Reviews for: Bernalillo Farmers' Market

I'm writing this review as a vendor. This is a great local farmer's market with good food to eat there or take home. The pavilion in the park is an awesome venue to sell at because you are always in the shade and protected from the elements. But, yes, it would be nice if the township provided some trees around the pavilion to make it cooler. The vendors i sold with last year were wonderful, and so were the leaders of the farmer's market. Besides home grown food and home baked goodies, you can find fresh eggs, ristras of Chile, crafts and a team who cooks (on the spot) a different treat/snack to share with everyone. They also give out recipes for what they cook. It's great. So all you vendors out there who are wondering if you should participate or not, I'm telling you, join us and have a lot of fun while you make some money on the side. Lets make this a great farmer's market together.

It is a small market but has improved over the years. A wide variety of home grown produce and baked goodies are always available. It serves the small town of Bernalillo, the exurban area of Placitas and several Pueblos.

It's within walking distance from my home, some of my neighbors and some of my students parents from the nearby Pueblo of San Felipe sell there. There are plants and terrific baked goods for sale as well as fresh produce. The sellers are generally very friendly. The only problem is there is no shade. We could really use the money to provide some trees or other shade structures.

Growers from several small villages and Indian pueblos join with Bernalillo growers to sell local produce that is pesticide free and organically grown. We get corn from Indians who use seed that has been handed down for generations with no worries about it being GMO! We get local chile and pinto beans as well as the usual supply of in-season vegetables. Some growers bring homemade tamales and burritos and hot fruit pies still hot from the oven--yummy!
