?Successful farmers’ markets don’t just happen in the larger metropolitan areas on Saturdays, but they are also nestled in the foothills of the Ozarks. Fair Grove, MO, just 15 miles north of a major metro area-Springfield, has a small but mighty farmers’ market each Wednesday. Fair Grove’s Farmers’ Market won the Second Place Award in the 2009 Farmers’ Market of the Year, sponsored by AgriMissouri™ and the Missouri Farmers’ Market Association.
The Fair Grove Farmers’ Market is located under a pavilion at the Historic Wommack Mill in downtown Fair Grove. With a population of 1,100 and over 30 farmers/vendors participating throughout the season, the market is the community hub on Wednesdays from 3:30 p.m. – 7:00 p.m… April 22nd thru October 7th 2009.
The Market has become a great place for community groups to raise funds for their cause. The Market setting is unique in that it has a certified kitchen on the grounds, allowing the Market to offer prepared foods. Gary with Hilltop Pizza runs the Market Cafe. He uses as many products from the farmers’ market as possible.
Or maybe it is the Award Winning Growing with Kids Club that makes this market so different. All
Kids that sign up get a free plant or seeds to grow there own garden and get free advice from 2 master gardeners. This all free to the Kids.
Our Market has a lot to offer and it is worth the drive.
