the wonderful people. Not to mention Portland, OR is just across the river so we usually make a day-trip out of it.

The food at the market is fabulous!! I can't wait to go each week! The people are so nice and friendly!

There is a wide variety of products available at the Vancouver Farmers Market, as well as a wide variety of vendors. The vendors are super friendly, and provide quality produce and products. In the seven years we've been patrons, we've had only one unacceptable product, and the vendor gladly refunded our money. Best of all, it's a 'small-town' atmosphere. It genuinely deserves to be Farmers Market of the Year!

I love the mix, the food, the location, the hours, and I even don't mind the dogs. It is a great use of public space and the public pours into it. I love the diversity of sellers and buyers. I love that market!

I love the fresh fruit and vegetables. There are many different vendors to choose from. I take my two daughters every weekend to pick up their favorite fruit.

I think it is a great place to get fresh fruits and veggies. Also love the different shops and food vendors.

This is a delightful market ... just big enough to be interesting and diverse, yet small enough to navigate and easily enjoy. Our local folks and the visitors they bring are friendly, polite and fun to share the venue with. And to top it all off, we have good parking facilities as well as loads of on-street parking ... AND, TaDa ... Ester Short Park on the boundary for beauty and a lovely playground!

It is fresh, wonderful and an adventure to create recipes from what you find. If that recipe does not work next time buy something else and do it again. Fresh is wonderful

I love to go to the market as it is an activity that has no entrance fee, leaving more money in the pocket to spend on the goodies - especially the living plants. Could do without the dogs though.

I love all the choices, and the people...the best is the people!! and the dogs. I buy the flowers, the nuts and food and produce...it is awsome, the best

Very much enjoy the ability to buy wonderful produce and other goods ... locally. It is a nice way for everyone to support each other!

The atmosphere is wonderful. Vendors are very helpful and courteous and I can tell that lots of work goes into this event.

My kids and grandkids live in Vancouver and the Farmers Market is close to their home. They love the fresh produce and having such a good selection of seasonal foods. When we visit them it's one of my "must do's" while I'm there. I feel it's great for the community also.

Love the produce and activities they have each weekend. Conveniently located close to my home and it is a good place for the girls to meet and talk. WOuld love to see it thrive in the years to come.

We love the downtown vancouver area and want to see it thrive like places in Portland. ( pearl district )( hawthorne street). Buying local is always best!!! supporting the community is even better!

We love going to the Vancouver Farmers Market and look forward to the grand opening every spring. The vendors are friendly and creative, whether they are selling food, flowers, or produce. We have been to several different farmers markets in the area and have found that the Vancouver market has the freshest produce and most beautiful floral bouquets anyone could ask for. The fact that it's pet friendly just adds to the flavor.

I support Vancouver Farmers Market because it brings the community together and offers a variety of cultural differences all under "one roof". It also brings nostalgia to the commmunity, making history, and many happy memories;) Thank you for asking!

It is simply the best way to spend a Saturday morning! We love the produce and food and our daughter loves dog-watching!

This is a wonderful way to support farmers in our area and to have a great time doing it. Produce, flowers, food, plants, and many other products are all first class, and an excellent value. Our Farmers' Market is an entertaining way to shop for the very freshest foods and have fun doing it.

We can always count on fresh produce, fun for the kids and awesome music. It makes a frown turn upside down on a rainy day :-) Our community helps us and we help them, can't get any better then that!

Fantastic stuff every weekend, family friendly and great stuff to spend money on!

I love taking my children to the market. They love looking at all the different stands and what they have available. The fresh fruit stands and the Kettle Corn are their favorite. It is a great place to spend the day!

I want to keep our local growers able to supply us at the Farmers Market with their excellent quality of fruits and veggies. There is NO store in a 100 mile radius that has the quality that our farmers bring to the market consistantly. I appreciate the work they do and I support them 100%!

