New Albany Farmers Market

A nice little market, great location. We wandered through it much faster than I expected- because there really wasn't anything there we wanted. Only a couple produce vendors. No dog treats. Odds and ends places selling, I don't know, windows and stuff. Nothing really caught my eye.Plenty of parking nearby, the library right there (more of a draw for us.) Food trucks, which we ended up getting dinner from. Restaurants and Starbucks for your other food needs. I don't know; I was unimpressed. Some markets every other booth draws you in. This one, nope. Maybe later in the growing season there will be more I want.

Visited this past Thursday and absolutely loved the causal community vibe @ this market! I've been to ever other in central Ohio & can definitely say NA was one of my favorites. Such a great variety of vendors present. Definitely check it out! 4-7 on Thursday! My favorite vendor was Baileys Drive Inn Donuts...... so good, would HIGHLY recommend checking them out! COVID-19 Precautions: - Sanitizing stations throughout. - Most shoppers & vendors in masks - Great distance between vendor booths- Max occupancy enforced in SOME shops. Shopper Tip: 1. As with any farmers market, bring a bag or Tote, occasionally I've noticed free bags onsite but you never want to bank on that, incase you grab goodies from multiple vendors.

When I was younger I helped my father sell his produce at the Ypsilanti Farmers Market in Michigan. Gathering and preparing the fresh picked produce was tedious but my folks needed the money. Now I have been sewing small fabric bears. Those that I have shared them with love them.I have visited the NAFM and it is very friendly and diverse. Ifeel that I could be a good vendor and sell a few if not all, of my bears.However I have tried and tried to obtain a stall but to no avail.I would like to obtain a stall ASAP.

I love that New Albany continues the farmers market year round. Having it in the Phillip Heit center during the winter months is fantastic. I look forward to the first Saturday of the month during the fall and winter so I can stop by for great produce, essential oils, fresh pasta and more!

The New Albany Farmer's Market is a great way to spend a Thursday evening. It's in an excellent location, with the library open for restrooms and local restaurants nearby. There is also extra parking if you don't mind walking from the post office. I usually get zucchini, bison jerky, and various yummy things such as blueberries. As always you should arrive early to the farmer's market to get the best selection, but there are plenty of good things left at closing. There are usually two food trucks, Mojo Tago and Pitabilities, plus a lemonade stand and a hotdog stand. There is also a good variety of products represented: fruit, veggies, meat, cheese, baked goods, health products, honey, and jelly. We go every week and have an excellent time! Highly recommend it!

Love going to the farmer's market in NA each Thursday in the summer! I'm sad that this year (2014), the granola lady isn't there (tears!). However, there is plenty to choose from and they seem to keep new vendors coming each year. You'll find your typical fruits and veggies, of course. Be sure to browse around and sample first because some vendors' prices are quite a bit higher than others for the same things. You can also find root beer floats, natural kettle corn, kicked-up dessert apples, honies and jams, meats and food trucks (usually MoJo TaGo and Pitabilities). There's a stand with pies from the Pie Man that are okay (crust doesn't have much taste so try and get a sample). My only gripe about going is that sometimes, people think it's a dog park and there are too many animals. Keep them at home--the space is not vast and even leashed animals can get out of control, especially when the dogs start barking at each other. Some vendors take plastic. Otherwise, a great time.
