Reviews for: Market Square Farmers' Market

This farmer's market has the best selection and attitude of any market in town. If you love farmer's markets, then Market Square is a must see!

Market Square Fresh Market is incredible. Its growth has helped downtown and the layed back feel is awesome! Love it!!

It is awesome -- a fun vibe, tons of local produce and local artists as well as children playing in water fountains while little groups of musicians gather to share their music under the big oak trees. A great Saturday event!

for locally grown fresh vegetables, fresh baked goods and sometimes even cool jewelry.

It's so much fun to visit on Saturday. Fresh veggies, local crafts, many friends.

Great variety and makes us feel like a big city plus close to our rural roots at the same time

I love the atmosphere, the variety, and the opportunity to meet and visit with people.

A healthy mind in a healthy body. It starts with what you put into your body. Eating healthy keeps you healthy!

anything made locally rules! everyone should support there local farmer's market. especially one like ours.

I used to shop there when I lived in Knoxville. Wonderful variety and lots of fun!

Love fresh, raw, and green! Local farmers and homemade items. Community bonding!

Love the selection, atmosphere and location. You can make the day of it in downtown Knoxville, and there is a real community/neighborhood vibe.

Lots of vendors with variety and quality produce. Everything local! nothing mass produced.

I love going to the Market Square Farmers Market because it is easily accessible and close to home. I can bring my dog and as we walk through the square pick out my locally grown and made products.

Farmers get to sell in an urban market. It's true locavare opportunity. We love to visit when we are in town to visit family. A great asset to the community and a draw for visitors!

The produce is the absolute very best I have ever tasted. Nothing else compares in quality or taste.

It is great! Lovely, interesting, safe, creative, healthy, people interacting. It's a good thing!!

It is awesome. Everything is very fresh and the vendors are extremely friendly. There is a wife variety of products.

Great farmers. Good variety of food available. Wonderful location that has a long historical tradition as a farmers' market. Lots to do on the Square in addition to food shopping. It's also contributes to bringing customers to downtown businesses. Convient free parking. Attracts great people! All around asset to the community.

It's local, great selection of fresh produce, and I love to support our farmers.

it's fun, and I get growing tips from the farmers, and I get to bring home new things to try!

It's local, it's fresh, and it's a nice change from the chain stores as far as quality.

The crops and other products are always fresh and unique. It is a pleasure to shop and browse there.

Knoxville's Market Square Farmers' Market is one of my favorite ways to spend a Sat. morning. The atmosphere is calming and invigorating at the same time. The fresh food is always a treat. There are many familiar faces to make one feel so welcome. I recommend anyone to join the fun and freshness of this special place.

Great place for local products to sell, brings people into downtown, makes for a great outing.

Wonderful variety of great, fresh food in the heart of downtown Knoxville - where it's needed most!

Fresh produce, delicious baked goods, organic/healthy products, great vendors and the opportunity to support the growers/producers.

The space plan of the market is great, very user friendly and the all of the vendors are excellent to do business with.

like to eat healthy and also support our farmer's who are working hard to grow clean produce....besides, it tastes so much better! Market Square Farmer's Market is the best in Knoxville as to variety and goodness.

The produce is always fresh, organic and the flavors of the veggies are much better than the mass produced stuff in the grocery store. In addition, I like supporting local,small farmers instead of corporate food factories.

It's the only place to buy local,organic, grass fed, humanely raised meats. And Dave from River Ridge farm is the nicest person on the planet....so supporting him feels great.

There are Squares, Farmers and Markets. Here you combine all three for a winner! Peace be with you GB

I love that the market allows shoppers to use an EBT card, which makes local and organic food more affordable.

great local food and crafts as well as a chance to support a healthy environmentÂ?and it has helped to revitalize the Square.

I grew up with access to a my granmother's wonderful garden don't have that anymore but this is the next best place !!!!

Because they support our community. I believe in them because they offer locally grown/made products and I just never know what kind of goodie I'm going to find.

Because they have done such a fabulous job of building a great market from scratch!

this is my community. these are my neighbors. this is where i work. these are the people who feed me. these are the people i serve coffee. these are people who care.

Wonderful local food. Knowledgeable and friendly vendors. Market Square is called Market Square for a reason, right?

