Rochester Downtown Farmers Market

Opening Day, Outdoor Summer Market
Opening Day (Saturday May 5th): Join us in celebrating the return of summer market, at our outdoor location just east of the Government Center in downtown Rochester. Check our website in April for scheduled events.

Our market consists of a diverse group of local growers, with almost 90 vendors who live and raise their products within a 50-mile radius of Rochester, and rotate through our Summer and Winter Markets seasonally. They share a passion for providing quality and fresh variety to the community. From apples to zucchini, and everything in between, our stalls abound with healthy selections, direct from the farmer to you. You will find a lot of everything you need and more - veggies, greens, fruits and berries, herbs, bedding plants, flowers, jams, honey, maple syrup, salsas, baked goods savory and sweet, an excellent variety of hormone-free pasture raised meats, eggs, cheese, soaps, candles, gourd & wood crafts, and dried & fresh floral arrangements. Every season sees additional products in our vendors' stalls - in 2009, look for new items such as fruit vinegars, herbal oils, dog food hot dishes, farm compost, and more.

Come on down to the Rochester Downtown Farmers Market! Talk with our friendly vendors, tap your feet to the music, enjoy a breakfast sandwich or a delicious baked item while chatting with your friends. Many events held throughout the season - demos, sampling, kids activities, music, and Master Gardeners twice monthly in the summer months - updated weekly on our website.
