Opening Day

This Saturday, May 4th, marks the return of one of our capital city’s most popular attractions: the downtown Des Moines Farmers’ Market. The market is open every Saturday from 7 a.m. till noon and features approximately 200 venders selling produce, baked goods, cheese, sauces and more. An average of 20,000 people visit the farmers’ market each Saturday. Check out their website to see a list of vendors, upcoming performers and parking maps.

Did you know the Des Moines Farmers’ Market was named one of America's Best Farmers Markets by Country Living magazine? What’s your favorite treat at the farmers market?