I live in LaFollette and have never shopped there, but anything that supports local people, local farmers is worthwhile and should be maintained!

Because it is a network of farmer's who really engage with the people who buy from them and keep them coming back every week and have great knowledge about what they grow.

A wonderful selection of quality products combined with a great atmosphere, and some amazing people. Always a great time, and ALWAYS a great meal or two as a result!

The variety of produce it provide is fantastic and would not be available anywhere else. The vendors are knowledgeable. The location is beautifully located in the heart of downtown Knoxville with great parking.

It helps to promote local growers, and gives everyone an opportunity to support them. Not to mention, the quality is beyond exceptional!

Because my friend Stan asked us all to vote so that you'd win a prize...I use your sister markets in West Knox as they are closer to me and cause me to use less fuel each week, but agree with the local foods, healthy eating lifestyle/mentality.

Because it's LOCAL! Why buy imported mysteriously grown "food" when you can support your community and know exactly waht your getting and where it comes from. Not to mention the lower environmental impact by not having to ship food from 100's of miles away! Also having the pleasure of being in beautiful downtown Knoxville!!!

It's the best place to buy delicious locally grown produce and grain fed local beef -and you can meet the farmers! There are lovely crafts, and a great atmosphere. Kids can play in the fountains, parents can dine at the outdoor cafes --it's a wonderful place to spend a Saturday morning.

It is a wonderful way to support our local farmers and growers and it also brings attention to our downtown businesses.

I enjoy the festive atmosphere of Market Square Farmers' Market and the chance to purchase fresh goods and at the same time help local growers. It's nice to know where your food comes from. The market also attracts large numbers of visitors to downtown and promotes the local economy.

I support the Market Square Farmers' Market because it supports local farmers and provides our community with social and economic connections with the people who grow healthy food for us.

because it gives people a reason to get out of their houses and do something healthy, like WALK, and eat a fresh carrot....it's just good Ju-Ju...

The food is fresh, crisp and clean. I love it. Plus, the farmers are the friendliest in the state!

Local farmers, local product! Great quality and freshness. Support the local economy. Great atmosphere!

It's a wonderful place to get fresh produce, bread, and handmade items. With no grocery downtown, people who live and work downtown would have to head for the suburbs to have access to these things otherwise. Also makes downtown a lot more interesting and festive.

It's awesome! I always find what I want and even some things I didn't know I wanted!

The market is just that, a market. People, produce, and pure fun all come together in a way that not only supports the local agrarian culture, but also the culture of a city. It serves as a focal point for civic pride and for the born-again, historic center that is Market Square.

It is nice to spend a Saturday morning shopping in this market to find home grown vegetables and baked goods. Having this offered to our community is such an asset! It brings people to the downtown area and encourages not only me but everyone to shop at home.

has the most interesting items and people! Music! Bike rides! Cultural experiences! the Bomb!

It provides wonderful produce to a city that has a population that can really use healthy choices.

It is truly the "heart" of our City, hisotorically, and today as well, a place to meet old friends, shop, celebrate, and make new friends -- a place to showcase talent, both famous, and about-to-possibly become famous. A year-round place of activity -- to celebrate spring and summer, and a skate-ing rink in the winter. You have to come join us, and you will agree. Come to Knoxville's Farmer's Market with cosmopolitan attractions to add fine flavor to the produce and producers who are like family to us!

It is such a joy to peruse the Farmers' Market each Saturday. It brings fun people downtown and some good old fashioned "hustle and bustle."

My daughter lives in Knoxville and loves that market. She sends me pictures everytime she visits there of all the special things they have to offer.Makes me kind of jealous that we don't have that in my hometown of Wilson, NC. My daughter is very interested in home made and home grown and this market feels both of those needs.

EVERYONE SHOULD SUPPORT THEIR LOCAL FARMERS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AND REDUCE OUR FOOTPRINT ON THE ENVIRONMENT WHERE FOOD IS CONCERNED!

It is a very diverse market in a cool location. Gives me another reason to get out of Oak Ridge on the weekend.

I live downtown so I generally support most of the activities and events that go on in Market Square that bring the better side of the community out.

