Convenient location and great fresh produce! The Vanderbilt Farmer’s Market is open every Thursday starting around 3pm and has a small variety of different vendors. They usually have several produce vendors from local farms, a milk and eggs vendor, several meat vendors and a few others who sell things like goat cheese and honey. The milk vendor is definitely my favorite! Try the chocolate milk, it tastes like melted ice cream and heaven. Most of the vendors are very nice and frequently give out samples. The produce is always great, I particularly like the fresh tomatoes. The produce is reasonably priced too, far less than a Whole Foods would charge and better quality. Other items like berries or meats can get a bit pricier, but overall it’s definitely worth it to come here every week!

I love the Vandy Farmer’s Market. What a great perk about working at this campus. Every Thursday starting in May and going through October, from 3pm-6pm(what perfect timing!!) you can stroll about between the TVC and Light Hall and see what local farmers and artisans have to offer. It’s like someone took the Nashville Farmer’s Market in downtown and shrunk it to fit inside Vanderbilt. A great selection of produce, meats, breads, and homemade pastas and pies. So you don’t have the same large selection at other markets. I can stop by here as I am leaving to go home and grab dinner for the night or the weekend without breaking my bank. For such a small market they have a wide variety of things to choose from. I look forward to this every Thursday once it starts up. Its a great way to support local and eat healthy and I am so happy Vanderbilt has this for their employees. Although if you work nearby feel free to walk over and check it out. It’s really wonderful and such a great concept.

Today we picked up our CSA from Bells Bend Farms at the Vanderbilt Farmers Market! Our produce was great but loved the flowers, goats milk and all the medical scrubs

What a FANTASTIC idea! I love that every Thursday from May to October I can shop in the courtyard outside of the medical center for tasty veggies, local cheeses, and beautiful flowers! Rain or shine. The vendors are super friendly and the convenience of having a farmers market at a workplace can’t be beat. I also think it’s excellent to promote healthy eating at a place that focuses on healthcare and quality of life. I’d suggest bringing cash with you to make your purchases.

The Vanderbilt Farmers Market has renewed my taste for fresh, locally grown fruits and vegetables and increased my interest in trying new foods and recipes. I believe most of the vendors are also at the Nashville Farmer’s Market, but if you’re working or visiting Vanderbilt, then it’s a convenient way to purchase on your way home on Thursday afternoons. The vendors are usually very nice and helpful, and the selection plenty. Some vendors accept credit cards, but I found having cash on hand is better.
