Organic Products Fair In Parque Las Heras

[Joe]

There is another thread that describes this as a "Farmer's Market". This really isn't a farmer's market - of all the vendors maybe 1 out of 10 is selling fresh produce. It's also only this weekend. Maybe it is every month but different locations. This is a organic products fair - think of it as Whole Foods in Las Heras Park but with a lot of free samples.

It is very crowded.

Rice, pasta, salsas, cheese, juices, beer, fresh fruits and vegetables, fresh baked goods, cosmetics, food court.

I bought a 1 Kg bag of organic brown rice for $20.

I might go back in the afternoon since I live close.

I went back unfortunately even more crowded. I bought three Aderezos made from Grapeseed Oil flavored with Garlic and Basil, another Chocolate and Orange, and a Basalmic Merlot Vinagerette 250ml bottles set of three in a nice gift box $100.

Guys, you need to go early in the morning, as soon as it opens, 10, 10.30 tops. You'll be able to look around and shop comfortably without all the crowds. I went on Sunday morning and it was perfectly fine. It may not be ideal, but it's best for those who actually want to shop and not just "sightsee".
I agree that it's not actually a farmers market and some of the vendors don't sell anything different from what you would find in a regular store, but some of them actually have some pretty cool stuff that you won't find elsewhere.
