It's peak season for local produce, so we went looking for the best places to source your weekly goods. We checked Google ratings to rank the top five markets in the county. One of our favorites didn't quite make the top five cut on raw ratings alone, so — hey, I'm the editor — we added a special bonus stop to pair with your trip.
A quick note before you head out: hours and availability can shift with the season and the weather, so it's always a good idea to check ahead before making the drive.
Family-run since 1998, it often has produce that was in the field just hours earlier. Reviewers consistently call out the sweet corn and the free-range eggs, and the farm's own beef and pork give it more depth than a typical seasonal stand. It's also become a fall destination thanks to the Mazezilla corn maze, but don't sleep on it in August: this is the stand for tomatoes, peppers, and melons right now.
A family-owned market that's built a loyal following in the lake region since 2015. Reviewers rave about the baked goods in particular — the pies and fresh bread come up again and again — alongside a rotating produce selection, local honey and soaps, and specialty olive oils for anyone stocking up beyond the basics.
A true community staple for nearly 50 years (it's almost as old as I am!), this producer-only market on Courthouse Square is the gold standard for buying directly from local growers and artisans. Regulars point to Race Farm's produce stand right in front of the courthouse and the Honeycrisp apples later in the season as can't-miss stops, alongside a rotating lineup of local bread and pasta sauce vendors.
With strong ties to the local Amish community, this market blends produce with a genuine general-store feel — think fresh fruits and vegetables alongside BBQ, homemade ice cream, baked goods, and even furniture. Reviewers say it's worth the trip for the pretzel sandwiches alone, but bring cash — cards aren't accepted.
A versatile stop that pairs fresh produce with a full nursery operation, so you can grab dinner ingredients and something for the garden in the same trip. The bakery is the sleeper hit here — reviewers specifically call out the fruit pies — and it's open seven days a week.
If you're already downtown for the Monroe Farmers Market, it is well worth adding a stop here. It offers a classic, traditional market feel that many locals appreciate for its authentic variety and focus on seasonal staples like local honey, mushrooms, and baked goods.
It is with heavy hearts that we share the news that Pocono Organics in Long Pond is winding down its operations, with a final closing date of September 7. Officials say they are winding down operations of their farm, market, and cafe. For nearly nine years, this regenerative organic farm has served as a beacon for healthy food, education, and community gathering. While we are sad to see this unique hub for sustainable agriculture and its wonderful cafe close its doors, we encourage you to pay them a final visit before September 7 to support their hardworking team and enjoy their space one last time.