It is in a beautiful park, has great food, music, and art! Is simply wonderful to be there.

i love the variety of local products, food and non-food; friendly, hard-working vendors; beautiful park with lots of special events; great food and beverages; local musical talent; and amazing people-watching. i especially like the tamales, pete's paella, bill the mushroomer/forager, the flowers and plants, lamb and the rug weaver. i miss linda's crab.

Great atmosphere, friendly people, beautiful plants, flowers and produce! PLUS I can bring my dog! I meet new people and get to try out new things everytime I go!

Introduced to me by a former aikido teacher-friend of mine, Arnica Montana is reknown for it's homeopathic powers as a natural, non-steroidal topical anti-inflammatory. It's also effective for healing bruises. Yesterday I sprained my ankle so am heading back to the Farmer's Market tonight get the most concentrated form I've ever found, produced right here in Clark county in the form of a sports massage lotion! Nice to know that I can buy something locally-produced that also happens to be an exclusive the Vancouver Farmer's Market!

I can find everything I want there. If I miss it on Saturday, I know it's there on Sunday. Great vendors, great flowers, great produce and LAMB!

This is a great Farmer's Market. It's family friendly, located at a beautiful park. The products are outstanding and the people are dedicated.

the market is so well presented, the layout is easy to manuver and their is a variety items, foods and vegetables. It is very beautiful to go to.

I love to buy local. It is fun. The best fruit I have ever tasted. And the Hot food vendors ROCK!

It is local, the produce is fresh and there are beautiful flower bouquets to take home and enjoy.

It is a very relaxing place to come shop for local produce and gifts. The people are wonderful and the food vendors are great ! There is something for everyone and we love buying our foods locally and supporting the community that works so hard to provide it. Great place to meet people too !

I believe in buying locally! There is wonderful produce grown and I'm tired of seeing developers eating up farm land. The farmers need to be supported

Local. Local. Local. Fresh, Fresh, Fresh, not like the corporate stuff you get from the big box stores

Because it is a great place to take the kids and get some wonderful fresh fruits and veggies.

ONCE YOU'VE TASTED THEIR PEACHES AND STRAWBERRIES, YOU'RE SOLD! FRESH FOOD, FLOWERS AND AFFORDABLE FUN! ALSO A FEELING OF SUPPORT FOR THE COMMUNITY. GOOD STUFF!

its my weekly shopping trip to fresh fruits and vegetables.....what could be better! An absoulute must for some Paya Pete and fresh flowers in the house.

I have been taking my kids there since they were babies for wonderful fresh fruit and a good time. I am now taking my granddaughter there for the same fun stuff.

I love the friendly atmosphere. The entertainment is a wonderful way to bring our family together without the worry of breaking the bank, and of course who could forget the fresh produce!

They've just added a Friday market and now I can buy all the lovely fresh local produce on my way home from the office without having to make an extra trip on the weekend.

Quality produce, plants, food, and artisan crafted treasures. Our market has enough vendors for variety but the market is on a scale that is approachable. Each market day is a Vancouver event!

It is wonderful, full of variety and lots of fun as well as a great locations for family and children alike....

I love the local produce in the summer. The flowers are always beautiful. Going to the market gives an opportunity to meet neighbors, see local products and enjoy the sunshine.

Love the market and it has grown into a very well rounded market...I like it's success story. The vendors are great and there is always a nice variety of locally grown fruits & veggies. The setting is a historical park in the Vancouver, WA downtown area. Local festivals are also held in conjunction with the market that is open each weekend Saturday and Sunday.

This is a large market, with wonderful selections of both produce and specialty booths (jewelry, ethnic foods, planters, etc.). The location is beautiful!

A truly awesome aray of fruits, vegetable, vendors of all kinds! The produce is amazing, the people are great! We go almost every weekend.

Getting to know the local vendors and support the local economy is in all of our best interests! Support our neighbors, support our local farmers, support local artists -- the Vancouver Farmers Market has brightened our city!

