Farmer & the Cook - OJAI

Organic local produce and those vegan cooking essentials that we scour for. Great selection. Tasty treats as well.

This is like a little farmer's market, except it's possible to go multiple times of the week! If I lived in Ojai, this is probably where I would get most of my produce. They also carry products from Follow Your Heart, which is a personal favorite.

They always have 2 vegan soups, made fresh there. The bread is baked there, yum! the salad bar is pricey (9.95/lb) but delish fresh. Wish the menu was a little less veg much more vegan, but nevertheless, I love this place, great vibe.

I had read about this place on happycow, and here's my armer and Cook Market review. It's located west of downtown Ojai and you have to drive to get there. Once you do, it's worthwhile. The place is a little natural food market combined with a vegetarian cafe. Really cute and cozy with outdoor seating. We ordered some food from the counter, got a soup from the soup bar, and brought a snack from the market section. The market offers a selection of fresh, local, and organic in-season fruit and vegetable. The owners have their own farm.

Everything I ordered is delicious. I usually get the special that is always good. I also recommend everything in their baked goods. birdfeeder cookies are my current favorite!
