Down to Earth Chelsea Farmers Market

Down to Earth Chelsea Farmer's Market at 23rd st and 9th ave), open from 9:00 am - 2:00 pm from late April to late December on Saturdays. A new organic no-spray farm called Berry Brook Farm from Hamden, NY has replaced echo creek at echo creek's recommendation with similar growing practices, with no sprays at all, better and fresher than organic produce in grocery stores that are less local and tend to have scheduled sprays. Fino Farms is also new, and specializes in orchard fruit, and also grows vegetables. Jersey Farm Produce is back again in 2023 and I believe is no-spray except for spray as needed for the apples which have no wax.. Orwashers is a NYC bakery at this market and was founded in year 1916, and has whole grain natural sourdough breads with local NY State and organic grains, and has baked goods and pastries brought fresh from the NYC bakery in the morning. The staff here is very knowledgeable about the ingredients and the craft of bread making, pastries, and varieties and sourcing of grains. - 7/1/2023: favorites from Orwasher's are the spelt/whole wheat /millet/raisin/ sunflower seed unleavened bread, and the ultimate organic nys whole wheat loaves of bread. - 7/1/2023: Now in the summer, Berry Brook Farm has a nice selection of gold potatoes, turnips, radishes, broccolini, mustard greens, tuscan kale, red beefsteak, german bicolor heirloom tomatoes, and many other no-spray vegetables, all displayed in wooden and metal crates.

Best chicken and eggs can be found here - little secret - and the organic produce sold by a tall fella name Pat is good as well. Also, the pickles are the best!

Really nicely balanced farmers market. Fresh seafood from Montauk by P&S Seafood, upstate fruits and vegetables, Merediths baked goods, Meats and much more. Take a stroll and support local business!

They're great and all over the NYC and Westchester area. I bought some great bourbon once. Didn't know you could buy booze at farmers markets! Also a must for pickle lovers.

Good store for quick stops.

So much variety, great quality, fresh products, lovely sales people. You'll want to come back again and again.

It's small but has some good stands. Great honey. Good produce at reasonable prices. Social distancing mostly practiced. Only reason for 4 stars is it's small.

It's incredibly convenient for me and I can avoid public xport, but it's way more expensive than the Union Square Greenmarket, so problematic for a lot of families, I would think

I prefer the Chelsea Farmers Market to the union square one. Although it has less vendors, it is much cheaper for essentially the same quality. This is where I get all my fresh fruits and veggies. They have an Orwasher's vendor too which is awesome! Definitely worth checking out. I do wish it was year round though.

It's not the Union Square Farmer's Market but you can get fresh vegetables, fruits, bread, whiskey(!), pies, cookies here.

Great variety of food, produce, Orwasher's bread and gluten free bread, fish from the fisherman, meat from the farmer, cheese from the guy who makes the cheese, tempeh, great produce and booze. Early in the season they have all sort of plants and herbs too. I love this market!

great stuff at our new neighborhood farmers market. Check them out!! They're open on Saturdays only
