New this year at the Riverview Farmers Market is Hudson Grinding, an excellent knife sharpening stand. They really put a sharp edge on my old Wustoff chefs knife. It's so sharp, it now cuts through a sheet of paper like butter! I also saw that they sharpen fancy Japanese knives, scissors, hedge clippers, etc. A great addition to my favorite market.
Small but cute. Loved the way they set up all the stalls. We got there late so some were packing up or were already packed up.
It’s a beautiful market, with plenty of options: live music, taco trucks, 3 different fruit and veggie stands, fresh cheese and pasta as well as frozen homemade meals. They have plant and nut shops, sometimes there’s a pickle vendor. Fresh meat, seafood and hemp: but you aren’t going to save money on produce here.
It’s expensive. You could easily spend $100 on 5 things. They DO have quality items but think Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s prices.
I definitely recommend going to check it out and it’s a nice place that the community gathers.

There weren't an awful lot of stands open when I got there at around 1:00 p.m and the selection of what was left was pretty limited. There was still another hour left before the end so that was a little surprising. Also, I've been there in previous years and there seemed to be more variety in what people were selling.
There was only one food truck and I waited almost 30 minutes for my food. I would have liked to see more food trucks or similar options.

Riverview Park Farmer's Market takes place on Sundays, May through November, from 10 am to 2pm. If you come in after 12noon, your selection might be very limited, so I suggest to come in before noon. Riverview Park Farmer's Market has a great selection of fresh veggies, fruits, artisanal breads, baked goods, dog treats, and sweets. Great coffee shop, Modcup Coffee, and an authentic Italian restaurant, Corto, are right across the street! Bon appetit!
The crown jewel of Heights living and visiting is the buzzy community created by this market. We make it a weekly stop for the freshest of ingredients, neighborhood hello's, dog shenanigans and abundant smiles and relaxation. The market organizers and vendors do an impressive job of creating a special, seasonal atmosphere where everyone is welcomed and thoroughly satiated. Situated against the towering vistas of NYC, it remains at the top of our Sunday "to do" list. Our only wish is that it was year round.
Love the Farmer's Market! Always tons of vendors, everyone polite and sweet and willing to answer any questions you may have. You can find bread, premade food, nuts, overnight oats, jam, honey, produce, plants, and pots here (and that's just what I remember off the top of my head). Always lovely to go and see what people have, even if I don't buy anything.
My favorite thing to get is probably plants. I snagged these beauties today, along with the pots.
