Singh Meadows - Tempe, Arizona

Please note Singh Meadows is not open to its full capacity as it used to be. The market, cafe, and barking bodega have not been open consistently or open at all for some period of time. Please keep this in mind before you plan to drive over. I’m trying to save you the trip*

If you decide to go over there, maybe call first to see what is open on that day 🙂

(The pictures I posted are from 2022 when we went semi-regularly).

That being said, I’m a big supporter of this place when operational, it is really awesome. We live within 5 minutes walking distance in the community right behind Singh Meadows off of Miller Rd.

This is a heads up to people that the only thing really going on at the farm at this time is being able to get soil/compost. The market and cafe have been closed, I’m not sure for how long. So, Google shows hours of 8am to 2pm as “open” and technically it is, but all of the great aspects of the farm aren’t happening…expect just getting soil/compost for your home garden.

I spoke to Mr. Singh today when I called to check on the status since I have friends who wanted to meet me there, and we had a good conversation on how things have been going at S.M. He said on their FB page they have updated people about the change in operations, but I don’t really use FB much so please note here that the main thing to do here at the moment is get composting for your garden.

The Singh family experienced a loss in the family which impacted the farms operations. Please be patient with the ownership to get things up and running again. This is a place that people want to come and enjoy, but it’s not running at its full capacity right now. This info is current as of 3/29/24.

WARNING: The hours listed for this business may be incorrect. If you plan to visit, call ahead to confirm they're open.

I drove about 50 minutes from home to get fresh produce at Singh Meadows, only to find it completely closed when I arrived. This was incredibly frustrating, as I had checked their online presence before making the trip. The hours listed on this Google page are inaccurate, and their Facebook and Instagram accounts didn't provide clear information. Other online listings I found were similarly unclear.

After calling, I learned that they don't currently have produce to sell as it's not in season for Phoenix. The employee suggested I should have known this, which felt condescending (though it might have been unintentional). They do offer compost, honey, and other items, which was mentioned in a friendlier tone.

As someone who isn't a farmer, I had no idea about the seasonal availability. I based my decision to visit solely on their publicly available information.

To Singh Meadows: Please update your hours across all platforms. Be more active on social media to communicate current offerings and availability. Consider that not all customers will be familiar with farming seasons.

To potential visitors: ALWAYS call before making the trip to avoid wasting time and fuel.

While writing this review takes more effort than I'd like, I feel it's important to share this experience. I'm sure others have encountered similar issues without speaking up.

Remember you're paying for the atmosphere when you order your food. I'm not going to lie, it's pricey but also delicious.
Hummus plate: $10.95 gets 1/2 cup hummus, 5 cherry tomatoes, 4 broccoli florets, 4 cauliflower florets, 4 cut up radishes, 1 sliced small carrot & 1 small sliced pita. Very fresh and organic. Breakfast chibatta $9.95 plus I added 1 thick slice bacon for $2.50 but wasn't there supposed to be cheese and avocado?
Large coffee: $5.40. 3x3x3 piece of oatmeal cake. $5 plus tax.
Maybe I'm just out of touch after being away from restaurants this last year because I thought everything was overpriced. Maybe it's just me.
Very peaceful and relaxing except I could have done without the music. I'll be going back when it's cooler (hey owner if you're reading this... install some overhead fans) and when I have deeper pockets.

This is the place to be on the weekends, farmers market, so you have all your fresh veggies for the week, they also have a grill for breakfast/lunch foods, plus fresh baked breads, homemade golden honey, pickles, fresh juices and teas and a ton of other goodies. The space outside opens up TO a HUGE grassy area, with a pond and an area for volleyball. Bring a blanket enjoy the birds, the sun and enjoy the weekend and Singh Meadows.

Beautiful place. Great produce and price! Lines are a bit long and they only have one register is the only down fall. I was going to go back and grab a jar of honey before leaving but the line was too long.

What a great spot! The amount of space to let littles run around and play is amazing. There is a pond and ducks to help entertain. If you don’t get there early, expect a line. Food is decent but I was disappointed that the menu online is nothing like what is actually offered. Only two food options were available in addition to pastries. Either way, worth the visit!

This place is wonderful, and the best use of an old golf course I have seen. It is beautiful, the staff are friendly, and there is a mellow atmosphere. We brought our dog this past weekend, and it was great for our morning walk. Also, since we’ve had so many monsoons lately, the wash that borders it looked like a river.

Technically, it's a wonderful place to buy Heirloom organic produce and other organic products. The Meadows has an actual cafe compared to the funky food setups at the Farm. Some outdoor shaded tables, and some in the sun. Truthfully, for those of us who fell in love with magical Singh Farms under the canopy of trees, the chickens and turkeys and horses, funky little sitting areas...it was a literal Paradise! The Meadows is an infant by comparison to the Farm with its 11 year old tree canopy in the desert. It will take time to fashion the Meadows into the Singhs' creative vision. Meanwhile, help them along by noshing on their organic meals and take home their truly amazing veggies. Need organic compost? Singh's famous compost that built the Farm is available to take home to grow your own! You owe it to yourself and your family to check out the Meadows to let your kids run around on the expansive grass area, perfect for group games, too.
