Market and Penn Street Farmers Market

Market and Penn Street Farmers Market was established in 1860, and is the oldest continuously operating farmers market in York. Owned by its farmers, the market provides the only source of fresh foods to residents living West of the Cordorus in York City. Many of the vendors accept vouchers, food stamps, EBT, Access, Visa and Mastercard.. There is a Rabbit Transit Bus stop next to the market, and also free off street parking every market day. During the growing season Farmers Market features a wealth of fresh, safe and economical York County fruits and vegetables. In the off season, produce is hand selected by the same farmers, so consumers can be assured that they are getting the very best! In addition to produce, the market features several exceptional butchers - all with local meats, a large deli with wonderful selections of lunch meats, cheeses and prepared foods, a cupcake bar featuring hand prepared gourmet cupcakes and baked goods. There are numerous restaurant stands offering home made soups, casseroles, sandwiches and baked goods and much more. Numerous other vendors are part of the market experience. The Market's website features information on the standholders, photos of the market, recipes, a kids page, produce schedule (in season), market history and more. A Friends of Farmers Market group has been established to help promote and protect this local treasure and move it forward into the 21st century while preserving the fine historical nature of the market.
