Forest Hills Farmers Market

At 1840 Ardmore Blvd, the Forest Hills Farmers Market has been supporting local farmers and vendors for more than 20 years, with a stated focus on keeping food close to the source and closer to the table. That emphasis on local agriculture shapes the market’s identity: it presents farmers as a working part of the community and frames direct buying as a way to support the local economy while shortening the path from harvest to home. In a Friday market window, that gives the stop a practical feel—part neighborhood pickup, part direct connection to regional growers and makers.

What you'll find there

The vendor roster leans strongly toward western Pennsylvania food producers and prepared-food businesses, with sellers coming from Pittsburgh, Monroeville, Murrysville, Harrison City, Latrobe, Evans City, Markleton, Uniontown, Greensburg, Gibsonia, and Munhall. Rather than reading like a produce-only lineup, the mix points to a market where farm goods sit alongside bakery, beverage, smokehouse, and ready-to-eat options from named local businesses.

• -Find prepared food from Bailees Bistro, LLC of Pittsburgh.
• -Catch Bates & Hayes Concessions from Gibsonia in the weekly lineup.
• -Pick up smokehouse goods from Billy’s Country Smokehouse of Greensburg.
• -Look for The Brinery @ Two Acre Farm from Uniontown.
• -Pour from a regional bottle with Bushy Run Winery of Harrison City.
• -Shop farm offerings from Chaganra Farm in Latrobe.
• -Grab coffee from Coffee That Helps of Monroeville.
• -Add brewery offerings from COVEN Brewing in Pittsburgh.
• -Save room for baked goods from Dee’s Delights of Munhall.
• -Eat on site with Earth, Wheel and Fire Pizza from Murrysville.
• -Bring home maple products from Lemmon Bros. Farms Sugar Camp in Markleton.
• -Round out the stop with farm products from McElhinny Farm of Evans City.

The market also maintains a calendar page with events listings, pointing to programming beyond the vendor tables even when no results appear in the current view. Forest Hills puts its local-food case in unusually direct terms: the market says it has supported local farmers and vendors for over 20 years, describes farmers as an important asset in the community, and argues for fewer steps between the food purchase and the table. That message fits the vendor map. The roster stretches across nearby western Pennsylvania towns—Latrobe, Monroeville, Harrison City, Murrysville, Greensburg, Markleton, Evans City, and Pittsburgh—so the sense of “local” here is tied to named places and working businesses, not a vague slogan. Even the lineup’s variety, from a sugar camp to a winery, brewery, smokehouse, bakery, and pizza maker, keeps that emphasis grounded in regional producers rather than abstract branding.

Know before you go

Parking is oriented around the Forest Hills Westinghouse Lodge Parking Lot, 4400 Greensburg Pike, just off Greensburg Pike across from the Borough Building, so plan your arrival around that lot rather than the Ardmore Boulevard mailing address. The market runs on Fridays from 4pm to 7pm during the May-to-October season, making it an after-work stop rather than a morning market. Dogs are not allowed, and restroom availability is listed as false, two details that can change how long you stay and who comes with you. Payment methods are marked clear, which suggests buyers can expect posted or established payment information on site.
