Prince George Farmers' Market

PG Farmers' Market has been one of my Saturday destinations for years. Although it is a small farmers' market it has a lot to offer and at prices that are way lower than any other in the area.They have a wide range of local produce, eggs, honey, coffee (roasted locally, not grown), and lots of assorted craft items. I typically go for the eggs and produce. On this occasion, I bought some coffee from a vendor which was amazing and only $7 as compared to some local coffed I bought in RVA for $12. I also bought some veggies, eggs from one of the few vendors that sell them, and hoop cheese. This is a great little farmer's market. The only down side is that there are some weekends that vendors are scant. My favorite thing to get is eggs and there are times when there are no vendors with eggs. Even still, I never leave empty handed and never spend more than $20.

This is about as good as it's going to get for a small-town farmer's market. I love that my hometown is doing this. I love that it's still in that somewhat awkward beginning stage of "how does this work?" (or maybe, that's just me...). I love that the vendors are quick to point you to another vendor if they're out of something or aren't carrying something that day. Easy to find, super cheap prices. The big drawback is that you can't get eggs or any meat products... yet. Excited to see how this market grows in the future!

Great place to find the freshest vegetables and fruits in season. The crafting vendors are so talented that you're sure to find something you'll love there.

The PG farmers market is really small town at it's best. It is opened seasonally so you have to check the county website in the springe and fall, especially later months. But it has some of the BEST local produce you can get for super cheap pricing. The produce is of course seasonal also. For instance yesterday I picked up sweet potatoes, pumpkin squash and cucumbers. There are no meat or eggs yet but I believe they are working on that. There are also local vendors with unique handmade crafts, jewelry or local small businesses advertising. It's a great way to get to know the community if you are new to the area. We have a lot of people move in and out because of Fort Lee. You do need cash to pay although I did see one vendor using an iPad to take credit cards. If you decide to go make sure you take cash though. It's still a small town.
