I tend to forget the Sunday morning Oakridge farmers market exists but it always feel great to support whenever I can 🙂
Get the Thai basil for $1.50 per huge bunch. They’re usually on the left in this picture. Then secretly make fun of the goofball selling POPCORN for $11 per bag.

Looking for recommendations for a good farmers market / resources for whole foods
Hi! I live in Yonkers and I’ve been recently trying to change the way that I eat. At first I thought I was doing well cause I was buying food from places like Whole Foods and Moms organic market in Dobbs ferry but I want something a bit more farm-to-table, if that makes sense.…

Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise the Red Hill Market for its excellent atmosphere, diverse range of local products, and delicious food options. The community vibe and beautiful country setting are major draws. A minor point of feedback concerns dog barking, but overall, the market is highly recommended for a vibrant and enjoyable experience.
"Exellent market and a great atmosphere
Great range of local products & a good choice of food.
Our family visited here for the first time and loved it..
Some advice though- We were looking at a ceramic stall and the stall next to her
( some type of healing stall / products ) had her dog with her at her stall.
Dogs are great to bring to the markets, however stall holders who bring their dogs really should be aware of the noise and unpleasant sound of constant barking.
This dog did not stop barking the whole time we were looking & when we waited in line for food , the dog still kept barking . This is not a pleasant experience for customers looking at stalls, and also unpleasant for the stall holders that got stuck next to her.
5 stars though for the market overall."
