Phinney Farmers Market

This was my first time at PRFM. It's quite small but quaint. A few familiar vendors were here. I picked up some lovely peppers, lemon cucumbers and summer squashes. I loved the mixed organic pepper vendor since I haven't seen them at any other market. I've only been to lake forest park fm and shoreline this season. I frequent ballards fm but that was before summer produce started rolling in. There are 4 food vendors, a couple of drink vendors and 2 ice cream/popsicle vendors. A nice variety. I think there was also a wine/beer garden. I didn't go in to look. I like that this farmers market had ample parking in a lot behind the market itself. If I was around the neighborhood, I'd drop in again. I probably wouldn't go out of my way to drive all the way down here again for it though.

This particular farmers market is probably my favorite of all of the Seattle ones. I've been to just about all of them but so far this one stands out the best for me. Taking an early Friday afternoon off from work, this place was a perfect spot to go for a walk.First of all, it's a charming & rather small corner neighborhood location; not too noisy nor does it feel stuffy from large crowds and/or other sources of sensory overload (nearby busy streets, honking, sirens, playgrounds, etc). Slightly in the shadow of the Phinney Center building, situated on a slight hill incline lends itself a neat character surrounded by nice trees. Don't worry about parking super close - if you get a spot a block or so away, it's a nice walk! Although, I think they have 1-2 temporary spots up front - those are good to at least check if you're handicapped.My main joy came from the amount of local regional organic farms AND their variety! Mixed cauliflower, [seasonal] figs(?!), black/red/white bean varieties (protein & fiber, tho!), plethora of dark, leafy greens & herbs (rich in nutrients - yum!), a creamy(?) red potato (#HCLF!) and other goodies. Shout-outs to The Root Cellar, Farmhouse, Tonnemaker, Stoney Plains and I think maybe 1-2 others I forgot. Wonderful interacting with the farmers, too!Thumbs up, yo!

Cute, smaller market! Really good way to spend a Friday evening. Can't wait until June for the opening!

I happened to be in the area last Friday so I found some street parking and hopped on down to this quaint little market located at the Phinney Community Center. This not not a large set-up, but they have pretty much everything - including tons of amazing fruit, veggies, meats, and homemade goods. There was a pretty decent selection of food vendors, too - including many with vegan options, which was much appreciated as I'm doing a plant-based eating challenge currently. But my best bite of the day were organic strawberries from one of the farm vendors. I ate all the strawberries before I even left the market! Yum!

Small but stocked, I've been shopping the summer farmers market at the PNA for a decade. It's refined what it offers to bring both a well-rounded shopping experience, and a local destination for couples or families. Dinner and fresh produce, with buskers and demonstrations.

Please, please compare prices. Even if a farm stand is RIGHT NEXT to another, their prices can vary for the SAME organic food item very widely. That being said, this place has a playground that would amuse kids 4 and under, is dog friendly, and has great ready-made food available for making this a shopping AND dinner experience. If you are too cheap for a slice or a very tasty looking grilled cheese "experience," there are samples a plenty from each booth, from exotic and yummy sounding preserves and spreads to fresh bread and produce. Hello, new summer grocery spot!P.S. Parking was a cinch-- we got a spot in the lower lot right away and passed several decent spots on Phinney Ave

Not overwhelming but small and tidy. So happy to have a farmers market within walking distance to where I and the family live. Always a great selection of produce, cheeses and meats to choose from. I have some of the farmers to thank for turning me on to baby turnips and their greens plus rapini ( like broccoli but with way more leaves ). The prices are on par or better than PCC and or Whole Foods. All neighborhood farmers markets are essential as water. Check them out. It's worth it.Oh and check out the pizza people and their portable oven. Good stuff.

A very small farmers market in a small parking lot but there's a parking lot for the farmers market just down the street! I didnt see it and parked down the road but the streets around here are on a hill so I had a bit of a trek. The ambiance was cute, friendly, and neighborly. There are two rows to walk through and the patio seating of a restaurant was playing live music so there was a fun ambiance. Surprisingly there were more food options than I expected and some really good options that I've seen at larger markets. I was able to get some delicioius peaches, and a mix and match deal of berries. I'd come to this market again if I'm in the area or lived in the neighborhood but because parking was a bit hard and the market is so small, I would say it was just OK.

We love this Farmers Market!While it's smaller than some, the selection is always bountiful and beautiful. The vendors are so friendly and personable and truly make you feel like you have joined the neighborhood, weekly meet-and-greet. Samples galore! Thus making it difficult to walk away empty-handed. Everything from the fresh, house-made mozzarella cheese (try the basil, sundried tomato, garlic, caprese!), local popsicles, hot foods and many seasonable fruits/veggies, keep us coming back from week to week.There is seating available for those wishing to enjoy dinner on the premises, as well as a small playground/play structure for children needing to work their wiggles out. A great bonus for those using the EBT and WIC programs: they accept both! Double your purchasing power with Fresh Bucks and tokens that can be used at a handful of other farmers markets as well.

This small farmers' market is great. There is just enough produce to keep us well stocked with great seasonal fruit and veg for nearly a week. I guess I don't need 10 stalls selling lettuce. Two or three will do for me. Being small, the Phinney Farmers' Market is not bursting with crowds like, say, the one one in Ballard. Another attraction to me is that this market is an easy walk from my home office, so is a nice afternoon break. I just wish the season of this market was longer.
