Farmer’s markets are a thing of beauty. They’re the source of the freshest ingredients while giving customers a chance to know the people behind the freshness. It’s also a great place to visit for unique finds, as well as good food and a great community.

If you want to get the best ingredients and the most unique finds, a farmer’s market is definitely the place to go. If you want your share, here are some of the best farmer’s markets in the metro:

Is Makati too far south? Why not try Sidcor Sunday Market? Located at Eton Centris, EDSA cor. Quezon Ave., Quezon City. It started out as a very small farmer’s market back in 2000. It’s known for its wide variety of local finds: from produce to meat and poultry, as well as plants, pets, clothes, and other goods that you won’t see anywhere else.

Sidcor Sunday Market is open every Sunday from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m.

 

THE PIONEER. AANI Weekend Market started the weekend market thing before it was cool, i.e. back in 1996. Photo courtesy of Looloo Insights

AANI Weekend Market may not be as glamorous as the first three, but it’s definitely up there in terms of variety. Known as the pioneer of weekend farmer’s markets, its new home at ARCA South in Taguig City has more room for the 200+ vendors to display their goods.

AANI Weekend Market is open from 5 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturdays and Sundays.

The BF Saturday Market has been making a buzz as of late. It’s a lot further south compared to Legaspi and Salcedo, but it has just as much variety as any of the farmer’s markets mentioned here. Fresh produce and unique food finds may draw much of Southerners to BF Saturday Market, but having a seafood stand definitely sets it apart from the rest.

The BF Saturday Market is located at Elizalde Park, 37 Pilar Banzon St., BF Homes, Paranaque. It’s open from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Saturday.
