Roots is open every Tuesday. It is huge. One area is flea market. Arrive early for this. A live auction is held in two different areas. One building they sell household things ie furniture, glass ware . Another building has some animals sometimes plants, bulk produce. There are plenty of vendor tables(Amish and Mennonite) with fresh produce, baked goods, home... More

Loved the wonderful baked goods, candies, produce, and more! I recommend taking along a large tote or cart on wheels to carry all the awesome things you purchase. Be sure to eat the Pit Beef sandwich for lunch. The stand is located just outside the main entrance. Give yourself plenty of time to explore all the flea market buildings and... More

I have found that the best place to park here is to the far left in the grassy areas. I have previously attempted to park in the main lot and drive around , drive around attempting to find a spot. The produce and prepared foods are great. The one thing that needs much improvement at certain stands is their customer... More

I have been going to Root's for as long as I can remember. It is a big place so be prepared to do a lot of walking. Once you find the exact places you want to go to, then bring good sturdy bags to carry your purchases around. I have found whatever I have been looking for from fresh meats,... More

I've never left Root's without finding everything I needed. Sombody'll have it. I always meet somebody I know, so it's a great social experience as well as shopping. Lots of organic/farm raised meat and veggies. Local is best!

I've been to this market a few times and I just hate the set up. It's not easy to get around or find your way around. There is no shop there or food place that makes me want to return for any reason. I would much rather spend my time at the Green Dragon in Ephrata....
