Pocono Farmers Market

What they do

Pocono Farmers Market is a fixed-location market on Route 115 in Blakeslee. Open hours are Friday 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., running through November. Inventory typically includes:

• Fresh organic produce — seasonal vegetables and fruit
• [[grass-fed|Grass-fed]] meats — beef, pork, poultry from regional pasture-based producers
• Dairy — milk, cheese, butter
• Amish baked goods — breads, pies, cookies from [[poconos|Pennsylvania]] Amish bakeries
• Honey, jam, preserves — regional small-producer pantry items

Cash-only operation. Located near the Pocono Raceway corridor — same plateau elevation as [[pocono-organics|Pocono Organics]] a few miles north.

Why it’s listed

The combination of organic produce + [[grass-fed|grass-fed]] meat + Amish baked goods at a single fixed-location market is uncommon. Most farm-direct food in the [[poconos|Poconos]] is split across the Saturday Stroudsburg farmers market (producer-only, seasonal), individual farm stands (variable hours), and the Pocono Organics retail market (organic-focused, café-attached). Pocono Farmers Market consolidates several of those threads at one site with extended weekly hours.

The Amish-bakery connection is also worth flagging. The eastern PA Amish baking tradition is one of the bioregion’s adjacent cultural-continuity threads — most Amish bakeries are in Lancaster County, two hours south. A Pocono outlet bringing those baked goods up to Blakeslee preserves a relationship across ecological zones that would otherwise require a long drive.

Bioregional fit

Blakeslee sits on the [[pocono-plateau|Pocono Plateau]] at roughly 1,800 feet, near the geographic center of the bioregion’s resort and second-home corridor. [[the-market|The market]]‘s location on Route 115 puts it on the natural traffic axis for residents and visitors moving between the plateau resorts and the Stroudsburg corridor. Its year-round operation matters in a bioregion where most farm-direct retail is seasonal.
