It's nice to go down on a Saturday morning, eat breakfast, and go shopping for fresh produce, wine, and plants.
This farmer's market was great! We visited on a Saturday morning, and the place was packed. We listened to live music as we ate delicious crepes. I got the bananas foster crepe, yummy! There was lots to see, tons of vendors. I picked up some fresh fruit, honey, fresh bread, a cool plant, and a couple other things. It was a lot of fun. The only downsides were the crowd and the bathrooms weren't great.
I would eat here every day for lunch. There is a large variety of food at a reasonable price. They have everything from salad wraps to Chinese.
I didn't know about this market until last year when I went with a sister in law. Talk about wonderful--I got some home made pies, went half on a flat of strawberries, some incredible locally made honeys (made with bourbon!) and some lovely cheeses. The honey was a Christmas gift for a hunter and the other food items were totally consumed by the family the next day!! Best strawberries I've had in recent memory--just clean and eat! It's worth your while to go check out the market-all sorts of vendors and items! (December 2012)
This is an outdoor market that happens every Thursday and Saturday in Baton Rouge from 8:00 to 12:00 pm. It's wonderful to get fresh produce, herbs and other plants, home grown beef and other delectables and, at the same time, support the community.
If you have never been on a Saturday, it's a real treat in downtown B.R. Great for families. The first Saturday of the month enjoy the arts and crafts as well. If it rains, not to worry, it's all in the North St. garage. I love supporting our local farmers. They are the best!
I can't believe this market has been going on for over 10 years! It has turned into a very nice place to go on a Saturday morning. Wonderful people and wonderful products.
What a lovely introduction to some of the local flavour of Baton Rouge! Great live music and delicious food and hot drinks to keep us warm. We bought art work and jewelry, cheese, spices and locally made chutneys and jams. Beautiful location and easy parking.
Great environment with ability to purchase homemade goods from arts and crafts to baked goods. A Saturday of family fun in downtown Baton Rouge.
Great downtown market. Arrive early for the best selection. Many items available. Friendly vendors and friendly customers. A traditional southern market.
