The Memphis Farmers Market is an outdoor market featuring local farmers that showcases locally grown produce and related food items from the Mid-South region. It also serves to educate the community about food choices. Buying directly from the growers allows shoppers to ask questions and get answers from the source.
There's plenty of free parking, shopping and entertainment under a shaded canopy with benches for relaxing and listening to live music. It also features cooking, plant and nutrition education demonstrations.
The Memphis Farmers Market will start with a two-week pre-season on April 19th so customers can purchase spring produce and in-season strawberries.
The regular market season begins May 3rd and runs until October 25th.
The Memphis Farmers Market is open every Saturday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Central Station downtown (Front Street at GE Patterson).
