One of the best pieces of chicken I’ve ever tasted. I drive two hours away to come eat here! I pre-order the barbecue chicken because they sell out very rapidly.
Best BBQ chicken, fresh veggies & homemade baked goods. Fresh eggs too.

About Hammond School Farm Market

Introduction

Nestled just outside of New Holland, PA, Hammond School Farm Market has been delighting families, food enthusiasts, and seasonal wanderers alike with its colorful bounty and warm, country charm. As a full-service farmers’ market, flower market, fruit and vegetable store, pick-your-own farm produce destination, and pumpkin patch, Hammond School Farm Market offers a year-round celebration of freshness, variety, and genuine hospitality. Whether you’re stocking up on crisp autumn pumpkins or craving a mid-summer soft-serve cone, you’ll discover why generations of local shoppers—and visitors from two hours away—keep coming back.

Freshness & Quality You Can Taste

At the heart of Hammond School Farm Market lies a deeply rooted commitment to product quality and freshness. From sun-ripened tomatoes to just-laid farm eggs, every item is hand-selected to meet the high standards that customers have come to expect. Frequent visitors praise the “always fresh local products,” noting the bright flavors of seasonal fruits and vegetables alongside baked goods that taste like they just emerged from the oven.

  • Farm Fresh Eggs: Customers rave that “they truly have the best eggs,” and these rich, golden-yolk treasures are a cornerstone of many a Hammond School shopping list.
  • Locally Grown Produce: Crisp lettuces, ripe berries, and luscious peaches arrive weekly, ensuring a rotating selection that highlights the best of each season.
  • Artisanal Baked Goods: From flaky pies to hearty breads, the bakery case is stocked with scratch-made treats that pair perfectly with the market’s jams and preserves.

While the vast majority of experiences are overwhelmingly positive, a handful of shoppers have noted the occasional uneven batch of strawberries or a lapse in dairy freshness. These isolated remarks only underscore how exceptional the market’s usual standards are—and how swift the staff is to address any concerns.

Friendly, Family-Run Hospitality

Step onto the gravel lot and you’ll immediately feel the warmth of Hammond School Farm Market’s customer service. This family-owned operation prides itself on personal touches—whether it’s offering advice on which heirloom tomato is best for slicing or guiding you to the sweetest mums for your fall display. Guests describe the team as “so warm and welcoming to all,” and many return not just for the products, but to reconnect with familiar faces who remember their names and preferences.

A Year-Round Festival of Seasonal Offerings

Variety is the spice of rural life, and Hammond School Farm Market celebrates every turn of the calendar with enthusiasm. Customers treasure the ever-changing lineup that keeps the experience fresh:

  • Springtime Blooms & Plant Sales: Lush hanging baskets and vibrant annuals are praised as “extremely healthy and thriving all summer long,” making it easy to bring salon-worthy color to your porch or garden.
  • Summer Pick-Your-Own: Wander through fields brimming with berries or sunflowers, and pick your favorites at peak ripeness.
  • Fall Pumpkins & Mums: The pumpkin patch and chrysanthemum displays draw visitors from an hour—or even two—away, with seasonal décor that’s as Instagram-worthy as it is family-friendly.
  • Winter Harvest & Holiday Eats: Gourmet jams, decorative wreaths, and specialty produce make it simple to celebrate the coziest time of year.

But perhaps no seasonal feature garners more excitement than the famous barbecue chicken. Weekly spring and summer weekends draw barbecue aficionados who agree: “One of the best pieces of chicken I’ve ever tasted,” and they sell out fast. Pre-orders are strongly recommended!

Exceptional Value & Convenient Location

One of the most common refrains among customers is that Hammond School Farm Market offers competitive, fair pricing that often beats urban-area retailers. “Great produce, even better prices,” one shopper notes, while another compares it favorably to markets closer to Philadelphia. Yet value here means more than just dollars saved—it’s the peace of mind that comes from purchasing food grown and prepared with care.

Located a short drive outside New Holland—and well worth the trip for those coming from farther afield—the market is easily accessible from major routes, yet still retains that authentic country charm. Ample parking and clearly marked lanes make loading your car a breeze, whether you’ve come for a quick dozen eggs or an overflowing haul of pumpkins, mums, and baked goods.
