Great farmers market, they're still selling their wonderful produce, articles and items and serving their breakfast sandwiches, pastries, etc etc. love it here where you're close by to other activities like on 11/4 there was skateboarding just a few steps away. Definitely a must visit and support our local farmers and entrepreneurs!

They have really grown over the years. They have a variety. Fresh bread, beautiful plants, wonderful fresh veggies, and different areas selling meat and seafood. My favorite is the local honey, The tea guy, called www.overachievingtea.com . and the Hot sauce guy called Speedys. There are so many stand, It changes and everything is always wonderful. I Love doing gift shopping with the unique stands with jewelry, pottery, paintings, handmade items and it is always changing. Some of the same people are there but I have noticed if I see something I want I grab it because things sell fast. It is all outside and there is music with real musicians. What a wonderful vibe.

Great farmers market that is open year-round! So many great stands, from produce to prepared foods, to produce to local boutique shopping. Parking can be a little crazy, but the convention center parking lot is close by and easy. There wasn't one thing that I wasn't impressed by and can't wait to become a farmers market regular!Recommend:Smoked Gouda DipJoysicles (the cantaloupe mint)Virginia Pie Co Hand PiesMAD seasoning

This is my absolute favorite Farmers Market. If you have never been you have to check it out. There is plenty of parking in nearby parking lots. You can get everything you need at this market. Meat, seafood, bread, coffee, cheese, pastries, jams, peanut butter and of course veggies and fruits. Starting in April it's every Saturday from 9-12. You gotta get some Smoked Gouda dip.....I call it Crack dip. Cromwells veggies are awesome. Everything is local and fresh. Don't forget to bring your bags. They have music playing and everyone is just so nice. It's a great vibe (yes I did that on purpose). A food truck is there too. And you can get your knives sharpened while eating a meat pop. Then walk across the street and listen to live music while shopping. Clothes, jewelry, art, etc etc. Support local and check it out....you won't regret it.

Love love love love love! I've visited once before but had a great time today at the Old Beach Farmer's Market meeting new people, seeing entrepreneurs in action, and enjoying natural and locally made items supporting the local economy and finding tons of health options. This market is simple and small but has nearly everything you could need with some meats, seafood, ice cream (Lolly's), coffee (Three Ships), veggies (New Earth Farm), succulents, fresh flower displays, micro greens, teas, olive oil, snacks, breads, lotions and soaps and other items. These items are sourced and made locally and focus on healthy and sustainable living/eating. Love! Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. And there is an easy vibe (har har, see what I did there) for locals and tourists alike sampling items and asking questions. It's in the ViBe creative district and so is close to tons of other options for shopping such as Java Surf Cafe, Bad Ass Coffee, Beach Bully BBQ, The Ships Coffee Roasters, North End Bag, Jars of Dust Pottery, etc. My friend and I also walked across the street into the park and looked around at the 20 or so vendors in the craft market and had a great time looking at hand-made wall art, locally sewn and made bags and clothing, as well as a ton of pottery and crafts. Such a great day. You will not regret a visit to this small, but thriving Farmer's Market. Most places offer a discount if you bring back the glasses your items are purchased in.

A Saturday morning beach tradition for decades. I personally have been a dozen times, or more. It's great vibe with neighborhood folk, dogs and children strolling. For me it feels good to know your supporting local farmers and businesses directly with your purchases. Located in the Crocs 19th Street Bistro parking lot in the Virginia Beach Vibe District at 19th street. They were bigger and apparently no longer have use of the road which they would close down for 4 hours or so. However, they pack a ton in. On my last visit over 20 vendors were present. The market operates on Saturdays mid May to mid September 8-12. Parking is around off street and and a few parking lots. There is no garage parking, but the good news it's all free. The area has some construction going on and a few sidewalks are closed. A few vendors of note on my last visit were New Earth Farm, Flour Child Bakery, Three Ships Coffee & Speedys Hot Sauce. Be prepared to sample the goods and enjoy. Most vendors take credit cards too!Bring the family and come on down to the Vibe District a few blocks off the Oceanfront for an eclectic mix of local merchandise that directly supports our economy.

Can't believe that I'm just now checking this out!A fresh Farmer's Market at the beach, (open Saturdays in the summer, only from 9am - noon) located near Crocs and Bad Ass coffee. Find a parking spot and get to walking, eating, and shopping! It's not huge but I honestly was surprised and impressed by the vendor selection. In the grassy area across Crocs, was more of the non-edible goodies - clothing, accessories, art. The area beside Bad Ass was for food and drinks. Some of the ones there today, 7/7/2018:Doughminion DonutsPelon'sJoysiclesCreative wedgeMy Vegan Sweet Tooth Green CatThree Ships CoffeeA place that sells fresh bread, pastries, meat, veggies, fruits, handmade this, handmade that, AND has fresh eggs frying and sausage being grilled up (I kinda wanted a fresh breakfast sandwich right there for $4,) but we just got açaí bowls at Zeke's. Sad. But next time, definitely. Go enjoy your Saturday at the beach, grab a Kombucha, or coffee, pick up a gift, some pastries, freshly pressed juice, freshly picked fruit, everything, here! I would come back. And I'll come back hungry and thirsty next time!

Prior to this weekend our last visit to Old Beach Farmers Market and Virginia Beach was in August 2008. It was there that we sampled the most delicious sweet potato biscuits with country ham and cinnamon butter. Words can't effectively express how good they were. In fact two years later in 2010 I was still thinking of those biscuits and had 50 made and shipped frozen. I have since lost the vendors information but the memory never left my mind. During our trip this past weekend to Cape Charles I made it a point to drive over the bridge in hopes that that vendor and those delicious biscuits were still around.Unfortunately they weren't there but the farmers market has expanded and it was worth the trip. The variety now is beyond food and produce to handcrafted arts and crafts. Artisan crafted breads, spreads, and wines and kombucha can also be found. Farm fresh produce is still available and now of the organic variety. Along with beautiful designed planters and flowers. Some of the items were a little pricey, but it's nice to support small local businesses and farms.While it's not large there's enough stands to warrant a visit. Samples are generously given out and free parking was available in lots of the closed professional offices nearby.A highly recommended stop if you're in the area on a Saturday morning, just be sure to come hungry.