I love the Market it has the freshest produce and it always tastes better the the supermakets and it's better for my family.

the have the best fresh fruits and vegetables that i feed my children and grandchildren. we go to enjoy wholesome family time at the farmers market on saturday afternoons it is enjoyed by my youngest grandchild and all ages up to our oldest family member who is 86

The Farmer's Market has a great variety of artists, farmers, food vendors, and the size is makes it feel like a market.

So much to choose from. It feels good to support local farmers and feed my family in such a good way.

I like the produce is fresh and local. There is always a showcase of local talents and artists. We enjoy going there.

Great location close to my house. Good variety of vendors and nice people everywhere.

It is one of the best Farmer's Markets that I have shopped. So many great vendors and what a wonderful place to hold a market - a park!

Great fresh produce, fresh and tasty hot food, gorgeous flower arrangements, the young balloon guy is phenomenal, and there are unique arts and crafts that you won't find anywhere else (AND you won't see the same stuff over and over again -- they keep it new and unique).

My family goes to the market every other week and it is always fresh and different everytime. My sister's favorite item is the fudge and I usually purchase flowers for our home. The donuts are great too! Bread, fruit and vegatables are something that I buy almost everytime there. Will probably check out the Friday evening market. We also attend music in the park.

Clean, great QUALITY crafts, reasonable prices, fun for the whole family, great food and FRESH local produce!

I think the Vancouver Farmers Market has the most unique things and the best produce.

They are friendly, upbeat (usually lots of music) and are open on Fridays 5pm-9pm which is nice for those of us who work weekends:)

The best produce and flowers around. Can't buy anything like it in the grocery stores.

It has one of the best selections of fresh flowers andf ruit that I've ever seen.

Awesome market ! they have wonderful fresh and juices fruit. I gone to alots of farmer market around the area but ours is the best ........

It has a wonderful selection of local fruits and vegetables which are sold by the kindest vendors.

Vancouver's Farmers Market rocks!! Our vendors are the friendliest and their produce is the freshest. The local artisans also have exceptional wares. We love seeing what's new every few weeks. I can't say enough about how much fun a morning at "the Market" can be. It's a real treat and my family loves our market.

I haqve been to several fatmers markets and this is by far the best and it supports local community events

We can't let individual farms and the families who work and own them die. They need our support because the large agro-business interest is trying very hard to take their share of the market too. It is a pleasure to eat fruit and vegetables that have taste. It is wonderful to observe the "American salad bowl" working at the market; the Hmong families with the flowers, the Mexican farmers with their fruit and vegetables, the food vendors from Russia, Croatia, Eastern Europe, etc. also the local artists coming from varied backgrounds. It is all so colorful and refreshing and deserves our whole hearted support.

I love the Vancouver, WA Farmer's Market! It has fabulous food to eat as well as organic veggies and flowers to buy and artwork, too. The people are friendly and best of all there are all kinds of beautiful dogs enjoying the market with their human families. It's a lovely place to be!

I love to head to the market on saturday mornings. It's a great place to go to get out of the house and see many vendors. There is also a great park right there to relax with the family and let the kids play!

Our market has wonderful produce and some really fun venders. It's a terrific and much looked forward to family experience for us.

Vancouver Farmers Market it's the best! It's fun with lots of wonderful things to look at flowers, plants,crafts. The food is really yummy. I go there ever week..

Farmers market Vancouver is the best because they provide fresh homegrown produce along with fantastic arts and crafts made by locals, and they provide a family fun environment full of excitement and joy every week!

I support Vancouvers Farmer Market because it brings the community together at one place to experience different types of food, etc. People work hard so that customers like myself has a nice time when I go there.

The Vegetables arealways Fresh the Fruit is always ripe & the Vendors are so Nice. The vendors that sell prepared foods, always have hot & delicious foods. The artisan's have beautiful work at reasonable prices.
