Phoenix Farmers Market - the downtown farmers market
The downtown Phoenix Farmers Market is the place to be. They had a full contingent of farmers under a covered pavilion. It was set up next to an extremely popular restaurant that features local produce and products.
Outside of the market, on the public streets were food trucks serving breakfast and brunch offerings. They had live music and tables and chairs set up. The market was packed with customers buying produce for the week.
They had a good mix of vendors that sold produce, meats, baked goods (sweet and savory), wool, soaps, plants, and a variety of items including canned goods and drink mixes.
The prices were a premium. I nearly choked on some of the prices but hey - good for them!
The market was hustling the whole time we were there. People were buying products for the week and had full bags - not one or two item purchases.
The vendor fees are interesting. They are $96 for a single space plus a percentage of the sales for the day.
Unlike the Sighn Farms experience this was much more of a farmers market event. Folks could sit and enjoy snacks and meals from the food trucks. But it was not the same slower "come and visit" experience. Parking was on the street and easy to find. They did not have a lot of road signs but there was so much hustle around the market it was easy to find.
Phoenix has a farmers market culture much more similar to what I've been used to seeing. There seems to be a good market in each community that is well supported by the city.

Phoenix Farmers Market - visit to a CSA
On Saturday morning we visited a local farm to see their market set up. This is a CSA that is open to the public. They have a farm stand, food, and a beautiful tour of the grounds. It is set up as a meeting place for families and friends.
The Singh Farm is an event for folks to attend - it is not just a pick up spot. There are demonstrations, display gardens, walking tours, and a small petting zoos. The place was packed and the parking lot was full. There were tons of buyers and they were loading up with produce and other goods.
This was not a casual stop-by-and-get-something... the customers were shopping. There seemed to be a couple of vendors invited by Sighn Farms including a pork farmer.
The lines at the different check out stands were at least 10 people deep the entire time we were there. They had seasonal produce, juices, fermented juices, jams, jellies, honey, and a lot of baked goods.
We never nearly fought the guy in front of us for some pastries. Luckily they had more in the back.
There were a lot of artisinal style breads with one line just for those products.
Customers could pre-order a CSA box - but it did not seem to be entirely subscription based. When asked we were told that the boxes could be pre-ordered the week before until Friday monringThe produce was beautifully displayed in baskets. The price of the boxes was $40 and customers were very happy to pay that amount. Customers could also buy produce in any amounts - just like a regular farm stand.
Upon checkout the produce was transferred to customer's personal shopping bags. I did not see any Singh Farms logo wear of bags.
All of the produce was beautifully displayed in attractive arrangements.
There were plenty of places for customers to sit and chat. Many people brought a paper then enjoyed a coffee and pastry while enjoying the morning.
Clearly we don't have an outside venue but the clever way the produce was displayed, the friendly employees, the variety of products, and the attractive surroundings made visiting Sighn Farms a really fun Saturday morning. Customers were there for the experience and also to purchase food for the week. What a great business!
