Get FRESH at the Farmers’ Market!

Whether you live in a city or rural township, a farmers’ market is easy to find today. Not so, not too long ago! Back in 1977, there were only 7 farmers markets in the entire state. Today, there are hundreds, and 53 of them were open for business during the 2023 Summer Season.

We have compiled a list of Farmers’ Markets that are open year-round as well as Pre-Thanksgiving and Holiday Markets. Continue to check back, as we will be updating the list as it grows!
