It’s almost here!
Opening day of the Indiana County Farmers’ Market is Saturday, June 4th
from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon in the parking lot behind S&T Bank, at 8th
and Church in downtown Indiana. We are
excited to see many returning vendors, familiar faces, and some new vendors,
too! We welcome Lone Oak Farm, Fat Radish Farm, Uncle Henry’s Garden, Stutzman Farms, Longview Farm and Apiary, and Back to the Roots Farm this season. A full list of market vendors is available on our vendor page.
Look for a variety of fresh, local items, including
asparagus, rhubarb, greens like lettuce and kale, root veggies such as
radishes, carrots, and beets, strawberries, and herbs. Round out your shopping trip with baked
goods, honey, and locally-raised meats!
Wondering when your favorites will be in season? You can find a chart of popular PA vegetables

We also have lots of fun scheduled in our special tents

Community:
Council for Educational Travel (CETUSA) - A
not-for-profit international student exchange organization coordinating
exchange experiences for high school students in Indiana County, with a mission

Please remember that while we at the Farmers’ Market are
very fond of pets of all kinds, due to PA Department of Agriculture
regulations, no pets are permitted at the market. If you do bring a pet, please tie them up
outside the market. Sorry for any
inconvenience.
Bring the whole family for a morning of fresh, local foods,
community, and fun!
See you at the market!