Excellent array of local fruits, veg and plants. Local artisans with beautiful creations. Located in a picturesque Southern Market Square where my own great grandparents sold their own produce and cured meats. Interesting restaurants, boutiques, galleries and water spouts to cool your feet in all on the square and a great library 2 blocks over make this a full and fun day out.

They have the biggest selection of locally grown, chemical free, grassfed beef, pork and poultry as well as local organic produce. Prices are fair. Baked goods are amazing. I go every Saturday morning.

I lived in Knoxville for many years, and the Farmers' Market is one thing I miss the most.

it builds community ,supports local economy , rewards independence and strong work ethics .... all of which are part of what this country was originally founded and built on and have become diluted or eliminated to our detriment.

Locally grown produce is the best, especially when it comes from East Tennessee!

It is a great way to support local farmers and crafters, helping the environment and strengthening the communicty

best dang farmers' market in the Southeast. local folks, local food, local money.

I love going to the Farmer's Market. Market Square harkens back to the days when down town was a vital part of the city. During the Seventies and Eighties, I remember seeing downtown die, with grocery and department stores closing down, leaving behind empty buildings and a feeling of despair. Market Square brings a sense of life back to down town. It also makes a wonderful pre-game stop on UT Saturdays!

Going to the Market Square Farmers' Market is my favorite thing of the week. Me and my girlfriend walk through all the vendors to see whats in season. There are so many choices that we often get things we would never imagine buying in the grocery store. Half the fun is trying to find out what to do with what we bought when we get home. (Ex. Kohlrabi)

Its small, but growing each year and can use the money to jump to the next level.

Because it has brought new life to our downtown. I love seeing the crowds it draws every Wednesday & Saturday as well as the creativity it inspires.

It's a really cool friendly place where you can get the freshest produce and meats, and best home-made baked goods, in the Knoxville-Knox County area.

It is a great way for private vendors to get business, and it allows shoppers to buy fresh fruits and vegetables straight off the farm!

Local character and flavors are uniquly interesting and complimentary to our Appalachian heritage.

I want to support local farmers and my community! Plus all the food is so fresh, unlike those at a grocery store.

Because I love the fresh veggies and wonderful vendors! Market Square is a relaxing place to enjoy a Saturday morning.

It the best place to buy beautiful, tasty, local vegetables. The local arts and crafts are amazing and inspire my own creativity. The people are so nice and the community feeling is wonderful.

Everyone needs to support their local growers - it's a 'no-loser' situation: keep money here/encourage farming/create a smaller carbon footprint/eat healthy/etc.

I love the variety and the atmosphere and supporting local growers and artisans.

Because they have the best prices, the BEST produce, and it has been such an awesome community building organization. Something that Knoxville DESPERATELY needs!

We love the freshness of everything and want more and more local food. Like the bumper sticker says, "Thousands of miles fresher!" Strange Honey Farms produces the greatest dark wildflower honey. More vitamins than lighter honey and helped us recover from the Swine flu!!!

Folks always need access to fresh produce and farmers should always have an outlet to market their wares locally.

location, selection, and quality!! downtown is so revived and the market is so key to this!!

It has revitalized downtown Knoxville, and my grandmother sold eggs on Market Square and it is wonderful to see this space being used again!

It's downtown, it's cool, it's historic and they've got awesome foods and crafts!

Because, even though my parents live in the "country", they cannot get farm fresh organic produce without seeking it out, but I can get on my bicycle, ride a few blocks, and here it is, brought literally to my front doorstep in downtown K-town!

Downtown Knoxville is amazing! And, the freshness, the arts & crafts, the joie de vivre of the Market Square Farmers' Market is a lovely, perfect pursuit.

Charlotte does a great job. Whenever I visit Knoxville I must go! Best produce.

Because they provide delicious produce and local crafts as well as fun events to watch!

I go once a week, sometimes twice a week, to get fresh, chemicall free vegetables, meat and bread. Besides I support this kind of Market Square growth.

Local, fresh produce is available 5 minutes from my home, and Market Square is so much fun just for strolling and shopping on a beautiful Saturday morning.

It's come from such humble beginnings to a thriving place to meet with people and get the best produce around.

I think it is a tremendously healthy thing for our city to be involved in and it promotes community!

Because it's helping the 'little man' and bringing the community together with local crafters and farmers.
