Bloomington Community Farmers' Market

“@bloomingtonmarket may be the best farmers market I’ve been too (sorry Raleigh but you’re a close second). Some honourable mentions for our first go round. @muddyforkbakery They mill their own grains and bake in a wood fired oven. I’m excited to take a baking lesson there one day. @mkonofarm “swinery” doing pork raising right. Excited to try your products. I am a pork chop snob and there is nothing better than a thick cut excellent cut. @breadandrosesgardens Excited to try your sauerkraut. If you know anything about Indiana you know there is lots of corn here. The fact there was a line for McCullough’s Sweet Corn has me intrigued. Next time I’ll give it a try. The onion lady was so just the sweetest person. I may only buy onions from her when in Indiana. Honestly every urban kid should have an opportunity to come to an area like Bloomington to see how food is grown and meet farmers that care. They would learn that farming is a great and noble profession. AND there is nothing more delicious than food bought at the farmers market. #farmers #midwest #hospitality #food #produce #farmeggs #pork #porkchops #farmersmarket #bakery”

“First time going to this farmers market on Sept 2nd at 10:30am. There are a TON of vendors. Honestly, the layout doesn't really work to make sure you see all vendors. There were a couple of vendors on the sides of the market and back 3rd row that had no customers near it. The awning seems great for vendors (instead of a tent, but the majority of them were still in the sun). Plenty of customers! I found parking on the street nearby. Plenty of fruits, vegetables, flowers, honey, cheese, meats, bread, jam and syrup, etc. I chose a flower bunch, cheese curds, sourdough bread, jam, watermelon, peppers, lettuce, a massive onion, etc. They continue at this location through October. Then, they switch to the winter market location through March.”

“I love our local farmers market so much. The highlight of my weekend is spending Saturday morning taking a walk here with my husband. We love to try new foods and check out new vendors. I highly recommend anything from Applerose, Bivis Tamales (with the mango salsa!), and the coconut cold brew from The Inkwell. The people are great, and it's so nice to get out of the house, into the community, and to get some good eats.”

“Went to the Bloomington Community Farmer's Market on a Saturday morning and it was fantastic! We bought some fresh produce, baked goods and other products. Everything was fresh, wholesome and delicious! The vendors were very nice and easy to interact with. I highly recommend a visit to this great farmer's market right in Bloomington!”

“My wife and I are visiting my sister. We came to the farmers market to get produce for the 4th of July celebration. There were so many vendors offering tomatoes, cucumbers, peaches, potatoes, rhubarb, etc... we bought some peaches, tomatoes, green onions, chard, and cucumbers. Can't wait to eat salad for dinner yummy.”

“Absolutely stunned by the wide selection of fresh produce here! If Pinoy Garden Cafe is there, prepare yourself for the best taco of your life! Pie First Bakery was also serving up some beautiful and delicious tarts. I also enjoyed the location itself, with some great pieces of art to explore.”

“A great place to get local fresh produce, food, art, and more! Live music and a lively atmosphere. A wonderful time :)”

“I thought it was going to be bigger but there was only a small stands and I’m wasn’t so lucky I guess:( I brought couple staffs (sourdough bread, onions, chili plants, honeys, coffee and stuffs and also paid $16 for 5 tomatoes 😂) but it’s about experience!”
